Did you get a signed purchase agreement when you ordered stating no dealer add-ons and the exact price they will charge you? Make sure they give you price protection to the price when you ordered it, not the extra $500 price increase on the sticker. They aren't mandated that they have to protect it but Ford says honest dealers will.My XLT is on its way finally. Supposed to be here around the first week in September. What extra $ should I keep an eye out for. I never get extended warranty. They said they had to go over it once it arrives. How true is that?
Thanks for all your help through this last year.
How long did you wait from Built to Shipped? On my 2022, it was less than a week. On my 2023 I'm in week two..... and counting.My XLT is on its way finally.

That’s kinda what happened to me too.
It’s was almost simultaneously done. Just a couple of days from build to shipped. That was Monday. It’s not supposed to be here until after Labor Day.
That’s about what I’m looking at. As of Monday it was on the rail and should be here week of Labor Day.
Update: got ahold of my dealer and explained that.... hey it's been 2 weeks since it was built...and I had my 2022 in 10 days... From build to sitting in my drive way.... So can you find out what the issue is.... And yes I understand to get to Tucson they leave Hermosillo go North to Phoenix on a rail car then are transported back to Tucson.... Anyway the dealer was actually helpful.... He emailed me some official Ford thing that looked like it was produced on software from the 1990s... Expected delivery August 24th. Interesting thing is... Website says it was born on August 1st, official 1990s software print out says August 3rd.
The luck of the Irish does not apply to me today. LOL.
Thanks, I know he can check VinView but I’m not too worried about it yet. If I can’t get any updates from CSX over the next couple weeks I will hit him up again. It’s only been a day.
Sorry don't recall.
From my 30+ years of Ford knowledge with my friends and family employees, sometimes AFTER a vehicle is built, they discover some minor issue on the assembly line. First task is to fix the problem on the line so they don't make more cars that need work. Second task is to examine cars built but not shipped, and then move them to the back lot where they fix them prior to shipping. This latter deal can take hours, days or weeks depending on what the issue might be. These are not recall issues, but could be something as simple as adjusting a torque setting, or the amount of adhesive applied to a trim piece.
