allocations? dealer has plenty with to cover all 7 hybrid orders and 1 ecoboost at the dealership.

Allocations are part of it. We had a bunch of discussions about this during the first few scheduling weeks. This is what I said then:

I imagined that they prioritize the [scheduling] process something like:

1. Supply chain (what's available to build within the current constraints right now)
2. Manufacturing efficiency (most common/like models that can be built together)
3. Geography (allocating for greatest shipping efficiency/dealer allocations)
4. Order date (after all else have been accounted for, there may be some priority given to early orders)

Even bumping the order date up to #3 in the prioritization will start to cause issues in a JIT process because you may start to have stocking/shipping issues that could back up manufacturing (issues that wouldn't be there with fewer/more simple builds). I think if people want their order date prioritized based on other's with similar builds (which is what I get from "step 2"), you'd still get more delays in manufacturing because they'd probably just delay building that specific spec because they couldn't/wouldn't ship the earlier order date as soon as the later order date (now two people are without a build and the process a unit behind). I.e., if all the first three priorities line up and there's capacity for one more unit to be delivered, but it is for someone who ordered after someone else, should that unit not be built/delivered

What you should also consider is that June/July probably have more orders than any other month since there was a huge push for reservations. Also, it's good to remember that Ford isn't trying screw you or anyone else (they don't even know who you are). They want to build, deliver, and sell the units as fast as possible (that's what their whole process is set up to do)

Opened my email @ 2:30 today and what a suprise! My Hot Pepper Red Hybrid Lariat with Lux package, and Co-Pilot 360 is Scheduled for Production the week of Jan 17, 2020. I ordered it from Sarasota Ford 7/05/2021. They are building our Mavericks at last!

Nov 2 order date for a Lariat EB. I'm hopeful but not expecting a scheduling email today. Best of luck everybody!

Best of luck, but I ordered something similar at the end of August and still no build date.

If I don't get an e-mail today... I'll ugly grown man cry... Just joined the group, is there any reason my build would be delayed? I heard rumor the spary-in bed liners hold things up

I am scheduled 12/13 with a spray in bed liner.

Congratulations to all that got a build date. I will be living thru all your joy and experiences until I get my own. Ordered 10/30 so not looking to get anything until May or June. Please post your impression once you receive your new Maverick. Interested in hearing how it does in winter driving. Enjoy

So - I live in a small town = small dealership. Order confirmed on 7/9 - still no email - didn't order anything fancy: XLT, Hybrid, Lux. Just curious if anyone has moved to production from a small dealer or if only the big boys are getting scheduled. Thoughts?

I didn't get the EB (Ecoboost) reference. That might give you a better shot since I ordered the Hybrid.

 

[rclee]

I hope you're right! After talking to my salesman yesterday I really thought this would be my week! So far nothing yet !

I am right there with you Chris. 6/19 XLT LUX order

XLT Hybrid Lux ordered 8/17 so I should be behind you. I put the first order in at our dealership and it's a pretty small market/dealer. Will keep an eye on when you get yours.

 

[Hanto]

AWesome! I bet your going to love it! But seriously, what the hell. 7/7 hybrid lux and can't get a production date.

Did you order XLT or Lariat?
