Had a VIN with MIC since April. Any way to switch to a soft top?

UPDATE - My order was "sent to plant" today. Should have my window sticker and invoice available tomorrow ish.

Edit - Window sticker/invoice in the system today. I think this might actually happen.
Nice!
So you never got an email from Ford updating you on your final build week, correct?

That is correct. Just looked into the WBDO ordering system to see the updates. No emails sent to me since I changed it from MIC to soft top.

So this has been a major disappointment since I received a first build date of 6/14. Pushed back 8 times now. Current date is unofficially 9/27.

Is there anyway to switch my order to a soft top? I am highly skeptical Ford will be able to build a viable hard top this year and I have a feeling come November we’re gonna get another “hang in there!” Email with more production issues.
You may just be the king of The Run Arounds.... congrats?
And seeing as you do not have a DP yet, here you go @Science4Lyfe !

Wish I would have known about this 5 months ago, now I'm just holding on tight to MIC and riding the wave. Good luck to you two! Keep us posted

You should be Produced by 9/2 based on what happened with mine.
Delivered mid September?

Of course mine never made it past 6/30 Produced! It was “Go Directly to Dirt Mountain”

Yea my build date is 9/2. I'm hoping mid sept delivery. I am over driving my miata daily. Sold my Ranger back in June when my original build date was.

That's awesome. Glad our gamble worked out!
I celebrated too soon. They pushed my build back all the way to 11/15. I’m really on the fence now about getting this vehicle. Sit on it a few days. I would be a first time Ford customer but I will likely need a vehicle sooner rather than later. Unfortunate, but it has been a major disappointment to have been strung along for months now especially considering I have been sooo close to my build date so many times before getting delayed. It has been super frustrating and I am beginning to not like how they are handling the scheduling. Honestly right now, I am kind of pissed off.

Man that sucks. Im really surprised they pushed your build back so far considering you are a soft top now.

It appears they got the MIC figured out way faster than I expected. We will see if it pans out.
