Production started today on my ride. First page timeline updated.

From the tracking webpage. I knew because my dealer emailed me about the progress. She is definitely on top of things.

In Production
Your order is being manufactured at one of our factories. This can take a few days. When you have a moment, tryout the link to your Window Sticker that is now available lower on the page.



And my Shockworks sliders went to welding stage. Should ship this month from Houston.

I hate that for you because this is an exciting part of the process - watching your Ranger’s progress. Put a little pressure on your salesman to get that VIN for you.

This is my third order throughout my vehicle life so I've been here before. BUT, for some reason this one seems harder! Maybe because it the latest, or I'm getting older and imaptient, or the fact it's my first truck. I dunno. Just want it to be here.

I've been in touch with the sales guy and of this past Wednesday he said there is no VIN (yet). Maybe he's not checking like he says he is but for now I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. He's been good so far throughout the process so we'll see. But you can bet I'll keep on him! :)

I had never special ordered a vehicle before, so it was super exciting for me. At least you know what to expect. Hopefully you will get your VIN (&Ranger) SOON! :like:

DAMM, Delivery date to dealer now 3 weeks later. My contact is off today so I will have to see if she knows why the longer wait?

Good and bad news.......

Tracking site show May -17 delivery to dealer.
Dealer sends me factory proof Ranger made yesterday. So first thing is order delivery dates can be very conservative.

took a 18 hr road trip in Honda two time zones away. Short story is Honda had to be traded in for new Ranger in Texas right now to be able to drive home.

Bad news- new Lariat FX4 is black (not primary choice)

Good news - Excellent trade in on car for truck. Interest rate low at 2%. And I found only Lariat Scab in town. I searched 15 dealers from Ok to Tx. Only a total of two available.
