That sounds like they want you to cancel so they can get more out of it from someone else. 

Now THAT would be outrageously unethical, and certainly reportable to Ford!

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Like I said I am no expert but I have got info for others in the past. Order numbers I've dealt with are 4 digits such as 4764. Also I believe I need the dealers name as well and location. You can pm me that info and I would forward to one of my pals in ford.

Unfortunately,  that was my first thought too.  I hope we are wrong.

So magically after many questions and calling around and test driving another car they magically get a build date and a vin overnight.. Coincidence.. I don't know!! they are supposed to start building it the week of dec. 2.. Deposit was put down on the thing on Sept 11th! Us Canadians get pushed to the back of the line eh!? haha! jk!

shotime..... If it is, it will be from parts made in Japan, China, U.S.,... and wherever else they contract it out...

I read this thread tonight and really felt your anxiety.  You'd think Ford would have a system that worked like a shipment tracking number that the consumer could check any time to monitor progress.

Anyway, congratulations.  You'll love it!  :WOOT:

I am sorry for your troubles, but I am glad I found this thread.  I too placed a factory order, and was told 6-8 weeks.  So I will be tracking this very closely. 

When I placed my order I also had to put a $500 deposit.  If you put down any sort of money, I would feel better about demanding more/ better answers.

I just contacted 2 more people this morning shotime, like said before Ford has moved a lot of these people around that use to work with. Hopefully someone can give me some info.

Let me say again that Showgun waited a really long time to get his car (in Canada)...I will send him an e-mail, I'm sure he'll hop on and will be glad to give you some insight as to his wait, I know it required a lot of patience on his part.
