I honestly think the dealers tell us everything they know. Ford on the other hand should invest in an online tracking system. It is not hard, they just haven't made it a priority and don't seem to care. Cotus works for 2015s, it is not hard to code it to work with 2016s.

I agree, it isn't the dealers and it isn't Deysha or any other customer service rep. I am sure they are telling us everything that they are authorized to. I am frustrated with Ford...

I was an owner of a VW affected by the emissions scandal, maybe I am being overly sensitive.

nortoncommando - I plugged a 2015 VIN into cotus just for S&Gs and wished to hell it worked for 2016s :ford:

Deysha told me no news for me yet. 19 days in limbo.

Me too!!! I literally sold my TDI the day before the scandal! Been without a car since then.

Just got a message from my dealer.... They think my car is still in Michigan. They said the tracking we have been seeing is the Railcars probably.... Not the actual car.

I feel for you guys with no cars. I really do. I'm hesitant to post pics of nine....don't want to come off as if I'm bragging. I had the dealer leave all the factory stickers and they did not wash the car so it is FILTHY. I'm headed out of town for a week so it may have to sit dirty in the garage until I get back. We'll see.

Several observations:
-Panel gaps look great.
-Ford does a shit job painting the door jambs. I looked at several other cars there and found the same. The door hinge area does not have full paint coverage.
-our cars must've sat outside the entire time they were on hold. It was FILTHY.
- love the recaros, but at 185 lbs in almost too fat for them
- once warmed up I noticed an engine "tick" that is most pronounced from the passenger side wheel well. Barely noticeable now, I hope it doesn't get worse.
-headlights work great
- car has tons of power. I'm sure I'll get used to it soon and it won't impress me anymore, but it's been a couple years since I sold my last performance car. And this feels extra fast.

Ford rep is supposed to call me by tomorrow. If not, I will just cancel order and buy one off a lot and be done with it.

I'm close to the same. Already found a replacement.

I'd be almost happy to just know where it is...

ManBearPig, please post pics. We need some break in the monotony.

Post pics so we can all see the light at the end of the train tunnel.... Not bragging, just letting us live vicariously through you! Give that poor baby a bath before you put her away for a week!

Can't figure out how to put them right side up either. I'm working on it
