Don't forget "Please contact your dealer for any additional tracking information from now on"

You're right. Sorry. I'm still in Ford CSR programming, er, training.

They used to be SO nice until someone took away all their information. Now they're just a phone bank for the dealers. . .

I think it's funny that most people saying "What's the big deal?" are also the same ones that either haven't been waiting for months since pre-ordering or haven't ordered, period.

I haven't ordered mine, but I can understand why some people, after having waited for months, can be a little anxious and impatient.

I've never gotten the "Thank you for buying a Ford" from CS, but I've lost count of the "That beautiful car will be sitting in your driveway in no time".

*SOSA*, Nothing new...

I might pull the trigger tomorrow on another GT500 from Ontario... for 2k less than my price.
It is supposed to be at the dealer next week.

yes i did. but i knew not to preorder. waiting to they have production going smoothly has its advantages.

my advantages for waiting: avaliblity of yellow blaze and to finish paying off my 06 F150 with 50kmiles($5K more to go!!!)

I'm waiting for my 2011 GT base w/3.73 gear ordered 4/17 build week of 5/10 I have'nt heard anything from my dealer but I'm optimistic and in good spirits

I have noticed that one of the largest Socal dealers and top sellers Galpin Ford has plenty of 2011 Mustangs both V6 and 5.0 I'm not sure when they ordered their cars but they began comming in atleast two weeks ago.If you look at the window stickers on most of the inventory they have recent build dates.So even if they were ordered in Jan and were just now built,it only took about 1 month from build to delivery.I guess it makes sense that Ford takes care of the Dealers that sell the most cars.

Oh well I'll continue to wait because this new 5.0 compared to my previous Fox cars is like a dream come true
