Spoke with my dealer and he was very annoyed of all the fleet orders taking up capacity for mavericks and escapes. He said that ford drops everything to build them.

Makes sense. /sNot entirely true. There are cases where a dealer with allocations and no available orders will have their allocation given to another dealer that has an order that matches. But I think those are uncommon occurrences.
That’s what I’ve been saying for a couple months now!By the time Ford decides to build mine I will probably have saved enough to buy the truck outright![]()
That's called a ouiji boardI need to create one of those probability charts like they have in sports during the game. All I know is each passing week, the probability of my hybrid Maverick being built is lower.

And that's exactly why I opted to buy a '23 Area 51 Lariat Hybrid First Edition from a local dealer. It had sat for several months waiting for parts on the Air Bag recall, and by the time they came in, the original orderer opted for something else. Got the call at 5 PM, and it was sitting in my driveway at 8 PM. Would have been sooner, but there was only one finance guy working, and someone came in right before me and bought matching F150s for him and his wife, so I had to wait.I need to create one of those probability charts like they have in sports during the game.

That's the silver lining I'm trying to take away from all this: as of right now I've saved enough for all the immediate accessories I'll want after delivery (folding tonneau, tint, pet covers, floor mats, etc.) and the equivalent of a couple months of payments. The less I have to finance with these interest rates, the better!By the time Ford decides to build mine I will probably have saved enough to buy the truck outright![]()
You know it's bad when people start breaking out high SAT score words like "sanguine" up in here!it allows me to be a lot more sanguine as I watch the odds of MY hybrid order getting built get reduced week after week.
What is clean up scheduling actually? I seems they do more clean up scheduling than just plain scheduling!![]()
Clean up scheduling this week according to Tommy.
