The only way to prove that theory would be if 5.0 F150's were being held too.

It would seem a bit dumb to hold V6s if it was just a 5.0 problem but maybe that's just me.

No one, including FCS, has confirmed there is a shipping hold due to engine issues. Until someone can officially cite the shipping hold up, I am going with what OAC_Sparky posted earlier over at All Ford Mustangs, and notch it up to shipping logistics, rather than problems with the actual cars.

We're not talking about affordable little cars here, we're buying expensive cars and should not be treated like we're annoying the dealer for info...We've been waiting for ages for these cars >

Hi Deysha!

I sent you a PM but I will post it here too.

I have been looking forward to speaking with you for some time now. I have been following the forums for a while now and you are awesome! Thanks for helping everyone here.

I was hoping you could tell me anything at all about the order I placed. I've been waiting now for exactly 1 month and still don't have a VIN assigned. The dealer hasn't been able to tell me anything and this is getting frustrating being left in the dark.

My order was placed with 'Brien Ford' of Everett, WA. I received a crappy scan via e-mail of the Dora that is really hard to read. Here is what I think I can make out:

Ordered 4-12-11
Order Type 1
Priority 13
Begin Order 4444

Am I just being impatient? What is the typical time frame for getting a VIN!?!

No, there is still a stop ship on some of the Mustangs and this has not affected production at all.

Deysha will be able to help you out though. Hopefully you get good news soon.

She also PM'd me this past monday with a build day of 05-18-11. Still waiting on a window sticker; but, Deysha told me it would come up shortly before the build day. Now, this is just my timeline. I've seen others that ordered a month after me and already got theirs. So, who really knows how Ford handles these orders. It definitely is not in the order that they came in. Anyways, Deysha is your best bet. She is great!

Deysha, I messaged you with my info. When you get a chance can you track it for me. Not that is matters much now, thanks.

Between this mess and the fact that ford isn't really addressing those with manual transmission problems, I'm starting to wonder I really want to go through with this. If Ford would just step up and tell us what is really going on it would go a long way with me, but it seems to me that either they don't care enough to do it, or they are too scared to let us know.

I am just frustrated after waiting so long. I asked FORD in Dec when to order if I wanted it by Mid April. They said late Jan. So I ordered 1/3 just to give it some cushion. I wanted to take the car on a trip Im taking on 5/16. My ETA is 5/15....now don't know if I will even see the car before I leave

You'll have so much time on your hands when this ridiculous delivery problem will be resolved that you'll order yourself a 2013 Mustang and you will start the "waiting" game...
