Support group for those waiting for their Ranger MY22

[lazynorse]

I'm from Vancouver and went with Awesome Ford because they were the only dealer that does the Costco pricing in the PNW. They seem like good folks from my dealings so far.
What package did you order?

Cactus Gray Crewcab XLT FX4, 301a with tow. Ordered 3/21, been patiently waiting. I have no idea if shipping is faster/on schedule these days. Hope so!

This will be our upgrade from our 12 yr old Subaru Outback for dirt adventures. Subaru only goes so far on the ‘true’ 4x4 roads (but it went a lot of places, some places it shouldn’t have!).

Exactly the same package I ordered except color. I ordered Velocity blue. Order sent in 2/27

The waiting is the hardest part.

Got an email stating my truck was at the dealership!

This is starting to become a nuisance with Granger @Zach@granger... The truck is at the dealership and I asked about the bed liner they were going to put in. Making note, this was the second time I asked as my last correspondence went unanswered. They then tell me that the can no longer do the install as they do not have the staff and IMMEDIATELY asked if I wanted to cancel my order and get my deposit refunded (in addition to me having to provide screenshots of our previous e-mails to show that I requested it in the first place, but that's another foul I won't get into). No, I have been waiting on this truck for half a year and ordered because I wanted it. I am not interested in allowing you to get out of your Ford requirement to sell only to me and then sell for much more to someone else.

Now, dealing with finance, I am getting the run around and it's infuriating... I asked about the incentives and was told there were none. I then send a screenshot of the new order incentive and was told it expired in May... I ordered March, to which I replied and sent a link to a good thread on this forum. She then says she sees one for my my address in AZ, but not in CO and they if I registered in CO, they'd have to file and exception through Ford. However, this will be titled in AR and explained all of this in our [saved] e-mails, when I was going through the process.

After much of the above paragraph taking place yesterday, via e-mail, I also had called and left a message for the finance lady to call me back. I also told her in the following e-mail that I called and asked her to call me back. Nothing... So today, I send an e-mail asking what I need to do next as I wanted to get this sorted and pick up the truck and plan my 7-hour drive. Nothing. I'd call, but I already know how that will go.

At this point, I'm looking to just pay cash and tell them to release the truck. Jokes also on them, I was looking to place another vehicle order while I was there. Was...

I've got a Feb 2022 order with Granger that I will be picking up later this month.

Did you get the $1000 order incentive worked out?

Can you post or message me the "good thread" link?

Thanks.

Tim Bartz talks in one of his videos about how the dealership can choose to give current incentives at purchase, or can do those in place when you ordered. They can't mix and match - it has to be one or the other.

We've got bigger problems than truck delivery if the rail workers strike. Google will return the myriad of reasons, but they're at loggerheads due to sick leave policies. The pay is largely settled, from what I've read. The railroads are strict and don't accommodate last minute leave, which is what most illness requires. My employer accommodates, most do, so railroads need to buck up. Record profits, they've earned. They can hire a sub here and there.

Yes, but it will only affect MY22.
All MY23 orders will be built and shipped in less than 4 months.
