I checked on my car it is built waiting to be shipped. They are doing a yard audit to check for some small problems. Also there were no defective engines sent to Flatrock. I was told they are running out of room to park the finished cars. The plant is working 10 hour shifts and Saturday. I think by the end of this week there will be a lot of cars shipped!!!!!

Who did you get this info from? As we have seen from all the false stories, the dealerships don't know much of anything. So you have to take the good news with the same grain of salt that you take the bad news.

Ford is doing things right. Make as many as they can store, then ship in large amounts to get the shock effect as far and as long as they can.

All I am saying is that if someone comes and goes "they arent shipping due to XXXX" everyone goes "thats not true!!!!1one" but if someone comes and says "yes, they are shipping now everyone believes him. I want to see my car show up as bad as anyone, but lets wait for confirmation before we start celebrating.

Grantsdale, I think everyone uses logic -- delays are not true till proven because they're more "rare" on a new, much planned for car.

Flip-side, "Ok to ships" ARE logical because heck, the cars are built and ready-to-ship. See what I am getting at? You don't need proof for one as much the other.

But you should need the same amount of proof. This isn't a court of law, you should need evidence one way or the other before saying yes/no to anything.

Quite a few people are now saying their dealership is reporting their car as "In Transit" this seems to verify the "ok to ship" also someone has seen fit to sticky the "ok to ship" post which is proof eneough for me, since Brad's Mustang Source is the source of reliable mustang information.

Just because a rumor is probable doesn't make it credible.

I do agree with that, and the pic of the cars on the back of a hauler further shows that. However, he posted about "no defective parts" and "doing a yard check". Neither of those have any evidence showing they are true or not.

That was what I was commenting on more than the "ok to ship".

Ok, to some extent I agree with you. For sake of argument, what is a credible source, to YOU. I know where I get my information, etc. Yes, an AAI employee, and one that doesn't work the line. Name names, if you know any.
