It may be the color.I wonder what I picked that was wrong? My order date is Aug 17 for a BL+BL in Rapid Red (although I think they may have used up the paint on all those F-150 and Rangers I'm seeing). At this date I hopefully will be scheduled for a Feb build because I will be sunning myself in Florida during Feb and March and I'd like to be home when it arrives.
Kodiak Brown is probably the hold-up. It was for the new F-150, the last time I looked.I'll add mine as well-

Got an email from Ford, and confirmed with my dealer that they got the same update.Hey John, I'm curious, did you get a confirmation email from Ford or is the build week what your dealer told you?
Besides.. it probably being a bit unfair to the rest of the people who ordered early... we're happy you got the golden ticket.Got an email from Ford, and confirmed with my dealer that they got the same update.
I went to the dealer in person and they submitted the order directly through their system. I am getting the email updates, but the order is not currently linked to my ford account (maybe takes some time to update since I kind of did things in reverse order.)Besides.. it probably being a bit unfair to the rest of the people who ordered early... we're happy you got the golden ticket.
How does it work that if you didn't have a reservation?... Does that mean the dealer ordered it and linked it to your ford account?
The reservation wasn't anything other than a way to link you with a local dealer. The only thing that put you into any kind of queue was the dealer placing the order. After that there's a variety of factors that go into scheduling. The most unfair, for customers, is the way they allocate orders to dealers.Besides.. it probably being a bit unfair to the rest of the people who ordered early... we're happy you got the golden ticket.

I did the same thing. I wanted to test drive an escape, it's been a long while since I've driven a Ford.I went to the dealer in person and they submitted the order directly through their system.

I couldn't bring myself to do the slate on the interior... went with black myself... too many dogs / clumsy humans (LOL) in my house to risk the stains that have plagued the tan interior on my current Ford. Also, until just very recently when I saw a video give a good view of it, the build & price made the seat color look much more slate blue than slate gray. Glad to see someone took the risk.I'll add mine as well-

I was told that very thing. Oh mine will be there in December since that's when they start coming in. "Since you am front of the line, yours will be in that first group." Nope.If you search their inventory on Ford.com (ZIP 98004) they only show 1 unit which is probably a mannequin that will show up in December. The rest are probably peoples orders.. maybe some canceled, maybe not.
Bet if you called they would tell you to reserve with them and that “they will start showing up in December” conveniently leaving out the detail that it’s just the mannequin arriving in December. I’m learning the tactics dealers like to use..
I'm in Snohomish, also 1/11! We can be cousinsAdd mine as well.
