If it makes you feel better, I selected from the shop about a month ago and got 15xx. Scheduled to pick up at the factory next weekend.
I was actually sent a text last week that I could schedule my delivery for this past Monday, but because of work, I had to wait until Thursday. I'm being optimistic that the R1S will be all good... with maybe minor issues that are either liveable or can wait for a scheduled service. I've only owned Ford's all my life, from Mustangs, Cobra's , F150's, etc, so my standards are a little lower than most. Besides, this isn't really a luxury car for me... It is for my wife. She isn't as meticulous about things as me, so I don't lose sleep over scratches, dings, dog slobber... lol We call her current car Vegas, because anything goes...!!!
6161 was 3/23 build so it is probably a March build.
Mine is the same. Vin is 42xx. No complaints from me and on the plus side I have the 12v under the dash snd meridian sound system.
We are now eight months into the S ramp (August last year to now) and in that time taking Q1, 2 and most of 3 for the T (I am ignoring the Q 4 2021 as these were for employees and very first builds) then well over 10k were built so the S ramp is slower. Partially explained by still making a lot of Ts and getting the waitlist down for that vehicle.
Might be worth asking why it sat around so long. On the plus side, you'll likely have the additional outlets and Meridian speakers.
