Wonder what the average wait time is from delivery by Ford to SAI and customer pick-up or notification ready to ship?

As I was told, that is highly variable depending on how much stuff you have done.  They told me 3-4 months, and maybe 5.

The most important thing is to NOT set/create an ETA in your mind based on what you think the finish date might be. I can almost guarantee that you'll be incorrect and drive yourself crazy. Just be happy that it's in process and know that the phone will ring eventually. Otherwise you'll kill a lot of extra adult beverages (not that that's a bad thing) as you wait and wonder...

GG

To be fair, SAI does not have empty lifts waiting around on a delivery from Ford. When it comes to SAI build/delivery times the clock should start when your car hits the lift.

And as mentioned that time frame all depends on which and how many options were chosen by the owner, parts supply, holiday's, etc.

The SAI sales department will be glad to assist with any build timeframes, just give them a call. 702-942-7325
