So Friday 4/8 i got another email from Ford with another build week pushback for my 4x4 Lariat. I think I have had 6 build week date changes since ordering early December 2021. My current build week is 5/2 and at this pace, have little faith that date will hold. I noticed the auto stop start delete was added to my order long ago. That is fine, didn't like that feature on other vehicles. Just wondering what my prority number is now. I haven't bothered Chip or anyone at Granger yet. I know it is out of their control. Just curious why I keep getting pushed back. I hope not for fender liners !!! I'd take it without them LOL
I went though the same, pushed many times. Ordered a lariat 502a 10/08, picked up yesterday. 6 months beginning to end.

The reason you keep getting pushed is because of parts constraints- plain and simple. When Ford has a vendor delay expected parts, truck builds needing them get pushed out. I went through the KC plant getting shut down twice for a week for no parts.

Be patient, yours wiil be built. Ford most definitely wants to sell you a truck.

Your signature reminds me, I wish I could get a lighter color leather in my Tremor.

Wish Space White was available for the DB trucks.

How long does it usually take from the build date to taking delivery of the truck at the dealer?

Aw man. One of our own has ascended. I'm happy and sad, well deserved for the wait you were dealing with.

Bannerman,

Not to be a Debbie Downer, but does being scheduled for production really mean anything? I got a VIN and production date the day after I submitted my order to Chip in early December. On build date change number fifty-eleven at this point. Scheduling dates don’t mean anything at Ford in my opinion.

Well it's movement in the right direction at least. Getting a VIN the day after you order is unheard of though......

(By the way if you put @ in front of the username it tags them, @Franger

Yes, Chip told me as much. It was very unexpected to get a VIN within 24 hrs of order confirmation. Perhaps that is why I’m so down on the process. Orig build date of 2/7, now 5/2.

yeah seeing that date keep moving would be frustrating, but chin up, with as many folks getting scheduled today, they much have some parts in place for builds and you appear to be in the front of the line.

Quick turnaround on schedule week! My wait was almost 2 months so let’s hope they produce it and ship it ASAP!
