Updated to add that one of the two has supposedly arrived at the dealership:
2/8 - Requested X plan pricing from a local dealer
2/10 - Received quote and was not happy with pricing. Began contacting other dealers for competitive pricing and received better prices almost immediately.
2/11 - Email saying First Order confirmed by local dealer (without permission/request). Informed local dealer would not be purchasing unless price was lowered. Came down some, but ultimately received a better quote from another dealer a short drive from us.
2/17 - Placed Order with second dealer that offered better X plan price by about $2500 initially, although first dealer later reduced to just under $2k more
2/18 - Email that Second Order confirmed
4/7 - Emails for both orders saying they are busy working to get into production, will keep us updated, etc.
4/28 - Email for Second Order arrives saying scheduled for production the week of 6/20, VIN assigned ending in 2795.
4/28 - A few minutes later, email for First Order arrives saying also scheduled for production the week of 6/20, VIN assigned identical other than last three digits, ending in 2856.
6/22 - Checked tracker and both shown in production. Window stickers available and identical. In addition to the Auto Stop-Start Removal that we selected (-$50), we lost the Hands Free Liftgate (and are saving $55; gee, thanks, Ford).
7/1 - Email that First Order, 2856, is built.
7/1 - Email that Second Order, 2795, did not go into production due to supply chain delays and will keep us updated.
7/2 - Email that First Order, 2856, is shipped. Estimated arrival at dealer given as 8/1 to 8/7
7/21 - Logged in to tracker and Second Order, 2795, is marked built. Window sticker no longer available for some reason.
7/22 - Email that Second Order, 2795, is built. A few hours later a second email arrived saying it is shipped. Estimated arrival at dealer given as 8/5 to 8/11.
7/25 - Window sticker for Second Order, 2795, again available and nothing appears to have changed from a quick review.
8/5 - First Order/2856, showing as having arrived at dealership, within the original estimate given of 8/1-8/7, and in the process of "Final Preparation" by dealership. No contact from dealer at this point and not listed on their website.
Curious now if the Second/2795 will arrive on schedule, which would be within the next two days, or how much longer we'll be waiting, as that is the one we intend to purchase.
