Yeah it was funny I just text my salesman to ask about the car, and my next text was going to ask if I can finalize the paperwork tomorrow (more convenient for me than Monday anyway), so that I can lock in the rebates and rates...but now looks like I can just finalize WITH the car! :ford: Was hoping to do that, since I wasn't super comfortable finalizing without seeing the car (you never know what could be wrong once delivered!) :headbonk:
I share your concern (but) worst case,if the Vehicle arrived damaged or in suspect condition, you could still "kill the deal" until you actually Register the Car, have its Title transferred and you drive off the Lot. Yeah, they would be hating it, lots of paper work to re-due (but) if they had to locate you a replacement through a Dealer Swap or even "re-order", they would do what they have to do. No one can make you "take delivery" of a Car that doesn`t meet or exceed your expectations. I`ve done it both ways, Car present and Car yet not arrived and to date, its worked out both ways in the past.
My biggest issue is even getting the right grill ordered from a parts department. I started a new thread a while back about doing this swap...see link below. I called two dealers parts departments and both were clueless on what I'd need to order. Worth asking your dealer though! I plan to swap it myself...should be pretty easy I'd think...
I actually ordered mine from Lakewood Ford so not going quite THAT far :ford:Maggie has to go NORTH to Loveland and yours SOUTH to CS so probably not the same truck.
We may be on the same train but honestly I hope we are on different trains. If we are on the same one or the other of us will have to wait much longer. New orleans seems to be the end of the line for many of the routes as does Florida. Kentucky seems to be the spot where trains head more southwest or more south east. But hey, at least they are moving. On last trace mine had just left Danville, Kentucky.
That second photo looks like the preproduction model Ford used for the unveiling which is indeed Magnetic. Ingot doesn't really shine/reflect like that whereas Magnetic pops under the lights. Same reason I switched to magnetic :cheers:
I think your correct. My Dealer emailed me today and confirmed that my long awaited Vehicle is in fact passing through Kentucky. I believe that is where our Car Carriers will be put with different Locomotive Crews to haul the Cars to their respective new homes. Since UPS has their Air Hub Terminal in Louisville, I assume it also must be home to a massive Rail Yard too.
I found that photo on this site. And yes, that is Magnetic.
