OK guys (and gals that are also on here with me!) I just got official word from my Sales Manager. He said that his Ford Rep finally responded via email and said that there are 26,658 trucks on hold right now due to supplier and quality issues. He mentioned contour seats and missing seats. He has no ETA but they are working to get to the trucks they had to pass through the line. I asked about the trucks that are being built after and being delivered and he said that if there is a "missing" part... the truck still goes down the line and gets put on 'hold' until they go back to it with the pieces it is missing. He has no ETA BUT the dealership has on order and exact truck to mine that they are trying to push up to priority one. Apparently the Owner (who has 5 LARGE dealerships here outside of Cleveland) is involved and he sent a "not so nice" email to the rep.
Not what we wanted to hear.... but it confirms information which we all thought. That said, this is what I wanted/needed, an answer. While I am sad its not here & anxious to take delivery... I understand that **** happens and I would rather the truck be correct than have to deal with getting little things fixed by the dealership.
Sorry Guys.

It would be interesting to know if the shortage of parts only applies to your builds during October, or all future builds. and is it isolated to certain color interiors and wheel base/badged models? I order my truck 1 1/2 weeks ago and they already provided me a vin#

Did you order on the 14th (1 1/2 weeks ago ) or the 21st (3 days ago)?
