Ford is screwing with me

[mikejohn13]

I ordered my Maverick on July 24 got the confirmation email before I left the dealership.
About 10 days later I got the VIN and build date.
Then that week came the track my build said on the 25th of September built and will ship in 3 to 5 days.
Minutes later it changed to shipped arriving in 11 to 17 days
Then moments later it changed again to shipped arriving on the 17th of October then that changed to TBD.
This morning I got an email from FORD confirming it was built and I will get it by December 16 -22
But I checked the track my order again and it still says in production and TBD.
WTF.
Who did I piss off at Ford

The tracker vs. the emails don't always align.
As for arrival dates, those do shift. It's a combination of what vehicles are queued up to ship, rail times, convoy times, and with the Hybrids, the OKTB just hitting recently. And then someone has to find the most optimum delivery routes/logistics. I've seen them shift 8 or 9 times in a single day while they are working out the details.

Generally, the window for delivery is 4 to 6 weeks after production. As long as it's within that window, I wouldn't worry too much. They are just trying to optimize the logistics of delivery. They will continue to change until it gets loaded on something (railcar/convoy) and locked in.

Thanks
When I saw the email I started jumping for joy
but the tracker bummed me out.
It's not the first time Ford let me down.
So I guess I'll start jumping for joy again

You received a build date 10 days after order confirmation. Ford has been extra nice to you.
