Is this a damned if you do or damned if you don't example. If Ford didn't send you would bitch, they do send and you bitch.

I think it has more to do with the fact that Ford didn’t even bother to parse out the people who already had build dates and updated orders from the recipients of that email.

OK, super cool guy. I'm sure you've not complained once in your 448 posts. Ford must be giving you daily updates the rest of us aren't privy too. I bet you're fun at parties.

Absolutely not. This is a multi-billion dollar global company who have consistently lied, misled, and otherwise moved the goal posts throughout this clusterfuck of a rollout. Add to which, they clearly cannot manage the status of their reservation holders to send emails to those who have not re-upped their orders versus those who have. This would have been a good faith move to show current rez holders that we see you and are looking to get you cleared in 2023. Instead I get rando emails saying act now or I lose my 800 day old reservation?! I thought I had, FORD?! So now I bog down the dealer, who were putting out fires all day on this mess, by calling and asking WTF?

This was poor form on FORD. But then we have seen this movie before.

Probably because the information is all stored on different databases that do not connect and “talk” with each other. Happens a lot in large corporations. I work for the Feds and there’s lots of info that don’t connect over multiple databases.

I would buy a Tesla Cybertruck then. You want a clusterfuck, there it is.

Not doubting that, but a bad look is a bad look...

Yes I received the same email.

I also (finally) received a VIN a few weeks ago with a now 11/28 build week.

I agree with the “chalk it up to mass communication effort” view.
