Same.

After sitting in chip purgatory since 3/30, finally got my email this morning that I am built with ETA of 6/26-7/2.

Mine was built a month ago and is listed as Convoy but on dealers computer it shows as rail delay. Losing a lot of faith in Ford these days

I've never had any faith nor brand loyalty to Ford or any other vehicle manufacturer. Those days are over for me.

Based on experience though, I'll never buy a GM product based on my ownership of a Tahoe. Maybe I'm painting with broad strokes there, but the motor and transmission on our 2012 was awful.

If I could find a vehicle that has comparable engine and transmission technology as the Expedition, I'd drop my order with Ford and go another route. I'm beyond disappointed with this whole retail order fiasco. But apparently there are too many dollars chasing too few assets, so you have few vehicles being sold for top dollar.

This is all tangential, but based on the way Ford treated me with respect to my 2014 Explorer, I shouldn't even have bothered with another Ford product. They did not take care of me with regards to the aluminum hood corrosion issue. Basically told me " you're on your own."

Ordered my wife's on 10-17-21, built 4-29-22, still waiting for shipment. ETA is July 20th.

Mine was built on 4-20-22. Being waiting for shipment since then. Says rail delay. They moved the ETA from June 2 to July 1. Not sure why it jumped an entire month.

Just like the supply chain of parts *into* the plant is totally broken, the supply chain *out* of the plant is also broken. They don't have enough rail cars coming into the plant, they don't have enough workers to load cars, the train companies don't have the capacity to move railcars like they should ... and on and on.

I assume they just gave you an arbitrary date. They really have no idea. My dealer has had cars show up completely unannounced three weeks early, and others that inexplicably take six months to ship.

The only real option is to take up meditation. Or Xanex.

Ordered SPP Max 03/14.
Build week 05/30.
Notified today its been released.
Tentative delivery 07/02.

Just got build week moved from 6/6 to 6/20. The silliness begins.
