Manual Transmission Holdup
#1
Hi, I was just informed by my dealer that there is a holdup on manual transmission orders because of some problem, he did not know what it was, just wondering if you had heard anything, thanks as always.

I had an 05 on order but they ran out of allocations, so he put me as number 1 for an 06, he told me he is already out of allocations for this year, wow.

Thanks, being in Michigan, I guess I am a part of that region, I don't know where my dealer gets his information, but he admits he does not follow it that closely.

If you were #1 in his allocations, that means he did not get a Mustang allocted for '06. Ford gives ALL dealers at least one at the beginning of the model year.

Now you are starting to scare me, are you 100% certain that I should have been seralized by now?

If there were no commodity issues and your order was a buildable order then if you were their only order I would assume you should have been scheduled already. The 1st months allocation period has one more week which is Thursday night so if it does not pull then, I would be asking my dealer why.

OK, I just got off the phone with him, he said there was a issue with the manual transmissions, and his auto transmissions orders have been pulled and that the next time they pull for standards, mine will be serialized. I guess that is what you mean by commodity issue. That is why I asked you about manual transmission problems.

Well, I talked to the new car sales manager about this and he said this happens once in a while, he said the transmissions at that pull were being used for the verts, does that make sense?

It does make sense. Commodities are a strange thing. There are so many combinations that have to line up each week for a unit to pull.
