As I said Ford has not released any more info since last Monday. I work at a dealership and I follow this very closely.
The November date is way off from fords 9/9 "goal", unless we're talking about the convertible which should arrive late October early November, assuming no delays for convertibles that is.
Ok I apologize. Not trying to go against the grain. Just trying to get some resolution as to what I was told by my dealer.

Nothing to apologize about , Sir.
You're just the messenger :)
Just curious as how this one dealer was contacted and told about the push back whole other dealers were left in the dark. :eyebulge:

No worries, take the "Mike Wallace" approach when getting information. Ask yourself and the dealer questions, like if FRAP was delaying production a month, wouldn't CNN know first since there would be a huge layoff right before back to school. There is no one going to let thousands of UAW workers just sit around and not make the 5 oclock news.

And the "My Dealer said" doesn't hold much Mustard unless it is from someone like Risingforce who closely watches the Mustang. Just last week, I was picking up some Ford literature on the 50th LE, when one of the sales managers said, "yeah, it should be a collectible, they are only making 1400 of them" I was talking to the GM at the time who didn't look happy as I was laughing and shaking my head. Not everyone is a Mustangaholic, but managers at the least should be in the know.

Yeah I am learning quickly that just because you sell mustangs doesnt mean you know much. Just like me eating a banana doesnt make me a monkey.

Thanks for the stress reliever guys, very glad im on here and we gave true enthusiats backing us up.

Any events in FL
Check out the regional thread if you haven't already. There are a few events and a bit of chatter about getting together.

My Salesman at my local Ford Dealership who sold me my most recent 2 Ford Vehicles attempts daily to submit a legitimate 2015 Ford Mustang Convertible Order for me but to date, the unscheduled order bank simply states Commodities/Material Hold on Parts and awaiting JOB 2 for Convertible production. One day he`s going to call or text me and say, "The Order Was Accepted with Prices" finally! Maybe by late July?

Kinda like my idiot dealer. He told me guard was not a color, I must be looking at the dealer installed accessories and still swears he can't order one. I am not ready to place my order yet so I have not bothered correcting him. With a little luck, I might be able to grab the first allocation even with a late order. But yeah, totally clueless. When asked if he had any info on the new Mustang he just said "no". I was not asking for insider secrets. This was back in may, I just wanted some info. No. Trucks are the big sell here. They don't have a single new Mustang on the lot. And have not had one this year to my knowledge.

It might be good to check what their allocation situation is before you place an order with them. If they aren't selling many Mustangs, they might not be able to get that many orders made available to them.

In Slvrback's defense my dealer also said November. I'm out of Philadelphia if that makes a difference. I know from my past experience ordering it typically takes around 2 months from showroom to driving and that is when it's in the middle of a model year and they aren't just kicking off a big new model.

Obviously, I hope I get it in September, too!

I guess that pushes 2015 Mustang Convertible ordering from late July until mid August!
