How Long Does it Take to Order a Car?

There is still a global microchip shortage that is hindering vehicle production and creating an inventory-wide shortage of new vehicles. Many Keyport drivers are deciding to order their new Ford Ranger, but how long does it take to order a car? There is no absolute answer to the question because it varies by manufacturer and chip inventory levels, but we at Tom's Ford can help you with the ordering process. Learn more about how to order a car from the factory with this guide from Tom's Ford and contact us to start the process.

Can you buy a car directly from the manufacturer? No, you can’t. You have to go through a brand-authorized dealership like Tom's Ford. When you factory order your car, you get more control over the features and colors, but it does require some time and patience. The team at Tom's Ford near Middletown is happy to assist you in ordering the precise Ford model, trim level, and amenities you want. Then, we’ll diligently track your order and keep you apprised of its arrival date. Another great reason to order your new Ford is that you’ll get access to packages that might be challenging to find in the Hazlet area.

So, how long does it take to order a car? It will likely take several months, but we can’t promise you a specific delivery date. The wait time depends on several factors that are out of our control, like the labor shortage and where it’s shipping from. When you place your order, the dealership will give you an estimated delivery time, but you should be prepared to wait longer. However, when you get a vehicle with all the bells and whistles you asked for, the wait will have been worth it.
