That's why I decided not to get a moon roof. I tend to keep vehicles a long time. Like really long time. I still have my 1994 chevy silverado I bough special order brand new. That's like 28 years. I typically try to not order options that might give me issues later on.
I was referring to the moonroof delaying the order... I'm sure the mechanism is fine.

I don't really feel like 3-9 months is different than 6-9 months... 😀

But it does give hope!

Local dealership called on Saturday and offered me a customer ordered XL Hybrid that fell out. $5k over MSRP. I demurred.

But do they have any takers? Or is this a vehicle they keep on the lot to attract attention and IF IF someone pays it they take the windfall and move on?
Not a vehicle to keep on the lot…that’s the price they plan to sell it at. Hybrid XL with the only options being 360, dealer bed mat, and trailer hitch. Smh.

Then they will be keeping it a very long time. That's really bad business ethics. I remember when dodge dealers were marking up challenger hellcats $10K-$20K. I was set to trade my 2007 mustang GT for one. My response to that was go choke on it. I dont need another car payment that bad.

Just found this on maverick mafia on fakebook. I really hope this doesnt push my order back to 2023. Maybe Zach knows. I ordered my AWD 4K tow on dec 28th. Will my order be affected by this? Or is it just recent orders as of let's say today. If so, I may have to get in touch with the fine folks at Granger Ford, and possibly remove that from my order.

I have seen many times where dealers will do extreme ADM to hold a new or rare model vehicle as a "display". If someone wants it bad enough they just sell their "display" for a tidy profit and move on. Otherwise, it draws attention to their lot and generates traffic in their door.

Salesman told me directly that’s what they plan to sell it at. Said they had 3 on the lot previously and all of them were sold to people who flew in to buy and drove them to their respective states.

Town & Country Ford in Evansville, IN had a base Lariat. I inquired about the truck and was told the sale price was 10k over the MSRP. It was gone the next week when I went by the dealership.

I'm guessing they have plenty of takers with deep pockets and no patience!

Well I can wait. Buys me time to save up more money for a down payment than I already have.

When did you place the first order? If it is ecoboost you should not see a 6 month wait.
Not see a 6 month wait. My EB lariat was ordered 5 1/2 months ago. Not scheduled for the next 2 1/2 months. That is 8 months without a build date.

@Granger Ford - I sent an updated email request to make modifications to my order, knowing this could change my place/time but I'm okay with that - how long does it usually take to get updates on these (not trying to be pushy, just see yall active here and want to set my own expectations)

Thanks!

We've had a couple people out sick and can't seem to catch up. I'd say 48-72 hours.

I just ordered mine with Granger yesterday.
Pretty simple.
Go to Ford website and "build" what you want.
Email them and attach the build
They got back to me in a couple of days
Confirmed the build, signed the document electronically, paid the deposit
Easy, peasy
Got my order confirmation within 30 minutes.
Take care, all
