jedimike: I just updated my post from 4/07, 9:48am. It's worse than sid&geno (12/30), olaverty (1/14) & jeeden (1/31). I'm crazy for sticking with the dealer. I have no idea when they actually submitted the order. I've learned the true meaning of patience!

Ordered around 1/7, took delivery last Saturday. All I can say is WOW.
 






OMG at above two (edit: make that three) posts! Totally unacceptable.

First Post by the way, hello everybody! Thanks to your stories here i opted to hunt down a very similar Ex to what I was going to order... and here i am waiting anyways, but hopefully not as long!!
 






For those of you awaiting your delivery, you're going to be pretty damn happy. Just took delivery of a 2011 Sterling Grey on Stone Limited over the weekend loaded w/all options except sunroof (couldn't get past the fact the front shade had to be open if rear shade was open, so passed on this feature). Anyway, it's an incredibly awesome vehicle. Had an '03 Expedition Eddie Bauer that needed replacing and saw the Explorer and was sold. Great ride, great handling, quiet, nice appointments.

Robostreak, how long did it take for you to get your car from the time you ordered it?
 






So someone is going to throw all of this into a matrix with conditional formatting and identify order/sync/deliver/option package trends right? :D

Good idea. Go for it. :) Looks like railroad problem. Delivery seems to be quicker when going west.

Hi folks, new member here.

Similar to Gmon above, I put a deposit on a "dealer ordered" LTD in Stering Gray and Charcoal interior. The window sticker was available last week, and the build date/week is listed as 4/4 (this week). I sent a PM to Seni to ask for any more details, but haven't heard back yet.
