Thanks, Joe T
Hey Joe T,

The ETA is to the dealer. Also, you might want to give them a call this afternoon or tomorrow.

THANKS.
Also If your talking about the fascias, the rear one only came in. The front fascia is still on backorder and when it comes in, I will bring it in to be installed.

Any way here it is.





Wow!! Congrats!!!! She is a beauty!!! (The car and your little girl!)

Put the thing on a truck and deliver it already. It is taking longer for it to get from Atlanta to Bremen than it did to get from Flat Rock to Atlanta. Sorry I just needed to vent.

Did your status say awaiting shipment when it got to your depot?

Joelstang, Right now I don't know what the status says. I haven't asked Deshya or call customer service since it is virtualy here all I know is that it is sitting at the rail depot with a status of hot and they say it will be here tomorrow. I hope so. I want to pick it up this week, but it needs the stripes installed first. so here's hoping. This is what it should look like when it is ready.

I waited until my car had been produced to request an ETA from FCS because I wanted to be sure it had a good chance at being accurate. Deysha was able to confirm for me that the car was built on 6-3 and moved to the train loading area on 6-4. I then requested an ETA and got one of 6-25. Twenty-one days is a long wait for transport, but I deal with it. Saturday the 25th comes and goes. I show up to the dealership on Sunday and guess what? Yea...it just left Michigan a couple days ago and the new ETA is now 7-12. Are you f***ing kidding me? 21 days was a reasonable wait, now your telling me it will take another 17? That's a grand total of 38 days just to move a car. You could probably disassemble and transport both halves of a house on 2 different trucks the same distance and have it put back together in much less time. I know their are those of you on the forums that have waited much longer than I for your cars, some 6+ months. My complaint is with Ford's terrible ETA system. I actually thought that just maybe I could be the first one to my knowledge to actually have their delivery estimate mean something. I was wrong. Ford's ETA system is way behind the times. Most companies update their ETA's regularly and provide tracking information. If Ford invested in a better system just think of how much happier and less shocked/angry their customers would be. Not to mention the wasted man hours involved in dealerships & Ford Customer Service taking regular calls from potential customers for info about their orders. [No offense Deysha, you are a brilliantly shining star in all this madness & the hardest worker at Ford]. Anyways, sorry for the rant. I'm sure many of you here can relate to this.
Hey 2012-BLACK-GT/CS,

Thank you for your kind words, I understand your frustration. I still think it’ll get there before the 12th. I’ll keep an eye on it for you.

Hang in there. It took almost 10 weeks for my VIN to arrive & I'm past the 16 week mark without receiving a car. This car was suppose to be a source of entertainment, a fun gift to myself, not the aggravation it's become. If you want your Mustang badly enough, you'll make it.

It is here. I am at the dealers signing the paperwork as we speak. The stripes will be installed tomorrow and I will picket up Thursday. Here are some pics better ones when I officially pick it up.

After waiting ALL DAY Saturday (which was sunny & mild, BTW) and getting no calls, I called the dealer at 7:45 pm Saturday evening just to check in. The salesman said he was told that if it didn’t show up Saturday (which it hadn’t) then it would be there when they came in on Monday morning (which it was).

So the latest is that they’re prepping it this morning, to be ready for delivery by early afternoon today. Pending my wife’s availability (you young guys who haven’t had to manage an estate after a death won’t understand, but we want her name on the title with automatic “right of survivorship” – makes it much easier), I hope to take off work an hour early and go up there to get it TODAY.

One variable is the chance of thunderstorms – it was NICE all weekend long, but we had loud storms overnight last night and they are forecast for this afternoon as well. I plan to risk it if they’re just “scattered” or “isolated” showers, but I do NOT want to be picking it up in a downpour.
I know, it's supposed to rain all through the week and weekend here too. But still......

CONGRATS!!!!!

If you have a window sticker then you should also have the projected build date since the build date is encoded on the window sticker.
