So i got the "your car has been built" email today, and i'm 97.3% sure that i clicked the Track My Order button, and the status was at the "built" bubble. I clicked it again this evening, because i was "testing my internet", and now the built bubble is cleared. Delivery date didn't change. i...
Someone cropped the picture too short. There's another line at the bottom that says "Car represented above will be sold as a demo unit for MSRP after we're through with it".
Only issue is on 4 lane roads, people will cut in front of you when you try to stay in your safe space behind leading vehicles. Where I'm at, the only way to totally avoid them is to never leave 2 lane roads.
I do wonder if even the paint color makes the difference, like if they run paint production in batches. I ordered this exact car in Iconic Silver in 4/29, latest production date email listing week of August 9, blend date of 8/4, and tracker flagged it going into production on 8/4, and that's...
A scenario that this applies to would be if you totaled your only vehicle and needed to get up and running ASAP. Automobile "unenthusiasts" just want 4 wheels and air conditioning, so Ford might lose that customer base, unless some vehicles are kept in stock.
I've researched on "over the stripe versus to the stripe" and i think i've reconciled that i'll almost certainly lose the stripe WHEN i have to refresh the PPF as it ages or it gets misapplied, or i MAY lose the PPF before the same refresh date due to early lifting, so i've decided to cut out...
Honestly, if moving toward the custom order model wouldn't adversely impact the cost to the buyer, i think i'd prefer this, only when the ordered car is known to me. If there's a test drive model, that would possibly solve the unknowns. I do wonder if Zach@Granger is willing to share his take...
Jay, I'm expecting an IS Mach 1 to come to your lot maybe in the next 5-6 weeks (Aug 9 Build Date). Did you talk to the shop about cutting out for the hood stripe? If so, what would it cost to PPF front bumper and whole hood (less stripe)? Can we get more details about who they are, what they...

If you're near Iowa, Jay@Granger Ford is slapping the Roush on for $8500 installed, and i think they'll do the Whipple when it comes in late August, but not sure of the price.
If an F150 isn't fun on tail of the dragon, you weren't paying attention to the instructor when he covered understeer ;) just kidding. i'm planning on taking my mach 1 on the road trip to track attack.
Is anyone planning on taking what you learn to the Tail of the Dragon near Pigeon Forge on your travels back home, if it's somewhat near your route? i'll travel right through there to get to/from Charlotte.
