I feel your pain. I went through pretty much the same thing with mine. I really didn't think I was going to get it. Took 4 months, from May to September, and there was a couple of shutdowns during the wait, but I must say, I love it, sure you will too. The article didn't say how long the shutdown would be, so that kinda sucks.

but i assume even though my update page says it’s in production, it’s not?

I guess if they're not open it's not. For me the whole ordering process was weird. Once it said it was built on the tracking website, that was it, nothing else happened. The site said it would be shipped and had an arrival date, but after that, all the info on the tracking site was gone. VIN and everything. I thought, well that was strange. So, after a few more weeks, I decided to call my dealer about it. He said that once it's shipped they remove the info. I got the arrival date from my dealer and it arrived earlier than the date he had given me. I don't think you can figure it out. Very strange, not a great overall experience, but I sure love the car.

This reminds me of an argument (stupid, I know) I got in with a Ford dealer a few weekends ago when I tried to order a Mach 1 and they tried to spring a markup on me. “Well it’s because they’re so exclusive and rare right now.” No, they’re not exclusive and rare, Ford just isn’t doing a good job making them right now. Don’t pretend like that’s actually a virtue worthy of extra cash.

Anyway, I’m ordering from Granger

Well shit, mine was supposed to be next week too lol. Figures. Wonder if that is the reason my window sticker is not filled out

With all these delays makes one glad to have a car these days.

and I got a two week bump, so I assume they intend to be shut down first week of november as well. did anyone get a bump to 01 NOV week?

i called ford performance to check on mine to see...so my build date is the 7th, which now definitely isn't. but he said they aren't tied to production so he can't see delays, but to ask my dealer, and if the salesman doesn't know, there's a zone rep for them that would know and could be in touch with the factory to ask...so i asked my sales guy to hit that rep up and find out if they know anything else. i'm just annoyed as all hell with that. this chip shortage is such an absolute joke and makes us look pathetic relying on others for everything here!

Well F***, especially for us HP ones.

hang in there Jason...you're almost home! I went through a two week shutdown during my build in July. They announced it right before my production was supposed to start and I still took delivery before their official estimate. You're in line...be patient. It will be worth all the aggravation!
