I have a Badlands/Sasquatch build that might get here by 2025.

Same issue here with my V8 - sitting at the port
Sorry to say it, but I think you're in for a long wait. I also had a V8 originally scheduled for delivery on July 9. My dealer gave me the VIN and ship's name. The ship arrived June 22. The next thing I heard was delivery was moved up to July 2 - needless to say, I was very excited, although I was following along on this forum and worried about the smoked lights (kind of hoping it would sneak through). On July 5 my dealer called to tell me the car was being held at the port - since it was one of the first V8s in the US he thought it could be a customs issue. Then last week I got the call that said it was being held indefinitely, although they were hoping for delivery at the end of August. My dealer still does not have an answer for me as to why it is being held. Having read some of the posts on here, I am just hoping that the car is actually built and here, but who knows.

Up until last night by dealer has been telling me my V8 was not apart of the recall because its build date was not within the official recall notice.
Its at the Brunswick port but I was supposed to still be picking it up this Friday. He emailed me last night that the current estimated delivery date has changed to
October

I've had my estimated delivery date change from 8/27 to 10/15. It shipped out on 7/17 so I'm assuming its going to sit until part availability.
Any ideas on how reliable the October dates are? It's a pain to wait but another 6 weeks isn't too bad. If they stretch it out until next year I may have to find another vehicle.
