Well it arrived at some point over the weekend. I was driving by the dealership and noticed a new ST in the lot, turns out it was the one I had ordered (VIN matched) back in Nov. So almost 7 months to the day. Was nice to see what we had ordered in person, maybe a tiny bit of closure. ;)...

Received an update yesterday (6/4) that my order has shipped, said to arrive at the dealer sometime between June 14-20. So if that holds, it would be roughly 7 months from order to delivery. I have moved on from this order and purchased an in-stock Aviator quite a few weeks back, so just...

I cancelled my order a few weeks back (bought an in-stock Aviator instead). My dealership never cashed the check we gave them so they just tore it up. No push back from the sales person at all, just wanted to know if I found something else or something else prevented us from purchasing. I...

On Sat. (4/23/22) I took matters into my own hands because I was done with the unknown and patience simply ran out. Found a '21 Aviator that fit the needs that the ST order was going to fill and bought it. So, if anyone in the Twin Cities area is looking for a loaded Stone Blue ST I can...

My order back in Nov. took about a week to get the VIN after the order confirm email. Good luck on the order, I wish you a speedy build/delivery!

Star White is $795 more, Stone Blue (replaced Infinite Blue in '22) and Rapid Red are $495.

So random... What was the difference between your build and hers? Same Dealer? What about Priority codes for each order?

I agree it seems almost random as to what gets delivered and when. I'm going on 4 months as of today... :rolleyes: Do you have any information from Ford or your dealer at all? VIN? Window Sticker? Order number? Order confirmation email?

It can be done, just much cheaper to get them from the factory. I was quoted between $2-$2500k to get them added by the dealer, that was on a ST with the moonroof.

It is a larger dealer so there is that too, but yes I agree with you there. The other used ones that I have seen go thru that dealer as we have been shopping (before putting in a custom order) were at the same price as a new one despite having 10-20k miles.

For the STs I have seen in stock at dealers they are selling at MSRP (no discounts like X-plan allowed) or for a few thousand above. Here's a recent example: https://www.metropolitanford.com/new-Eden+Prairie-2022-Ford-Explorer-ST-1FM5K8GC9NGA17937 There are some added accessories, but the...

Yup, same here. Is that bad news, or good news? :rolleyes:

Amazingly fast from order to delivery, congrats! What options did you not get on yours? Also what was the priority number on your order? Very curious how yours moved thru so fast...

I should have taken a picture when I looked at one last weekend at a dealership. But didn't because I had high hopes I was going to be coming home with it so there would be time for that later. Anyway, that's sort of a long story, and I know you asked for pics but here's my description if it...

Sounds like I'm in the same boat as a number of others. Everything else is the same except the delivery date moved back to May 10th, so about 3 months later.
