I just talked to Ford Performance about my November 2015 R order. It's still in Unscheduled Material Hold, but he said that he's seen some R orders "being pulled" for March builds. He confirmed that the Sport Cup 2 tires were the reason for no winter builds.

Interesting. I was in Detroit last week and I attended the Rouge River Assembly Plant tour where they build the F-150's and the Raptor. I took that opportunity to "socially network" with some of the friendlier Ford employees.

When asked, the tire shortage was their understanding as well but they couldn't be sure. It was the same "rumor" they heard internally.

While I was there I asked about the new Raptor and the people were fired up. They said that when a Raptor comes down the line it sticks out like a sore thumb and gets a lot of attention.

Great tour. I highly recommend it.

Well, Michelin's old statement to Chevy said ambient temps needed to be greater than 28 degrees to "move" the Z06's. They might have a similar arrangement with Ford.

Starting 3/7/16 the temps look good enough to me.

Good news, six (5-techs 1-base) 350Rs are scheduled for production the week of 2/29/16.

Is there a way to see the combos of what is being built?

I see 49 Rs w/ electronics and 6 base being built.

I hope one of the 4 AG Rs is mine.

Lol - I know, I was counting them thinking, maybe one of those cars is mine! Nothing but bad luck lately...if I didn't have bad luck, I'd have none at all.

It's production stats as of week 2/29/16. The numbers were derived by comparing the same stats from the beginning of February.
