Hail at Flat Rock On Friday 4-15?!?
I read on another forum that Flat Rock was hit with a heavy hail storm on Friday 4-15. Anyone in that area confirm this?
I have got to have the most lousy luck of all time. My car was completed on 4-14 and most surely sitting in the lot (as many others were with builds that week) because it does show shipped until 4-15 at 5:00pm. I don't know whether Ford holds cars back after a storm like this to inspect them and repair them or they just let the dealer handle it. Maybe the storm never hit the plant. I just can't believe this right now.
I haven't waited as long as some but long enough (16 weeks). Right now if this is true, there is good chance these cars are damaged. Right now I feel like I've walked through the dessert and someone has just shot the hell out of my canteen of water. So from now until the end of the week (delivery is ETA 4-23) I will continue to foam at the mouth and shout obscenities!

Dude, I feel for you. I've got no info on the storm, but my thoughts are with you.
BTW, my brother lives in Buffalo, NY and has an LS supposed to have been built on the 11th. I guess I better give him a call!

Unbelievable! The guy that posted this on the other forum is an administrator. At this point I'd like to rip him a new one if this false. I guess he's really just a troll. Quite a few people getting pretty nervous on these posts (I'm the leader of nervous). This is all we need. More rumor spreaders!

Only the Mustangs going to shipped to Canada
I think a story like this started last year while we were waiting for our 2011's to be shipped.

You know Dave, in the past little while it seems like there's a black cloud following me, hailing on me, shooting lightning at me, and generally causing mayhem. I usually don't get exited that easily, but lately.....

I did a google search on weather there was a "Gale" warning in that area on the 15th. I would think they get a lot of those being on the water. Nothing about a Hailstorm .

The jokester just PM'd me on the other forum. Seems like this is a yearly running joke to get us wound up folks to spin off out of control. I think for my own sanity I should stay off these forums for the next few days until my car is delivered.
