Two days ago she said that as of July 14th I was scheduled for the week of Aug 15th.
Yesterday she said as of Aug 16th, I was locked-in for the week of Aug 15th. Then today she said as of Aug 16th, I was scheduled for the week of Aug 15th.
Two questions: Why would she give an "as of date" that is in the future, and why did it go from "locked-in" back to "scheduled"? :bang:
I think I will go down to the dealership and take a Friday afternoon test drive. That will make me feel better.
I can only imagine how hard it was for you guys that had to wait for 8 months or so to get your new Stang!

I checked late last night and I got changed from "scheduled for production" to "locked in for production" week of 8/15. Didn't check to see if it changed today, though. Guess we're getting close!!!!

When the Fembot switches to the future tense, the "as of" day is the day your car will be built. Congrats. Better clean out the garage!

This is normal - your car will start down the line on 8/16.

When they give a date it is usually the week of rather than the exact day.

TennTang,
I have received the exact same sequence. I went from... as of 7/14 your vehicle will be built the week of 8/15..... to as of 8/16 (a future date) your vehicle is locked in to be built on the week of 8/15. Then this morning it was ... as of 8/16 (still a future date) your vehicle is scheduled to be built the week of 8/15. What happened to the locked in stuff!!
What a ride of emotions!! You think you are about to get built, then you seem to roll back to the way it has been for the last three weeks. What a roller coaster ride. This could drive a fellow to drink (drink more!!)

Oh yes, it has been a wild ride.
But, I can tell you for a fact, I have a 06 on order because of this board. It started off as a neat board to read. Then, I started getting the fever by reading all the posts. Then the next thing I know, I have ordred a new car!
I almost let "new car fever" get the best of me today. I stoped by a dealership, and they had one just like I wanted it. It was a V-6 vert and they priced it at $700 over invoice.
Sure hope I can hold out for the 06!

For once a salesman was actually honest!
That's just a TMS nickname for the automated recordings from the "Dealer Only" phone number.
