What could possibly go wrong at this point - Car hauler catches fire on I-94

Those numbers seem to run counter to what Ford stated in a press release last September (.... The 2011 F-150 SVT Raptor is proving to be incredibly popular. Ford is seeing a significant increase in overall volume, as well as increased interest in the new SuperCrew option, with take rates at more...

To bad it wasn't around when you had the run in with the 7-foot carjacker earlier in the year.

It's the factory not the dealership that assigns estimated delivery dates. If you have a build date, there's likely a estimated delivery day/week assigned. Mine was build on May 16th and delivered on the 20th (just outside Chicago).

More than likely you can get a substantually better price on a Ford ESP from one of the dealerships that specialize in selling them over the internet. I picked up a 7year/60K premiumcare with a $50 deductable for $760. This compares to the $1,180 offered by my dealership for the same ESP.

I added navigation to my order after seeing it's features real time. In addition to the capabilities mentioned above, the screen allows a larger backing up view. The change set my order back a couple of weeks in terms of getting pulled (was priority 1 when added), but was well worth it long...

Appreciate the updates Vash. I also have a Monday build, so it should model pretty close to what you're seeing. It also gives me some insight on when to use me Blue Oval update requests.

Hopefully the "waiting for transport" doesn't drag on too long. If your transport is by convoy (truck) it should be at the dealership soon (once shipped). Rail seem to be more of a crapshoot.

Ford Customer Care is 800/392-3673. After you work through the menu and have a representative on the line you'll need to provide the order number and dealership number (from the order printout (DORA) that your dealer should have provided). Mention that your not getting any information from the...

That's good news Vash. Tuesday you should see either the "ramp 59" reference or even better "in shipment". Mine's about a week behind.

Congratulations on the VIN. Window stickers are available about 6 days prior to the build date. You can use the attached link for the window sticker. How to Track Ford Factory Car Orders

Agree - I'm scheduled for the week of the 16th.
