I agree with you but every dealership I have dealt with acts like it's a major hassle and makes you feel as if your being a major PIA. I wish my salespeople would just email me Thursday afternoons with the status but that is way to much to ask for.
Main commit is how many units were originally allocated for the week. Example, if a dealership has 2 allocations for this week, they will have 2 units scheduled on Thursday. All the scheduling sheet is saying, Ford is committing to scheduling what they(ford) committed to originally
Thanks for posting this information and the explanations on how to decipher the data. This information is a life line for those of us with rigs in the order banks. I so look forward for these reports every week and really appreciate it being shared.
Like you I was working on the final purchase and logistics to pick mine up. What a kick in the nuts. Here is the email...
"I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Ford issued a Bronco recall today and your vehicle is affected.
We can't release a vehicle with an open recall...it's illegal...
Looks like mine was just delivered to the dealership today! The irony is I was at conference in Philly and drove home today. Guess I'll have to make the 6 hour drive again when they call.
This is becoming a bad joke. Bronco sat for 2 months waiting to be shipped, now it's been stuck in Wilmington DE since the 5th on a train car. Really...it's going to take 3 months to ship something from Detroit to PA! Stupid!
They are still sending them, I just received mine on Monday. That being said my Bronco was built 4/3 and just shipped 5/28. It was cool to get the pic though.
I don't understand why my rig isn't shipping. Has been built since 4/3 and is still awaiting shipment. When I contact Ford all I get is " It's been released from the plant it's just waiting to be scheduled for delivery." I am beyond frustrated.
