Congratulations. I just got a build day of June 6th and ETA of June 18th. I'm not holding my breath but if it's here by the July 4th weekend I'll be very happy.

Don't you have an ETA of 6/2?

Don't understand why it seems some start to get worked up before the ETA is near? 9 days til your ETA.

I have a friend who's car was built last week with an ETA of 6/2 as well. We're both pumped for him to take delivery, but not getting worked up yet as still some time to go for the ETA date to arrive.

Pretty sure my latest ETA is 4 June...I figure if I see it by mid month I'll be extremely lucky...not expecting it anywhere near the ETA....Probably be toward the end of June....been waiting almost 6 months already..it'll be here when it gets here...
I would LIKE to have it before July 4th weekend....but if not ..oh well.

My car is suppose to be built this week on the 25th, and has an ETA of June 13th. I wonder if your cars will be shipped before mine, or maybe all together? The shipping is always killer on the wait.

In watching these posts (as well as my own Boss waiting experience) is seems to be about 4 weeks from when the car is built to when it is delivered to the dealer.
Don't shoot the messinger here. Just reflecting on others and my experience. So get ready for a wait.

Ya ive been reading posts for a while so i figured it might be a little more. Also i have been seeing some cars that have been stuck at 51 for some quality control or something. I hope that maybe they can just get shipping back on track and start shipping out all these cars already.

Yep four weeks seems about average. Although I have a 6/18 delivery I told my son we should have the car my the July 4th weekend. For a nine year old he's pretty excited about riding to school in the Boss and promptly made a countdown calendar.

AAI has been cranking out a ton of Boss' since May 11th. I am guessing there is a long line at the striping shop (VPC). Is anyone in the area who can grab a pic or two?

If I remember correctly Boss' means ownership, whereas Bosses would mean plural.

As far as the 4 week theory. Today it is 30 days for me. I don't know about you guys, but I am really tired of seeing the same threads over and over on the Boss page. We need our **** bosses to start posting of actual experiences behind the wheel, mods, wheels, kills, track experience etc.......My first new Ford purchase is being seriously pissed on.

Not sure what the hell Ford's problem is with shipping. My new company car (YUCK-Chevy Impala) was built on 5/19 and left the plant on 5/23 with an expected delivery date to the dealer of 5/31......
