Support group for those waiting for their Ranger MY22

[Jbrubakerjr]

I downloaded the app and added my VIN, but there is nothing to see - where did the WiFi and "activate" info display?

Sounds like some ppl are getting delivery quicker as of recent... did your $MSRP/delivery increase? That may help move things along!

It shows up under the 'Vehicle' Tab on the bottom. It used to just say "Remove Vehicle" in an outlined red box. Now the WiFi HotSpot Icon is above it.

Yes, my Window sticker does show an increase, but my dealer has assured me that what I signed on my DORA is my price.

Went and downloaded the app to check mine after I saw your post, mines showing the same (activate button and the wifi option). Really hoping this means it's ready to be shipped soon. My understanding is that the rangers are all shipped from the factory in Michigan. Not sure how far you are from there, but I'm in central NJ. Give us an update when you get a delivery estimate, I'll do the same. Very anxiously awaiting it to come at this point, on borrowed time with my current truck haha

If you see the above from @DonB, it does mean that it is 'alive'! So whatever final assembly needs to be done or features added will still need to be completed. My build is pretty straight forward, added the FX2, clearcoat paint and trailer tow. So if it is sent somewhere else for any of those to be added (Trailer Tow), that could also delay shipping, depending on how long it would take the options garage to add any of those items. Being in GA, mine comes by rail, and my dealer did tell me they get here fairly quickly, but the rail yard has a shortage of workers to get them unloaded and then loaded on the truck to get to the dealer destination.

Gotcha. Yeah, not positive how they get it from MI to NJ, but have to assume rail as well. Here's hoping things aren't too held up haha
Dealer had told me 3-4 weeks for it to land at their lot, but didn't say if that was from build date (window sticker showed up 8/6, tracking shows the 'in production' date as 8/11) or from when build was completed. More likely the latter but holding onto that last bit of hope that I won't have to take my current truck on the trip we have planned early September

Our dates (Window Sticker and Blend) are the same, so it will probably depend on what the option installation timelines look like. I for sure would think a truck would get to NJ from Michigan sooner than it would get to GA by at least a day, anyway.

Ya know, I looked over that window sticker probably a dozen times in the past week and it never clicked that 'rail' was the shipping method even though that makes 100% sense... Yeah it's coming by rail haha

Bounced my truck back to 8/25. FU Ford.

Hey Don - Sorry to see you go after such a long wait, but I can understand the frustration. I would maybe see what my options were to cancel my order (especially if I had money down), but maybe procure a different truck prior to cancellation, if there were no penalty. You know, just hedging the bet and making sure you can find something else you will love!

All present day Rangers sold in the United States are assembled @ Ford's Michigan Assembly plant.

My '20 Lariat spent almost a month in transit, however this was during the holiday season in late 2019 and it had to travel 5K miles to get to my dealer.
It sat on the docks @ Long Beach, CA for a week, from 12/30/19-01/06/20 till it was loaded onto a Pasha "RORO" bound for Hawaii.

Geez, that's quite a trek haha. Fortunately, mine only has to go around 600-700 miles to get to my dealer
