I had been scheduled for a build week of Feb 28 since Feb 3rd up until Wednesday.

On Wednesday the evil computer lady said as of March 2 I was locked in for a build week of February 28th.

Now today the "locked in" verbage was dropped now I'm back to as of March 2 scheduled to be built the week of Feb 28.

Is this a step backwards? Am I no longer assured I am locked in for next week? :angry:

From experience, even though the "locked in" verbiage was dropped. Your vehicle is still going to be built week of Feb. 28th. The very same happened to the vehicle that I ordered (not the one I purchased). It was Scheduled for week of Jan. 31st, then Locked In for same week, then just Scheduled for week of Jan. 31st again. The car was built 2/3 and the dealer in So. FL received the car on 2/14.

Won't be long now before you're driving around in a sharp new car.

Thanks Steve. I was just getting a little worried probably for nothing.

I also called the Ford Customer Service number (the one we are supposed to use) and the nice lady on the other end also confirmed I'm still on for next week.

She estimated the dealer ETA to be March 7th but I also know these ETA's aren't worth a grain of salt as they say.

From my experience, it's a good thing. (See sig) It probably means you've been bucked. What date did it have it locked in for before the status changed back to scheduled?

It seems very similar to your sig Stangnut

First it was as of 3/2 locked in for build week of 2/28 when I called Wednesday
Now it is as of 3/2 scheduled for build week of 2/28 when I called this morning.

I might call back later today to see if it changed to Bucked like it did yours.

I think it all depends on how nice you talk to the evil computer lady. I think she can tell what you're saying and only will advance you if sweet talk her.

She told me the same thing this morning. Thought I had just misunderstood her. :P

I'm prettu sure 3/2 is the exact date your car will start being built. So the official build date should turn out to be 3/3. My build week was originally 2/28 and then it was bumped up to 2/21. Then she told me "As of Feb. 25th..." Looks to me like they had a little extra room left at the end of this week and slid mine in. The car hasn't been built yet, so I assume the build is starting today and I should hear "your unit has been produced" by Tuesday. We'll see next week.

When they serialized mine on Thursday the evil computer lady was updated on Friday.

StangNut

All the ones I've seen get pulled are updated early on Friday. Someone even said his changed just after midnight.
I'm sorry to say it sounds like yours won't get puled today.

I hope its on 3/2. I already set up a time to meet a buddy of mine after work at a local drinking establishment to toast the birth.

StangNut

I'll let you know next week when mine was built. Or at least when she changes the message.
