2005 Mustang order status

[Mike McRann]

Ok that is total BS. What that means is someone who works at the plant like a production superintendent, plant manager...whoever....took that car home one night. They took it home and returned the next day and it was shipped out as long as they did not find any issues with the car. It does not delay it by 10 days.

Dealers are so f-ing stupid!

I've talked to Dave about my car's status in IM and e-mail, and he tells me the same thing Ford Customer Care tells me...your car is in a Temp Delay w/ no other details. Dave also tells me that I have a build date within 10 days (per our IM).
But the dealer tells me something different...that their system doesn't show any delays, and that the car is being built and will be here in mid December.

So who's telling me the truth? The dealer or Ford?
I know whichever story is true isn't going to get the car any faster...when it's here it's here, so all I can do is sit back and wait and see what happens.

Madhouse, your vehicle is currently being built.

Dave - thanks a bunch man!

Is there a railcar number assigned to my order now? I wonder if it's still sitting in the yard?

I checked out the web link included by wolfman064 regarding priority codes. A very detailed explanation to be sure but I was left wondering just what it all meant! I just want to know if a priority code of 20 actually means anything to me, the buyer, in terms of manufacture and subsequent delivery date? Is it good, bad, or indifferent (or meaningless altogether)?

 

[KTP Dave]

Priority codes.....as far as I know your order gets built when they can build it. If everyone had high priority someone would always have to be at the bottom. I already explained this before....even if you have low priority you may get made before someone that has high priority.

Well, I called that 1-800 number, and gave the guy my VIN. He said my car was scheduled to be delivered yesterday. So, I called the dealer, and didn't get and answer. I left a message 2 1/2 hours ago and they have yet to call back.

Good times.

Got mine last Thursday.

Don't fret. If you have a delivery date, then you will get your car (unless it gets damaged in shipping - heaven forbid). I (luckily) live close to the plant so my shipping took a day or so. You live a ways away so your shipping will be longer than mine. They normally give a week for shipping. Mine said 11/17-11/24 and it came in on the 18th.
