So I called out my sales guy out the other day on his dealership's shady practices and the lies I've caught them in, not to mention the $500 doc fee they want to charge me. Leveled with him on everything.
It'll be interesting to see if I get my truck now. The order hasn't been canceled and won't be by me. I want the truck. Just wish I knew what I know now six months ago. Would never have darkened their doors. Just wanted to buy local and support the local economy.
Life lesson learned.

It is just the way Ford tracks internally. In the document below, read from the bottom up,

In order processing - Unscheduled clean.
In production - sent to plant.
It is in production until it is complete and released to the shipping company. If it is on hold waiting for a chip or other part it is technically still in production.

Note: this is a pre covid order. Ordered my 2019 on Jan. 15. I picked it up on April 15.

Yes Ford says, in production, everyone that has looked at says, it is still "in production, not "produced", but "in production" The dealer shows in production, not produced,
Ford says, in production, not produced, Ford rep looked it up and it shows, still in production.
no one that has looked ever said, it is produced. I understand what you are saying.
no one nowhere are does or has anyone ever said, or used the word "produced"
Thank you for trying to give me some hope. My dealer has 4 rangers on order that are scheduled for production last week, so when those or ready to be shipped, mine will come after.
At this point Iam looking at October/November, for a delivery date.

More people need to use Google reviews, and yelp, and anything.
I was considering buying an LG french door fridge to replace my lemon Whirlpool, but consulted Yelp first to read the reviews on the sole LG service provider in Honolulu. Not one reviewer gave the business more than a 2 star rating, some wished that they could have left negative stars.

There'll be no LG fridge in my future...guess it'll have to be a GE, though I'm not too keen on the fact that Haier (a Chinese conglomerate) is the parent company of GE appliances...

I've found that most Yelp reviews are somewhat accurate.

I just bought a new French Door fridge back in June of 2020. I also was looking at the LG fridge at Lowes but once I got back home and read all the reviews it was a no go as every one was bad. I went with another GE Profile French door model and have had it just over 2 years now and couldn't be happier with it. It was a lot more than the LG but like they say "you get what you pay for". ?

I had an LG French Door fridge and replaced it with a GE. I won’t buy another. However my LG washer and dryer are great.

My present fridge, a Whirlpool french door model was purchased new from Lowe's almost 6 years ago along with an extended warranty contract, it's a good thing that I took out the policy on it.
It's suffered from enough mechanical failures to the point where the warranty underwriter declared it no longer repairable and wrote the fridge off, it still works, but for how much longer I've no idea.

At the time I bought it and still now, Lowe's really pushes LG products, despite the fact that at that time no one in Honolulu offered service support on it...zero, zilch, nada. There now is a sole service provider in Honolulu, but their Yelp track record is dismal, at best.

I also have been looking at a GE Profile french door model in any finish but stainless steel, it is a pain to keep clean.

Moral of the story, to all potential buyers of a particular appliance brand, be certain to verify that service support is offered in your area, as well as their ratings, it'll potentially save you frustration and grief in the future.

I've a 22 year old Maytag top loader which I purchased new in Jan. '00, like all Maytag products of that era it's been uber reliable, I've invested maybe all of $35 for repair parts in it to date.

Sadly, Whirlpool bought out Maytag in 2006, the quality of Maytag appliances now (especially laundry products) is atrocious, Whirlpool simply slaps on the well know Maytag name onto them, effectively duping the unsuspecting buyer.

I am trying to keep my Maytag alive for as long as possible and am in the process of refurbishing a '07 Speed Queen top loader for use when I must bid the Maytag aloha...

Still no window sticker on the truck. I think this whole thing is a giant hoax. And I'm seriously considering running over to the Nissan lot and just buying something at window sticker because screw Ford
