has the OK to sell been given??

0211 2 06 GT COU UA 4W 400A 3 03/30 BUCKED 04/10 1ZVBP8CF6********
0218 1 12 GT COU UJ 5Q 401A X 04/12 SCHEDULED 04/17 1ZVBP8C**********

Since retail orders are now being scheduled, does that mean Ford has silently given the ok to sell?(blacked out the VIN since it's not my order)


My order is the stock one, had a build date of yesterday, but still shows bucked. I'm assuming that build dates are also estimates and that the system may not update immediatley.

It may look that way!! I had my fleet manager email my Ford rep, to ask about when I can expect to see any scheduling of my 6 orders. I'll see if she emails me. If she doesn't, she is coming in Tuesday for wholesale.

I would guess the ok has been given. After 2 weeks, I'd think cars would be piling up, and they would either need to start shipping or halt production. A few people seem to be getting their orders scheduled. Looking forward to hearing what Jeff's rep has to say.

Yep, Campbell. How did you like them. Your's must be the Retail order they have, supposed to be built next week right?

Ordered mine in January, but they changed it to "stock" order from retail when it got scheduled first. I'll be mad if you get yours first just cause they changed mine to stock.

The sales rep that sold me mine quit the next month. Been working with the owner, he seems pretty good.

It appears we had the same rep.

I thought they were fine. The person who sold me the car left the dealership about a month afterward so I have been the in the dark about the status of my car. Apparently the sales manager is handling my order. I spoke to him about 2 weeks ago and he didn't have any info to tell me.

I was told by my original rep that they were building stock orders first so he said that to get mine sooner he would switch it from retail to stock. Considering the fact that he left I doubt that happened.

Just sent you a PM, from my update from the dealer, it looks like the have one other GT ordered. Probably yours, put the VIN in a window sticker look up and see if the specs match your order.

Let me know!

ps If it is your order, being built this week with ETA of 4/17

Try again tomorrow, mine didn't show up till a Tuesday or Wednesday.

Did you order the rapid spec 401a, GT coupe. The order date is 2/18, was that about the time you ordered?

Bet it's yours!

Just so you know, this means that your car isn't scheduled to be built in the next few days. The stickers only become available one week ahead of the build date.

Does that mean the "stock" orders too? Wonder if my April 10th date is accurate then, dealer said plus or minus 2 or 3 days
Man would I love to be driving in my new 5.0 next week!

I'm only about 180 miles from the plant, wish I could drive to pick it up!
