This will affect people waiting for new vehicle orders.

Sad in this day in age where technology should be able to give you precise updated tracking on your vehicle. They should be able to tell you everywhere it is and where it's sitting to transfer. But come to think of it maybe that's what they don't want you to know. How long it's just sitting waiting to be transferred. :crazy:

I would imagine this is related to the same issue over on the blue oval forums where scheduling info is no longer available. The person who had posted it for years said "after 37 years, I no longer have access to the data" - maybe Ford is locking things down - which seems kind of stupid honestly.

I used the heck out of that thing and even sent him $30!

The 100 times a day I hit it probably drove up his server cost - okay, I exaggerate, maybe 50 times a day!

I wonder what their job titles were? Or maybe Ford is cracking down on excessive use? I still have access, but I got in trouble a few years ago for *cough* helping our customers *cough* posting online.

No doubt... They kept shuffling my truck to the back of the line for shipping from Wayne MI to Illlinois. Weeks after the build it was still sitting in the yard, finally I had to contact the shipper direct.
When he saw what was happening he sent a truck and delivered my Ranger the next day.
I was promised expedited shipping from Ford, but they just kept shipping the profit queens
(4WD CrewCab Lariats) ahead of my 2WD SuperCab STX.

That'll change when Amazon starts delivering cars to your door.
I'll be Bezos is already brainstorming ways to profit from it.

You're probably right but hopefully not! While he was a genius for seeing the demand for a company like Amazon he and a lot of others (Walmart, Home Depot & Lowe's to name a few) have put to many good Mom & Pop stores out of business. I try my best to not buy from Amazon and more times than not find the product they're selling for the same price and sometimes cheaper directly from the manufacturer because they don't have to pay any fees. To many people got hooked on the fast shipping (I'm guilty at times too) from Amazon which can be critical in some instances if/when you really need something ASAP.

I'm feeling pretty fortunate that I ordered my 2021 March 10th and took delivery May 5th, including waiting for the factory spray in bedliner. I drive more cautiously with it now, as if I totaled it today (which does't take much these days). I might not get a decontented 2023 built, and I'm getting a sinking feeling that the 2024 won't be available with a 6' box

I can see getting a chinese knockoff Frod Ragner delivered, it doesn't start at all and when I complain Amazon tells me they'll send me another one and there is no need to return the one I already have. :D
