Holy Moly, I Just Got a VIN!!!! -- Week of 11/7

[pa-outdoorsman]

Hoping for everyone who’s still waiting sake they get as many as they can done in 22. Just feel like all of these VIN’s with constant production week pushes seems extremely ambitious.

They don't want to price protect everyone so they're going to build as many 22s as possible.

I have a Dec 6 order. Lariat 2.0 awd, 4k. I removed the fx4. My dealer was confident I would get built. Talked to him on Monday, I called today and I have a nov7 build date. Pepper red. I check my order at the website, and the fx4 is still showing, I am not sure if is a shadow from the original order.
Goid luck to everyone waiting. Someone with a late January order got a build date too, same dealer.

Cool. Congrats! And yes, the pictures on the order tracker are renderings and the colors aren't really true to life. Don't worry about it. Your HPR Maverick will be stunning!

I called Ford to make sure my First Edition was still rescheduled to Sept 13th and was able to get the VIN for my wife's XLT and a build date of Oct 24th Now I am not in as big of a doghouse for getting mine first.

The Bronco Sport is a sharp vehicle.

Not really, but ok. You do you

Looks like my celebration was premature.
Turns out someone else has the same order code as mine and they were the one who got scheduled. I'm still in order processing.

Just for kicks, I figured I'd hit up Ford chat this afternoon for a status update on my order. Mind you, my original order was Jan. 25, I've seen absolutely no movement so far and my dealer basically told me about three weeks ago that I would be pushed to MY23. Last week, he told me I was 20th out of 21 unscheduled orders at the dealership in terms of order date.

Well, imagine my SHOCK when the customer service rep gave me a VIN, a build week of Nov. 7 and an expected delivery date of Dec. 7. I certainly won't be surprised if there are some additional delays, but the mere possibility of getting my truck by Christmas is amazing. I am not sure it's quite sunk in yet, TBH.

My dealer is Koch 33 Ford in Easton, Pa., and the details of my build specs are Ecoboost XLT, LUX, FX4, 4K Tow, Hot Pepper Red with Full-Size Spare. FWIW, I am sure glad I did not remove the LUX package from order!

Oh, my VIN ends with B11,5XX. So, looks like Ford is up to more than 111,000 Mavericks to be produced.

I'll keep you all posted...

Great news for you congratulations. A friend of mine ordered his Maverick in January also now a vin number and a build date.I had my XLT since November of 2021 and I love my truck.No problems except I had to get my gas tank replaced because of spray in bedliner, when they drilled the plug holes and nick the gas tank.I am from the Easton Area too and will be taking my truck to Koch for my first oil change shortly.

I kind of agree! I saw many January orders with my same specs get scheduled as far back as February, while folks who ordered last June and July are STILL waiting.

Lucky you. You and I basically ordered the same vehicle except for the tow package. I ordered mine on October 14th. Still no VIN. I was able to purchase one at MSRP off the lot from the dealer I placed my order with. It’s’ a Lariat, not an XLT. And it’s white, not cactus grey. And it cost me @ 3500 more than the XLT But it’s a truck. My original order has not been cancelled. Not sure what I will do if it gets scheduled, but I have to say I do like the conveniences the Lariat has to offer.

Sounds like it worked out pretty well for you. I was thinking about switching from XLT to Lariat if I had carried over to MY23. As you said it has a lot of conveniences.

It did. The one I bought was ordered by a salesperson at the dealership on October 6th. Immediately after ordering, they got one almost exactly to her specs so she decided to lease it. They kept her order to put on the lot when it came in. Knowing there were no guarantees that I would actually get mine this year, they offered me her order when it scheduled for production. I picked it up 9 days ago. Like I said, different, but still a truck. Five stars to Keller Bros Ford in Lebanon, PA. They made me a very happy customer.

Hey! I'm also in PA in the Reading area. Got my VIN in July 2022(July 2021 order), same day that email came out about pushing to 23s. Originally had a 8/31 scheduled production date, pushed to 9/5. I reached out to Ford via the chat and the person I spoke with told me I had been pushed to 9/12 with an ETA of 10/5. Not sure how they plan to get my Mav built and sent to PA in 3 and 1/2 weeks, I feel that's a pipe dream but we'll see. I got an email from Ford this morning confirming the 9/12 pushed date.

Good luck with your Maverick I hope you do get it. Has been such a mess this year getting the Maverick built

Thanks! I’m really looking forward to it. Crossing my fingers I don’t get another delayed build email this week. I noticed you’re also from PA. What part if you don’t mind me asking?
