Nice Congrats, that's a long wait! I wonder if the orders that are getting filled with beadlocks are only the older orders? Even though you added the beadlocks later in your order...

Its all about allocation and how ford divys it up between dealers.
Some crazy algorithm.

I was #3 of 5 allocations.
#1 allocation is still locked at Ramp 59.
#2 was built 1/16 and delivered last week
Dealer had 2 dealer orders show up last week also.
Now mine as #3.

#4 & 5 have not been pulled yet.

Still "unscheduled clean/order processing" here, and had the forged wheels from the get-go on July 30th....hopefully it gets pulled soon.

I don't have the BL but I do have the CF. Same boat since Aug 13. Every thurs or Fri I cringe before hitting send on messenger when I know what the answer will be.

Cobber,
I know you don't have the beadlocks, but did anyone ever say anything about delays/commodity constraints to you at Gus?

Ages ago, Dec sometime supposedly one of their sales peeps heard about delays and if I wanted to get earlier then remove CF. So I did for 2 weeks and after nothing I said screw it. Since then it's been quiet. Just recently my sales guy said the carbon package has loosened. God I hope that means I have a chance. But then see others being told remove both still. I guess it depends on what they have the least of. If more CF floating around than BL then CF gets the pick or vice versa. I think all the old orders have one or the other or both. Considering only 3 of Gus allocations have been chosen I hope one of us is next and soon.

Mine has Beadlocks, I didn't order it. Just happened to find one enroute to a dealer on 1/20. Purchased on 1/23.

I will say that today I received a call from the dealer I was on the list for and said he had an allocation for me, as long as I did not want CF or beadlocks.

Ordered 8/17 with CF and BL's. 5K deposit.
Told by my dealer on 11/14 that if I dropped the CF it would be scheduled real soon, so I did.
Scheduled around 11/21 for first week in January, got pushed out to January 23.
Built week of Jan 23. Estimated delivery of Feb 14
Last update by dealer was that it was on a rail just few towns from the dealer and it would be unloaded then shipped by truck to them, that was last week. I ordered from a dealer six hours away to get it at MSRP, following a lead from someone on this forum.
