GT Track pack 2013 models might not start building next week..

here is a little reply from a regional manager.

"Just as a heads up, order P8C/B139 & B141 both have the 55R GT Track Pkg which we have very low availability. These orders may not schedule next week. I will have Detroit pull the allocation for these 3 orders so at least we can save the allocation if they do not schedule."

That sucks, can't wait for pics of your car when you get it. That is the exact way I would have gotten mine if I would have waited. except in black.

Well it means that there are parts not available to complete the build more then likely.
When I've cautioned others about scheduling and etas this is the sort of thing that crops up. Sometimes you know of it before the unit even schedules and other times the vehicle is held after build because of a quality or fitment type of issues.

Jeff or Brian probably need to answer what that means, or perhaps Deysha as well.

I'll have to take a look at the commodities sheet we get (I'll get a new one on Monday). It shows what parts are low volume on each model. With the low volume of parts, it restricts orders being scheduled since the parts supply is low. These things are only temporary and will clear up in time.

That would be nice. Would like to know that.
But alas, it is only temporary, cool.

going for broke and 05fordgt, pretty much summed it up, kcoTiger. Supplies may come up short, but this is temporary.

I would also guess that the Bosses had priority over GT's since they have some common parts now with that package?

Just keep checking with me, JeffL. Remember, the Boss schedules by dealer allocation.
