Boss production is starting up again next Monday

[PTRocks]

There have rarely been more than 20 Bosses built on a given day. I can't imagine that having a notable effect over a daily production of 600 units.

Assuming they have a fix now you'd really think they should be able to get rid of those cars in a matter of a week or 2 or am I missing something? It's only the tiny bit on the front fascia...

Shipping is not as simple as going to UPS and dropping off a package.
Train availability and car haulers are in high demand at present.

Any news on getting them repaired and out the door??

I know. I'm not expecting miracle shipping times but I was however hoping for them to fix it fast so they can be shipped out.

I spoke directly with Ford today(18009623746), the number was changed but automatically forwarded me to the correct number, they were very helpful on the phone, asked me for the first two and the last eight of my VIN.

The rep advised me my vehicle was still showing on hold and no notes to when it would be released. She apologized for the delay. I pressed her about if she had anyway to find out more information and she said no.

I know I want my GHIG just as much as all of you do but it is only April 2012 and according to a friend of mine that has seen the GHIG Boss at the car show he said it is definitely worth the wait.

Hope this helps everyone know a little more.

Cheers!

I hope there will be some more specific info soon...

Before the stripe delay my LS was scheduled to be built the week of May 14th. As of today, my car is now scheduled to be built the week of April 30th! Hot damn! I hope there are more delays!

Wow that's a long delay! Since mine was already built when the issue came up I'm hoping for it to go faster than that....

Any more news on this situation? Anyone know if Ford has fixed and shipped any of them??

GHIG is absolutely worth the way. I took #141 home yesterday and it is such an amazing and spectacular color. I can't imagine a better looking color ;D

Not too sure. I have a PM into the customer service rep on another forum so I will see soon if she can get me that info.

That does look good. Congrats. I think the stripes really help the GHIG. I saw a 13 GT in GHIG and it nearly churned my stomach.

So did things indeed get started back up today? Anyone know?

JMBoss302 could look that up too.

Ok so apparently my car was built on March 21. No idea if that's 'early' or not?

Yours should be around #300

PTRocks, were bosses made every day or did they sometimes skip a day or two? Also, what would your guess for builds on 3/10 be for s/n's? Just curious.

To the best of my knowledge,

Regular Bosses were built every day from Feb. 27th until March 23rd. A total of 8 Bosses were built the following week, then nothing until this week.
LSes were built every day between March 19th and March 31st.

Typical production has been 10-15 cars per day thus far.

So... have they started fixing stripes and shipping out cars?
