Well it finally happened, last night I picked up my car. Took it home and gave it it's first bath, now its off to get PPF put on the front. I optioned for the midnight blue interior, and I know I wasn't able to find too many photos of what it looks like, so if anyone wants to see more let me know and I'll be happy to share. Its subtle enough but provides a nice bit of pop to the interior and really gives it a custom look. I've already gotten a few positive comments about it.

For those that are waiting, I feel your pain and the struggle is real trust me on that! Its an amazing car, and to have it optioned exactly the way you want it is what its all about.

I tried to post pictures but couldn't the the size right, so if anyone knows the specs required please share.

Not to bore but...

Months ago I searched all the local dealerships through the ford site and found very little that matched what I wanted.
EB Prem, loaded. I want everything on it. Shaker pro, Magneride, safe&smart. Everything. Thing is, I want it white and no spoiler.

I found one, but it's black with spoiler.
Talked to the dealer before it was even delivered. They were a pain to deal with, so I eventually said screw them and ordered through another dealer.

THAT second dealer never told me they didn't have allocations, so it never went through. (EDIT: Hours after I posted this, apparently the order went through. Two months after my order, and 1 day late though)

After that, the original one dropped in price. 42k sticker going for 35k. Sounds good enough for me to get over the black color and spoiler.

I could have had this car over a month ago, but waiting and the BS that happened saved me about 4k after all is said and done. Fully loaded EB Prem for less than 40 OTD. I'll have to deal with another black car - but I'll deal. (Looks great, but a real pain to keep clean)

Anyways, no longer dealing with an order, and should have it next week.


EDIT: Also, if anyone in the DFW/Austin area is interested in a white EB prem PP 201A with all boxes check (spoiler delete red int) keep an eye on this vin: 1FA6P8TH3J5239703 - I expect it to hit cotus next week.
While I'm not pleased the dealer didn't mention the allocation thing, they've been very good to work with. They've even tried to help me after they knew I was going a different route.

Well, I finally got the car I ordered in Aug 2017. I picked it up yesterday and have 60 miles on it as of today. Awesome, Awesome...The 10 speed tranny is unbelievable. I thought I had a problem with the shocks, but realized the lane change option was vibrating the steering wheel. First time with that option. Wicked fast and responsive. Lightning Blue is to die for. The dealer Tinted it and next week it goes in for Strips and Xpel wrap. Good luck to everyone waiting for there cars. It is worth the wait.

I will hopefully receive my car on Monday or before. And quite honestly I'm hoping I get it before! Fingers crossed! My dealer hasn't given me a way to track it while in transit. Which sucks!!!

Who is doing the xpel for you in AZ? The guys up in Scottsdale seem high priced. I want to get another price before I do it.

And yes! well worth the wait!

Another thursday came and went. Still nothing in COTUS (order date 12/20). In the event my dealer doesnt have allocation, will it not even show up in COTUS? Or is it the case, even if dealer doesnt have allocation, it will show up in COTUS?

Also, do dealers get fresh allocation every month? Say, if my dealer didnt have allocation in December, will they get one in January? I am just speculating if the delay is due to dealer having no allocation. I dont know for sure.

I ordered on 12/8. Samething. I called my salesman Monday he said the two week holiday shutdown has things backed up, and I should have heard something on 1/11. But nothing. Hopefully this week.

 

[HeavyMetalMonk]

Yeah my sales guy keeps saying the same thing "next week probably"...but here we are, still no info. Ford doesn't know anything either. They can't tell me a thing.
I did however find the exact car I specified in a lot in Texas...so maybe I'll buy that one. I'm going to swing by my dealer soon and see what they can find for me. I feel like I'm being jerked around and it's pissing me off.
Ordered 12/5.

You have to realize some of us ordered in July/August(me) and have yet to receive their cars. So trust me it's coming. Just gotta be patient. You ordered last month....

Just texted my salesman and he said my car should be there soon. I'm getting so impatient its not even funny!!

Yeah I hear you. I'm not so much pissed off about no car as I am about no info. I don't need it right now, I just want to know WTF is going on!

Hopefully, my car will still come in on Monday. I know there is snow in TN. But hopefully, my car is already in NC or SC.
