8/2 Build Week

[Littlefield82]

Glad to see some of us are getting their trucks. Took delivery of mine today.

Did it come by rail or convoy and was it early or late? Did the Ford tracker ever update?
Also congrats…happy to see someone getting new rides.

Well today was my day. Extremely happy so far. Many tiny scratches from the transport. And FordPass isn’t cooperating although it’s tracking my journeys. Very pleased with the ride and the adaptive cruise. Also who ever said unleashed was junk is full of sh**.

Also I was offered 0% for 60 and 72 or 1000 trade assist. All offers ended today

Thats bad ass!!!!!

So it went on rail from Dearborn to Chicago then convoy from there. Estimated ETA was 9/21. Was actually delivered 9/4 over night.

Congrats! Nice truck! Liking the 2-tone in those colors.

You can take me off this list as I'm going rogue and buying a dealer-ordered truck off the lot. My original order is still in chip-hold and no telling when it will actually ship.

How do you know it was in chip hold

At last! The list begins to get shorter! (Though one was resolved by bail-out ).

Congrats to DuckDuckGreyDuck, who is still waiting, but is our FIRST escapee from the Limbo List! And to Victimofareload who made their own luck by buying a different truck)

I just found this group. I belong too. 8/6 build - 8/30 delivery now pushed to 9/14 for chips. Hi.

Your dealer should have access to the Vehicle Visibility Report (VVR) which shows more detail than the public trackers. Last week, the VVR for many in this thread changed, having a note saying "Microchip hold at plant" (or something along those lines)

 

[Chief Bast]

Amazing is right. Here is what the GM just emailed me "You can only lock in the rebates based off the month you ordered and the month it arrives. Thank you!"

So I can't lock in the 0% for 72 months because it has not arrived even though it's supposed to be here on 9/14 (chip hold likely going to push that).

Sadly, I think the GM you spoke with is blowing smoke. My dealership made it clear I could choose whichever incentives were better - at the time of order or at the time of arrival. Clearly the 0% was a better deal and the sales director was kind enough to make the switch in their system from my original custom order to a dealer stock truck that is coming in within the next week or two.

Regarding the 0% for 72mo. My dealership (Germain Ford Beavercreek) said today the 0% is extended through October. So, there is some breathing room. Anyone else confirm with their dealer today?

Got some more info from my buddy at ford.
Chip hold confirmed.

cell in row G says "Micro Chip at Plant on Hold" not sure what that means

 

[Cbaka27]

For those of you who your est delivery date has come and gone how far did your new delivery date get pushed out? My original dates of 9/15-9/21 are not going to be met so I'm curious what my new dates will be.

 

[Morinvok]

Anyone else having an issue with the tracker giving an error again?

How do you know it was in chip hold

Yep, as Dresdie say, my salesman pulled up my original order on the VVR. Confirmed that it was on "chip hold." He or she is going to be the only way to confirm this information for you unless Ford Performance Chat has VVR access.
