Well, unfortunately I can confirm that this issue is occurring. My wife & I are were traveling from Atlanta to Charleston, SC yesterday for our anniversary. We were driving through heavy, periodic rain storms and were traveling approx. 70mph on the highway. I attempted to accelerate to pass...

My wife & I own a loaded '13 Sport and love it. She was driving a highly modded 2005 Dodge Magnum RT (which she also enjoyed) and jump in my 2005 Ram SRT QC on the weekends, so obviously we like powerful American vehicles. Prior to ordering the Sport we test drove a 2013 Durango RT. We liked...

djayash, two words: Explorer Sport. I waited (and *****ed) for four months to get ours, but I can honestly say it was worth the wait. My wife & I love our Sport and our kids love the DVDs. MFT has been flawless and I would argue that if you can navigate and iPhone or any Apple product you'll...

Ditto. I was eager to put one on our Sport until I read this thread. Ugh.

This might help... http://media.ford.com/images/10031/2013_ExplorerSport_Specs.pdf Note that 87 is fine, but that higher octane will result in improved performance.

DustySport, a friend of mine installed the K&N CIA for the Taurus SHO bolt for bolt. Super easy install in fact - identical layout.

As a matter of fact, Explorer4thewife, we took delivery today. Crystal told us March 10th, and it arrived today. I'm not complaining. After nearly 16 weeks, I'm glad to finally have it. We put down a significant down payment and financed the rest at 1.64% from BoA. Surprisingly, they beat...

To sum up a few questions from the group - we did test drive a Sport before ordering. I knew about and researched this vehicle for close to a year before they launched in Oct. We had a dealer contact us when the first one hit their lot, but it was a base Sport and the wrong color. When we...

About to start 15 weeks. Latest update informed us that our Sport was built a couple of weeks ago. It's sitting in Chicago in a lot with a couple hundred other Explorers. However, there is an 'unspecified' problem and Ford is attempting to avoid a "recall." We were given no idea as to how...

Congrats to all those who received their Sports in less than four months. Thats the amount of time that will have passed by the time we take delivery of ours. I kid you not. Again, regardless of dealer allotment, Ford has left a customer waiting for 14 weeks now. Communication has been so...

We just heard the same BS excuse. We are 13 weeks in and no end in sight. I'm beyond ticked and ready to burn the furniture.

Can anyone explain to me why custom orders take a back seat to random Sport builds to accomodate "dealer allocation"? I'm beyond frustrated at this process. There are random Sports listed on eBay right now as my wife & I sit here, 13 weeks later, waiting. It's pretty clear Ford has forgotten...

13 weeks since we ordered our Sport. You read that right.

Everyone, for what its worth...Crystal is awesome.

Crystal, I'm new to this site. How do I go about messaging you?

Pete, thanks for the link. We too are a priority 10, but made the mistake of ordering ours through a fairly small local dealership in the suburbs of Atlanta. The regional rep told my wife that Ford intends to keep the Sport production "extremely limited". She made the same statement regarding...

I stated in my original post that we were at 7 weeks if you considered the holiday shut down. The point is our Sport still has not been issued a VIN after nearly two months and everyone we ask has nothing to say.

What the hell? New to the forum and not in a good mood. My wife & I ordered our loaded Sport on 11-24-12. It's been nine weeks. Nine WEEKS! I already know about the two week holiday shut down, but that still puts us at seven weeks with NO vin. Dealership can't tell us anything so we spoke...
