That checks out. And I agree, I don't think I'd even be able to tell at a glance the difference between 20 and 30.

Is there any chance that Hermosillo is sending out different tint levels to different states based on ordering dealership location? I assume not, but I've been seeing posts ranging from 20% to 35%, many of which state their "guy" matched whatever he added to the stuff on the back of the Mav already.

I am going to get my front windows tinted to match the back, and as I haven't ever had that done, I'm curious what people pay for that. My dealership offered to do it for $249 with a warranty, and given that they a) offered that unprompted, and b) included a warranty (which I don't honestly...

Well, whatever the issue was that led to this thread initially, my truck arrived this morning in Indianapolis! I'll be asking if they can figure out what the delay was (is for those still waiting with that delivery date pushed back), but we'll probably never know.

Maybe, except mine wasn't (isn't) a lariat. Maybe it shipped with only high class brethren.

Thanks for sharing this. I hadn't searched the stop ship term but that article points to a quality concern, which makes sense. I wonder how owners who already took delivery will be contacted - I'd have thought there would be posts from owners about recalls or whatever if that had happened...

Well no real surprise here, but neither Ford customer service online chat nor an agent on the phone were able to shed any more light. I asked directly about the stop ship notice, but both sources denied any knowledge of that and insisted that their Ford internal system simply shows the vehicle...

That's wild that it's still moving around with the stop ship designation on it. Maybe the stop will go into effect once it reaches NO tomorrow or whatever. As always, a little indication from Ford on this would be comforting and eliminate all this speculation. I'm also kind of amazed that you...

I'll be reaching out to Ford today to see what they can tell me. I have no idea what that "stop ship" note was about; nor did my dealership. But if I learn anything new today, I'll let everyone know.

Not really. Apparently it had a "stop ship" note in the comments on the dealer side, but the dealer wasn't sure what that meant. I'll be calling Ford Monday. Updates are in the thread below...

haha I hope you're right! I've got time, just so many factors at play these days...

I think Skillman in Greenwood has one currently that's not spoken for. They did the other day, anyway.

That's what I'm thinking, too. Figured I'd share this with the community on here to see if I'm alone or if there's a lot of similar hold up for people in the same boat.

Update: called my dealer (will call Ford eventually, too), who was able today to provide a rail car number finally, but on his end there's a line on the shipping notes that reads "stop ship". He wasn't sure what that meant or why it's on there - said he hadn't seen that particular message before.

Everything in this process can be set to automatically update the customer and dealership, but somehow we still have inconsistent and vague updates and notification. Just sucks having to pester everyone for any kind of answer when the plan we were given at the outset falls through repeatedly...

Yep. XLT with most of the options. See I agree, but at least if others are experiencing the same that seems like a shipping issue more than damage at delivery. Still could be a quality problem, but if they're not contacting guys who already took delivery I suspect it's just a shipping...

It could be shipping issues, sure. You're not worried about it at all? I'd just like to know what's really going on.

Will damage before delivery always be reflected in a car report like that? Even if it's fixed, I don't know that I'm interested in paying sticker price for a truck with repaired damage showing on its vehicle history already...I would have thought that if it was in manufacturer's hands the whole...

My issue with that is that I shouldn't have gotten any notice of shipping, nor should it have been scheduled to arrive today (per the tracker and discussion with my dealer) if it had somehow never left the plant. I agree, generally, I'd rather have them fix issues before I take delivery than...

Yeah will do. I'll see what I learn. I was hoping that it wasn't a widespread email that everyone got. So far it seems isolated - nobody else has responded having the same news at least.
