I think there's some reason to be hopeful. I was surprised at how quickly mine arrived from Mexico; it was actually a few days early. I think the rail delays may be resolving, if they can keep in on the tracks.
Not that I'm aware of, but I do plan to be there. Unfortunately I'll be driving my wife's Explorer to haul all our family and stuff from Connecticut. We'll also be visiting my son, a Ford Engineer. (Yes, he still has a job)
I picked up my XLT Ecoboost yesterday. Sorry for the crummy pic, but its been pouring rain here for two days. The hot pepper red was a last minute decision I made when I ordered last July 19th, and I'm glad I did it.
I'm still getting used to it after coming out of a 300C for several years...
I'm picking up my new truck on Saturday. The salesman told me that I'm not responsible for the price increase; I get the price at the time I ordered and put the deposit down. It depends on how the dealer put the order in.

I got it too, but deleted it without clicking the link in case it was a phishing email. If Ford is behind it, you would think they would have at least made sure you received your vehicle before looking for feedback!
I had a "79 El Camino (I know, not really a truck) and an '84 B2000, which only died due to a frame fracture. I'm honestly not a Ford fan, and have had crappy luck with them over the years. However, the Maverick seems to be the only game out there that fits my needs, and I'm now on a AZ...
I had the opportunity to ride in a pre-production prototype about 2 years ago. (I have some connections). I didn't get to drive it, but from the ride it seemed solid, roomy, and punchy enough with the 2.0 Ecoboost.
I'm an old guy that was brought up on big V8's and RWD, and still love my...
