Well it looks like mine didn't make it to shipping before the holiday. My EDD is still 1/12 but I was hoping it would get moving like so many others have. Oh well.
Yeah, same here... Mine was built on the 22nd, and changed to awaiting shipment on the 23rd, where it still sits.

Less than 3 weeks? Wow, congrats!
Yup he's in Michigan which is why. I ordered on 12/2, my car was built on the 15th and I would have gotten it today but there was a train delay. If I lived in MI I would have had it. So yes, if yall want build times like us, get a priority 1.

Mine was built 12/15, currently "In Transit", with an EDD of 1/4/2015 (per COTUS).

You make it sound like it is our fault that we don't have a priority 1. Or that it is something dealerships can just give out left and right.

A dealership cannot give out an 01 priority. Only Ford itself can issue a priority under 10. 10 is the highest dealership priority.

Second, the priority only matters to scheduling. Once the car is scheduled to be built priority means nothing.

The only correct statement was being in Michigan, delivery is under 5 days because they truck it over; it doesnt have to get loaded/unloaded onto a train and then convoyed to the dealership.

Yeah a dealer can infact get you a priority 1. They call up their Ford rep and certainly can get one ordered. They don't originate from outer space. If your dealer has sway with the Ford rep, you're golden. That's how I got my priority 1.

Scheduling is the primary thing. What the heck else is time contingent upon an order? Its getting the scheduled date. Thats where the hangups lie. The guy was asking how to get a car 3-4 weeks from your order date. Simplest way is to get a priority 1.

I hear ya. However you keep throwing out this priority 1 like it is a common, easy thing. And in my experience on this site, the hangup isn't so much the scheduling as it is the shipping. Of course a lot of that has been attributed to early orders prior to manufacturing. I am ok with my scheduled 8 weeks considering some who are at double digit weeks but someone telling me to just get a higher priority pisses me off a little. It might be in your delivery. :shrug:
