Well, since my XL hybrid with the hitch receiver is built and waiting to be shipped, I'm going to put an extra $20 in the collection plate on Sunday and buy some lottery tickets.
When I switched mine, it took 3 weeks.
Which makes me think that those who switched jumped the line. I've seen quite a few people comment about switching to EB and getting scheduled the next time scheduling took place. A little irritating for those of us already in the EB line, but if you are looking for that missing incentive to jump, Ford may have it right there.
I would bet money this isn't Ford delaying your order. This smells like a Dealer issue...either with putting a 99 Priority Code in for it and not realizing it or they simply do NOT have allocation for the Maverick. Dealer MUST have allocation for Ford to even consider building that vehicle in the Dealers order bank. Ford won't tell you about Dealer allocation, only the Dealer can tell you that info. Sounds like you are still getting e-mails from Ford, which indicates your order IS in the system. I would contact the General Manager. Best to walk in...but a phone call might work.
Exactly. For those who cannot wait for their truck, paying the little extra may be worth it. I think the biggest help i had was not only switching to EB but also changing my priority to 10 from 19. I feel that a hybrid order should try to do that before getting a EB.
As much as many of us would like to see that happen, I don't think we'll get an AWD hybrid anytime soon. An AWD PHEV Maverick (or Ranger) with 4k tow is my white-whale vehicle. But I don't think we'll see something like that within the next 5 years.Totally agree with you. Or worse yet, release the AWD hybrid version. The only reason I would consider the EB is for AWD
It's not as simple as "dragging and dropping" AWD over to the hybrid. I wish that was the case, but there is a lot of engineering that goes into each drivetrain.
Yeah, just skip the extra engineering and testing and certifications required and start slapping them together and collect all that easy extra profit pronto!
Usually later in the day. But given Ford's record the past few week, you might have better luck with this:

Supposedly, Ford will have a hybrid/plug in version for every vehicle by 2025 (if they do as they said, which they don’t have a good record of doing so). So we might get a hybrid/plug in Ranger by 2025 (it is supposedly being tested in Europe)
