Can XL builds get the SIBL/cargo system bundle deal? When I build an XL online, there is no option to add the cargo system. Forgive me if this was already answered, this thread has blown up!

Both will do the same thing, move your order date to today's date.

The Memo says in the last paragraph that changing to less constrained items will not change your place in line, that it is based on Allocations and commodities. Changing from Hybrid XL to EB XLT should move your build way up if the dealer has an allocation.

The spreadsheet was "back of the napkin" math. Ford said before Hybrid was 68% of orders and now say they are 73% of orders. So, either they scheduled a lot more than the planned production of 65% EB last month or the outstanding Cancelled VINs that are now included in that count.

68% number was also before they started building them. Looks like they are currently at 73% hybrid. Obviously been building more EB trucks until now. I hope a lot of people switch to EB, because half of the Hybrid orders won't be built otherwise. I drive 90% heavy stop and go city, so it's Hybrid or bust for me. If I drove lots of highway I'd switch to the EB. I am willing to switch from XL to XLT if that helps though.

I was planning to go straight from the dealership to a local shop for a spray in whenever mine actually shows up, then build a tie down rail from the thread on this forum. This makes it much cheaper and quicker. I wasn't impressed with the factory spray in that my Dodge has but I might just take a chance on this for the price with the rail included.

Same. At my dealer trying to get these two added now.

We would think.

I called and talked to a sales manager. He is investigating it. He says Ford cancelled it and they reordered it Nov 16 which is more than likely as I had a 2022 VIN. All of that should have been part of the rollover/transition program for unfulfilled 2022 orders.

The private offer is now being researched to see why we are not seeing the private offer. According to Tim Bartz, (sp?) it could be a name related issue (has to match 2022 order process for 2023) or that the COVP (customer ordered verified program) was not verified for 2022. They can fix the first issue, but if it is the second, I am SOL.

wish you luck. from what I've seen about LL on this forum you'll need it.

I need as many ppl to switch over to the EB as possible...... Until the EB is constrainted....lol

At one time I thought there was constraint on the drop in bed liner. Anyone know what’s going on with that?

 

[JT Maverick]

Very good information. Thank you for sharing.

It does look like they are saying they will allow changing from hybrid to EB? @KevCuRaoi and/or @fordvideoguy ???

In pretty photo form:

In November, for my canceled/transitioned 23MY order, I did include both $495 SIBL and $225 Cargo Management System ($720 total). They appear separately on my Order Summary at those prices. But I don't know what order codes were used. Would order codes 96G and 61D have been used at that time? If so, with this new bundled offer will the $225 simply disappear once my final itemized order appears?

@fordvideoguy @KevCuRaoi

Good question. Will this discount be retroactive to people who already have both items on their orders?

I am beginning to think that Ford just does not want to build the hybrid Maverick. I think the profit margin is just no there for them. I don't totally buy all this constraint item bull crap. I read on Ford Authority news that they are adding a third shift to meet the demand for the F150 lightning. Seams to me they would not be doing that if they did not have parts. The only reason people are drawn to the Maverick is it being sold with a hybrid. If you remove the hybrid option they would have no issues with building the vehicle. I for one will not switch my order to EB because I don't want it.

And yet again Ford hangs us out to dry. My ‘22 order with a canceled VIN was rolled over to ‘23 and already got scheduled. I’m obviously glad it’s scheduled, but now I’m paying $495 for a spray in bedliner when everybody else can get the SIBL and cargo system for $495.

Ditto

Great. Just what I wanted to hear about LL. Woof. Wish I had known before I ordered the second one.

Too much competition for the materials to make the batteries. My guess.
