acdii Report post Posted March 28, 2013 The longer it takes to get mine built the more time I have to sell mine! :) Always look in the bright side of life! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TerrorTodd Report post Posted March 28, 2013 Yeah that was my thought too...I sold my other car the 2nd week of December and I'm still waiting for my Fusion. It's ok...I've saved on insurance, gas and any maintenance that might have needed to happen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wacevedo Report post Posted March 28, 2013 I sure hope that when you guys finally get your HyTi's, you won't take as much time to post pics as Ford has to build them. :shift: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toz Report post Posted March 28, 2013 Hard to have sympathy...I ordered back in November 2012 and my car finally got built on March 22nd! So you ordered in Feb - that would be equivalent if you had to wait until June - waiting until April 15th or even the end of April for a build date is cake. Enjoy that you probably will not have to wait the 4-5 months many of us have.Yea, but that was before they were even being built. You had lots of company cuz NOBODY had their HyTi's. It's harder to wait with all of the excited people tracking their BUILT cars on the way to the dealers. But I guess that every car that comes off the line gets me that much closer to mine. Looking froward to all the pictures and new owner reviews to help tide me over while I am still waiting. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wickserv1701 Report post Posted March 28, 2013 Hello, I am new to the forum and was curious how to track a built car. Mine was just built yesterday (03/26), and was wondering how people were tracking across the country. I ordered a Titanium in the Boudeaux Reserve, and can't wait to have it delivered!

Welcome to the forum, and congrats on having your vehicle built. Check out the thread on order tracking tools. Many helpful links there including one on tracking rail car position via an 800# once you get the ettx rail car ID from your dealer sales person. http://fordfusionhybridforum.com/topic/6245-tools-for-looking-up-orders/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

acdii Report post Posted March 28, 2013 LOL, IF I dont sell this car before the other one is built and delivered I will have the dealer swap out the wheels. I do like these wheels a lot more than the standard ones. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Riggo Report post Posted March 28, 2013 (edited) Also, maybe you want to take off the plexiglass on the grill if you're trying to sell it ;) just a thought. Prospective buyer: Sooooo, what's with that on the grill? Acdii: Well, the car doesn't heat up well and gets terrible gas mileage. Prospective buyer: Sold!

acdii Report post Posted March 28, 2013 I know, I thought about that too. But its a Prius trick that works on the Fusion for getting better cold weather MPG! Oh? Hmm. I didnt have cutters with me when I washed the car to take them off, or I would have. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

neod192 Report post Posted March 28, 2013 my car was built yesterday..... does anyone know when they think my ETA will be....I would think 2-3 weeks from now. Ford chat, customer service and FB contacts can give you the ETA once it's in the system. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
murphy Report post Posted March 28, 2013 You should also be able to get your ETA from your dealer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

murphy Report post Posted March 29, 2013 They randomly pick cars as they come off the line for quality testing. The mysterious field of statistics says what percentage they need to test to have a valid sample.I don't know if that is what happened but it is a possibility.If your car arrives with extra miles on it, that is probably what happened.
