Job 1 Delay
I'm not sure if this is a repost......![Nonono](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/nonono.gif)
My sales guy just called and he said Job 1 was delayed by 1 week to the 22nd. Also, I'm not in the first four weeks production yet, but neither is any of the other customers from this Dealership, which is one of the largest in North Texas. Anybody else heard anything?

And what's with the first rides? I got to thinking about that...has that ever been done before? Seems a little retarded now that I think about it.

Well, I'm not sure, but I got the impression that ALL of the Dealers allocations weren't scheduled yet. But I have seen some guys get VINs already, so it can't be a Ford thing unless they put a hold on other orders. ![Thumbsdown](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsdown.gif)

do you really want your car to be one of the first ones off the line?
or maybe it might be better for them to get some practice on somebody else's car before they build yours?
think about it . . . patience, patience . . .

Hey guys, I've mentioned this before but I'll post it again, since it came up. The only retail orders that are being scheduled right now, are GT500 retails. The retail orders of V6 and GT models are NOT being scheduled right now. Reason being, Ford is going through what is called "system fill". This is where they fill up the order line with stock units for the lot for the 1st few weeks of the start of Job#1. They want to make sure that nothing goes wrong with the stock units before building retail orders. I know this as I recieved an email from my rep, who got an email from the Ford scheduler on the east coast, that said "no retail orders (A/X/Z, order type 1, 3) are not being used for system fill. They will begin scheduling retail cars for April build.
Oh, and Job 1 has NOT changed. Its still 3/15 from what I know. If it changed, it would be on our sheets at work. If anyone has any questions, let me know. I;m always glad to help!!

So for us with GT orders our cars should be built in April and we should have them in May if all goes as planned?
I have a priority of 11 on my DORA if this means anything.

OK thanks for the info Jeff! That explains a lot, but are you sure about Job 1 not being delayed? Actually I hope you're right! ![Wink](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)

Hey everyone, just got in and its true, Job#1 has been pushed back a week, to 3/22!! Nothing unsual about it, as its happened before. Ford may want the extra week to get the EPA testing done for the car, or something else (need time to get more motors built at the engine plant?). I'm just grasping at straws, lol. The EPA thing is a possibility as the 5.0's fuel economy has not been released yet. Just a thought!

Ha, told you so! lol ![Heh](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/heh.gif)
I think it might be a parts shortage. A lot of the parts for the suspension are from the GT500, and they might be used to having to supply in amounts required for the GTs?![Doh](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/doh.gif)

Is there any way you can post a sample DORA with explanations of what all the fields mean? My salesman faxed me a copy of what is supposedly the DORA, but it's a bit difficult to follow. I see a "10" under a column headed by "PR" and "AL", but I'm not sure that's my priority code.
Thanks!
Rick
