STGUY

Because my 2 month old kept me up all night and I am dumb! Sorry...… 1FM5K8GCXLGA35280

Think the vehicle might be going offsite for repair and I’m not being told that. Thanks again!

Getting the run around by the dealer. Vehicle has been in production for 3 weeks now. They say its built. But the status doesn't say it is produced from what I can tell. Thanks for the help! Dealer # F27042 Order # 6967

I agree. I was saying how in the hell is any explorer replacing the sport LOW PRODUCTION. Thanks did not see that in the order guide.

Anybody know how many Ford Explorer ST's will be produced. I had two dealers in my area tell me all ST's vehicles are low production including this explorer. Also one of the online reviewers Alex Autos said it will be a low production vehicle. (he was at press drive event) So I am assuming he heard that from the Ford Reps. Some real hard data planned production numbers would be nice.

Yeah I did the brand new vehicle (platform) with the Mustang 15 GTPP. Number two delivered in Virginia. However not a retooled plant. I saw a time lapse video on youtube of the demolition and rebuliding of the assembly lines/tooling. UNREAL. I thought Ford was overselling what they did at CAP. NOPE NOPE NOT AT ALL. I was blown away, that place was GUTTED. Def a cool watch in my opinion.

Thanks for your help akirby. I have ordered three other Fords. My 15 GTPP 13 explorer sport and 11 GTCS. Never seen this in the secondary. Made it sound like the vehicle was sitting in storage. Secondary was usally always (sent to plant) threw the early production process. Then secondary flips to body shop etc until primary changes to produced. The secondary went from Sent to Plant one day to orgin receieved auto warehousing/while the primary says in production. Just never saw that before. Was afraid something was wrong with build.

Anybody know what the status means....... Primary In Production. Secondary Orgin Received (auto warehousing) Vehicle Location Ramp 06 Chicago Assembly My vehicle sat in production primary secondary sent to plant for 2 weeks. Now the customer tracker gave me an in production date as friday. Dealer system on monday shows the new secondary orgin. Dealer tells me that means vehicle is produced awaiting shipment. Shouldn't the primary change to produced in the dealer system??

Well got an email this morning that my 2020 ST with an estimate production date of July 15 went IN Production this morning. Window sticker link is there but no window sticker as of yet. So I got bumped up by 3 weeks. Maybe others will experience this too!

However hoping your right! I don’t know just saw a pattern with ST’s at least in my area. Production date on that unit is 5/31

I’m hoping so. Only problem is these are dealer stock allocated units. My neighbor on my block is the inventory manager at my local ford dealer. He ordered that vehicle under dealer stock. They are being told resubmit the order.

This isn’t the one I ordered thank goodness but dealer stock. Would appear ST’s are having an issue.

A bunch of these window stickers only on ST Models have this vehicle not for sale. When this happened with the launch of S550 that meant vehicle had so many problems they would scrap it. Only a few ST’s in my area have regular retail window stickers that don’t say vehicle not for sale.

Press drive event is early next week. Early production models being used. Early as in May builds. But hopefully next week we will get official reviews from the automotive press.

This sorta has to do with production. Does anybody know if the 2020 Ford Explorer is r134 or 1234yf refrigerant? I just bought a new 1234yf machine for my shop and was just wondering.

Yeah I got it for Dealer Invoice. 57 and some change. Not under though. I was still blown away by this one dealer. I was like dude you serious. I get a GT500. Low production car. Extreme high end market. But an explorer......

Today is the day. Please O please go well. BTW anybody here of the ST's going for sticker price plus. A dealer by me wanted to sell for sticker price plus. I was like you are serious? This is the hottest contested market for a vehicle. And your trying to sticker price plus these?

I ordered an ST. Miles per gallon be damned!

Things must be going ok at Chicago Assembly Plant. Placed order for 2020 Ford Explorer ST on April 25th. I just got my VIN number today from dealer. Never thought it be that fast. Production date week for July 8th right now.

Yeah my problem was the trunk fit. The adjustment was a complete PAIN. I just thought maybe it was because it was an early vehicle. Besides that zero complaints with the S550. Hope to get the same out of the ST minus the panel gap.

Yeah I am a V-8 guy through and through. Thought Ford was making a huge mistake by putting a twin turbo V6 in a pick up truck. Drove one, and........BOY was I wrong! Fords EB engines are pretty awesome.

Not to get off topic but I have a 2011 GTCS Mustang built at FRAP. I have a 2015 Ford Mustang GT PP Built at Flat Rock. Paint on both seemed fine. I ceramic wrapped both vehicles, paint still looks brand new. Now they have never seen rain and are garage kept. But my God the panel gaps between my 11-15 wow difference. Believe it or not the 2011 panel gaps WAYYYY BETTER. Only problem I saw out of FRAP. I fixed the gap problem on the 15 myself with my body shop.

Yeah, I get that its the same 12.3 inch cluster. But it be nice if they had specific ST graphics. ST Logo at start up. Different fonts, colors etc. Be a nice touch for ST Owners.

Explorer production/Chicago plant just got a new body shop. Please go smooth. I have an ST Explorer on order.
