Not quite the news we all wanted to hear, but it's better than an indefinite hold :victory:They start scheduling them tomorrow and production starts the week of march 11 so your dealer lied to you or he's just covering his ass.

wazzul Report post Posted February 21, 2013 Just an FYI, TT my dealership yesterday and they said production in March as well. I figure Ford is going to do everything in their power to get at least a few cars out before the end of Q1. That way they can always fall back on "we said we;d have them out by the first quarter of 2013..." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

acdii Report post Posted February 21, 2013 Doesnt look like it is actually at the dealer though, the build and price inventory search shows as dealer ordered, which means still in transit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scott_farmer Report post Posted February 21, 2013 I just received this email from one of the dealers I was working with recently. I already bought my SE, but I thought this information might be useful here. Dear Scott, HI, Scott this is David Bagby At Tommie Vaughn Ford. I am writing you today to let you know that the scheduling of Fusion Hybrid Titanium is planned for Feb. 21st and production to begin on March 11th. Initially we’ll be very limited on production but if you want we can order one for you.Once we are in contact with each other, we will be able to address any questions you might have about ordering or locating your desired vehicle. I would also be happy to meet with you at your convenience to discuss these options in person. In the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact me. I can be reached either by replying to this e-mail or by phone at (713) 802-6640. Thank you for your interest. I look forward to speaking with you soon!

wazzul Report post Posted February 21, 2013 Just noticed on BOF Jeff T posted an email from his dealer with specifics in regards to scheduling of Hybrid Titanium's. Ford's going to schedule a limited number (14) stock orders later today. It says that "scheduling of this model has been approved" (I guess that's on OK to buy status), Lastly, "Retail order scheduling of the Hybrid Titanium model is tentatively planned to begin the 28th." Thanks to Jeff T who's always on point with these updates across ALL social media outlets! This update gives me get hope that we're going to start seeing more and more VIN's and possibly start seeing cars arrive at dealerships in the next 4-6 weeks. :hi5: 1 fusionTX reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cwb1183 Report post Posted February 21, 2013 They must have been building HiTi dealer stock for some time now here, is another one in the Kansas City metro area zip 64015.As I search there are tons of SE Hybrids, I would think only a few dealers in large metro areas are going to order HiTi's for stock. So... Maybe they will start with dealer orders soon? http://www.inventory.ford.com/services/inventory/WindowSticker.pdf?vin=3FA6P0RU7DR171853 1 neod192 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is it still going to be scheduled? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
acdii Report post Posted February 22, 2013 Apparently the HyTi is on perpetual back order. You will never find out why, or when with the current method they use. When looking up a VIN for a supposed HyTi that is listed on a dealers page with a build date from last december, looks a little deceiving. If it was built back then, it should have arrived by now.
