October Hybrid Orders United

[OXHB619]

Hello. Can I ask when you received the email from Ford confirming your build date? I ask because I stopped by my dealer yesterday to discuss the 6/29 email, and he informed me that I was scheduled for the August 29th build (Lariat Lux hybrid w/ 360, 10/23/21 order date, for those of you keeping score. And according to him, there are no restrictions). He said he received an email and that I should get one as well. But I'm just curious when you found out.

I used Ford chat Friday around 2:30 CST to ask, just for shits and giggles. I have not gotten an email, just the VIN and current build week from Ford Chat.

I was wondering what options YOU have, just trying to figure out what might be the difference on the push back. Thanks.

cyber orange xlt cp360,hitch,rear window,cab inverter and floor mats. I would think it probably has to do with allocations.

This is how I found out on Saturday as well…..chat. I texted my sales guy to tell him and he replied with “great”. The only emails we will (or should) now get are when we get an actual build Day, usually a few days to a week in advance.

Okay. So we're both waiting for an email, lol.

Okay. So I shouldn't hold my breath waiting for the email.
Thanks for the response.

You now only get the email when you are scheduled to a build day rather than a build week. That happens much closer to production than them assigning it a build week.

Got it. Thanks for the info. I'm not going to believe it until it's sitting in my driveway.

Well if you've got a VIN, it's a sure thing.

Not yet. Hence my apprehension. Thinking I'll reach out to Ford at the end of the week to check.

Assume this was in an email to you? Was that a build day or build week? I didn’t think build dates were assigned until a week or so in advance.

Ugh! Trying to talk to my dealer about removing constraints and he has all but ghosted me. Tried to raised this with Ford and they said there is nothing they can do... WTH??? Trying to set myself up with a chance to get built this year and getting ghosted is frustrating.

Can you go into the dealership? A customer complaining in their lobby about not getting good service is not good for their sales. You should get a response there.

That is probably what I am going to have to do tonight after work. I hate being that guy, but with Ford's deadline tomorrow I want to give my truck a chance.
