Scheduled for week of 5/17!
 
I just placed my order last Wednesday, and I am already scheduled for the week of 5/17! This seems awfully fast to me. I wonder if it has something to do with the options I picked? Of course, there's always the possibility that my production date will get bumped. But I'm trying to stay positive. For now, I'm riding high! :beer:

Wow, that is lucky. I ordered mine in mid-April and don't yet have a build date, just a VIN#. Barring a minor disaster like Ford angering the volcano gods again I don't think build dates usually get bumped. If they do, probably just a day. Now if you're really lucky you'll have yours by the end of the month/beginning of June. Just in time for the good parts of summer. ;)

I'm betting it's because the newly ordered cars don't have to sit in a lot for two weeks just to be released from plant.

interesting . . . this means delivery by mid-June might be feasible . . . any guesses how long it takes after production to delivery?

(during normal circumstances when they aren't sitting in the lot for weeks, of course!)

Seriously? I ordered a week before you and I've gotten nothing yet.

That deal you got doesn't seem so good now, does it, Jokerstars? :p

Call me paranoid (you wouldn't be the first) but I think dealers are collecting orders and submitting them in batches because there's some kind of extra incentive/kickback for greater quantities ordered at one time.

Lucky, I ordered back in March, still nothing.

Congrats! That's very close to what I'm getting. I'm just waiting for it to show up! :shame:

Ford HQ said they received my order on 4/12. I don't think my dealer waited. That was the very day I ordered from him.

The big difference between our orders is that yours is V6 manual while mine is V8 manual. Has anyone received a v6 manual yet?

As for dealer, my dealer is pretty high volume- among the highest in the south east. Maybe that makes a difference. They put my order in as I sat there. It was Wednesday, which is the day they always transmit their orders to Ford (according to them). My VIN appears on a order status printout from 4/29- the very next day.
