Hah yeah.. right now the 5.0 Engine is still on back order... so unless they really start churning them out it might be a longer wait. Congrats on finally getting yours Big T Judge, mine was pushed back again, to this Thursday, hoping i get an update/confirmation today or tomorrow that it will be in before Friday. Drag racing starts on 5/22.. gotta get it.

Thanks Mishri! I don't know why they tell people 6-8 weeks,,,, that's a big lie and they know it. Expect a minimum of 3 months if not more. Mine took 4 months, but was so worth the wait to get exactly what I wanted.

they told me 6-8 weeks is standard, but that they've seen vehicles take up to 6 months.. so.. not exactly a lie, but my salesman had me thinking i'd have it in about 2-3 months tops. If i had known how long it would take I probably would have tried harder to find one already built close to what i wanted.

I ordered my 2012 GT Convertible exactly 9 weeks ago (Monday, March 21st) and it came in today!
It's in the shop getting the extras I ordered installed and I should be driving it by the day after tomorrow.

So I ordered my 2012 GT on 1/21/11, didn't get a vin # till 4/8/11, and just went in today to stir things up and they gave me a delivery week of 5/15/11.. is this pretty typical? nearly 4 months later? The guy at the dealership (not my salesman, who was out when i dropped in) is like oh thats no big deal, i lost a sale because it took 6 months to build an explorer.. i was thinking yeah? you want my salesman to lose this sale for 4 month build? they quote about 8-12 weeks on deliver, and this is going to be 17 weeks.. how long did it take for you to get yours?
See, i was hoping i'd get this car in enough time i could get it broken in a bit, make sure no factory issues then get a cai+tune and a couple other mods (maybe 4.10s and o/r mid-pipe) before the track opens.. as it is now the track opens on the 5-22, so i hope i get to pick it up on 5-16 so i can atleast run it around town a bit before that saturday. typically opening day is the best DA i can get for the year (usually around 4000') the rest of the year is usually around 5500-8000' nothing like running a mid-high 13 in a car that should be capable of a high 11... i guess thats the price i pay for living in the mountains.
