After 11 months since I ordered it, my Velocity Blue XL hybrid W/ CP360 was finally built yesterday. Today I read that there is a good possibility of a national rail strike next week. I'm never going to get my Maverick :(

There’s always some type of reason or excuse for logistics problems. First it was COVID, then the port problem, a problem with freight ships not being able to port, then port storage problems, then special licensing the truck drivers needed to have to access the port to pick up goods, the chip shortage, constraints delaying production, shutdowns at Hermasillo several times, and now the possible railworkers strike. Not to mention that Ford grossly underestimated their target market and how many they were going to sell were way above their projected quota!!

Me too. Built Aug 31st. According to Ford Chat has been built and released from factory and is awaiting shipping. ETA of Sept 22 - Sept 28th. Now with the potential strike who knows when it will get here ??? I would love sept 22nd. But i doubt it.

Checked on mine this afternoon as well and still sitting, same as yours…. Funny thing is that they were still giving an ETA of 9/12 to 9/18 for delivery and guess what, that falls at the beginning of next week lol

Count yourself lucky. I just got bumped to 2023 which is probably going to cost me about $2k more in interest payments on my loan.

Ordered 7/26/21, so going on 14 months for me - Hybrid, FE, RR, Lux Pkg, CoPilot 360 built on 8/30/22 & awaiting shipment with ETA of 9/13 to 9/19 according to Ford CS today. Sounds unrealistic to reach Central IL in that it has not been put on a railcar yet.

Another holder of the ultra rare Hybrid First edition RR here.. Was built on 8/15 and shipped on 9/3 to Virginia Beach, VA. ETA of 10/3 - 10/9. Also the only FE and RR order my dealer had.

I ordered the same exact vehicle 10/30/21. It was completed two days ago, awaiting testing and shipment. My wife and I want to do a cross country trip, but if it delays too much, the weather won’t cooperate.
