Default Update: Was: Plant Shutdown - Panic Attack!!

Latest Update (and another tidbit):

Kzinti says "Wldstng05 - Shutdown, they clear the lines out to work on stuff. So, if it gets built this week, it should get out the door and shipped."
Wooo Hooo! [sm=happy046.gif]

So, most if not all with a build this week should get out the door.

On an related note, he also said: "2006 Model year starts getting built near the end of August. The build out for 2005 Model year is through mid August. Hang in there! "
So it looks like they've extended it by several weeks to meet demand.

Wldstng05,

Your blend date is 6/23 and mine is 6/22. So if you see mine get built, yours should be about a day behind mine. That's if they take them in the order that we think they take them.

Yep... Are you posting to BlueOval? I haven't watched screen names too much - just seeking info.
I understand that "Normal" is 7 days from blend which of course means yours should be born tomorrow
and mine Thursday... I want to see "Happy Birthday" and "Shipped" by Friday afternoon.
This ain't a fair race.. you have a 24 hour lead already!

AH, I see ya... you're using your real name.
BTW - you asked for an update but didn't include the VIN or
does he know yours by heart by now?
November... wow! That's freaking ridiculous.

Isn't this stuff exciting...

GOD I am so happy to be done with THAT!

Hang in there Wldstng05..... your car will get built! if you have a VIN then the car is real.. just not physical yet.

Ford should give us a bunch of FREE Mustang Gear for having to go through all this pain and suffering.. LOL

That's a GREAT idea!

I'm checking into a "Force Field" mod now....
<The cabin lights turn red and you hear the car say "Idiot ahead one half mile and closing, sir. Sheilds Up?">
"Sheilds Up! Photon torpedos on ready!"
Bahahahaha!

I may have a 24 hour lead on you but my order date is the oldest on there and with the longest wait. Why do you think I went and found one somewhere else? It wasn't the dealers fault, they did all they could do. It was the area sales rep for Ford fault. The little b**ch was giving priority to other dealers and leaving the little guys behind until they caught up. I am still going to buy this one, no matter what. He knows my VIN already.

Hey - judging by the asking price for USED ones you might want to turn around and sell
it the day you pick it up and make a few grand!

Sucks that Ford LET the rep get away with such crap. She would be fired if I ran Ford - maybe shot at sundown!
Hopefully, we'll both be flying high by Friday...

Already flying high in my Sonic Blue premium one. This is the mineral gray deluxe one. Both are obsolete colors for next year.

I got a VIN# and an estimated delivery date of 6/30 for my GT, I've already been waiting about a month and if I have to wait another I don't know if I'm going to be able to handle it. Do you guys think I'm going to get this car or what?
