🗓️ Maverick Scheduling This Week (4/20/23) For Production Weeks Through 6/26

[GA Hot Pepper]

All I can do is wait, like many on this forum. Ordered the Maverick for my 14 year old grandson. Thinking I could try it out for a while. Then see if I would order a 24‘ for us. At least we have a few more months of production.

Likely cleanup. Don't expect the volume we saw last week.

Sadly yes

I have received my Maverick so I have not really been keeping up with the scheduling. However, I am curious; I noticed that this week's announcement includes retail, STOCK, and fleet. Has stock scheduling been in past announcements? I keep thinking that quite a few stock EB's will be coming, much to disappointment of those with hybrid orders but maybe the eventual start of lower ADM for prospective EB buyers. It would be nice as MY23 production gets closer to ending, if Ford would assure someone with a hybrid order, that a switch to EB would (NOT MAYBE) result in their receiving an EB before they start rolling out stock orders.

This is the first time that I can remember seeing stock scheduling listed in a weekly scheduling notice. I do remember seeing both retail and fleet being listed on the same weekly schedule previously.

Also when my wife saw this scheduling announcement listed on another board it did mention that this week would be cleanup scheduling. Interesting that this clipping doesn't mention cleanup. Not sure what's up with that?

Ford never once mentioned during the retail ordering process that the base hybrid model would only be a third of production. That's not true. In fact they still haven't flowed it down to customers. I've only seen it via screenshots on here. No communication whatsoever from Ford or their dealers.

If you are talking about this, Ford sent it to dealerships before ordering opened. Ford doesn't take non-EV orders directly from customers, so there is no reason to tell us anything. We order from dealers. My dealer was very up front about how limited the hybrids were. It sounds like you just have a crap dealership as Ford has never been less clear that hybrids would be limited.

I just purchased a new suv on Friday, so my luck it will get chosen this week (LOL). So if so, my dealer will love me as I will just tell them to sell it.

If you are in the south let me know and I'll take your order

Again, Ford never publicly published/informed retail orderers that the base model hybrid was constrained before, during or even after the retail order process (even now their communications to me do not mention production quotas or allocations but the "supply chain", which is misleading by Ford). People wouldn't have ordered them if they had (or would've hedged by ordering other vehicles in parallel). So I can see why the poster feels lied to by omission. It's unreasonable to be like "hey you were informed" because of internal conversations they had with their dealerships (and where Ford did not tell the dealerships their allocations beforehand or how many sales there were in real time so they could judge the likelihood of a build). Ford could've told each dealership to sell X vehicles with Y configurations, that's just basic logistics. The fact they chose not to is why people are mad.

Also, not to beat a dead horse but Ford specifically highlighted the base constrained vehicle in their marketing campaign, "look a hybrid truck for under 20k".

Well maybe I'll get an email...

Well im not getting my hopes up

Spending more time on cleanup than production!!!!

Well im not getting my hopes up

My mom's Aunt used to say 'live in hope and die in despair'! lol

I found out I am the only Maverick Tremor order at my dealership over the weekend. They didn’t divulge any info. about their allocations to me but I would assume I should definitely get scheduled sometime soon as a gas power train & sole Tremor order at the dealership right? Trying to stay positive!

What makes you think they are lying to customers? What makes you think or what source of information do you have to say "they have all the parts" ? They are building 2023s through October. You ordered a hybrid. They were never going to produce more than 35-40% of Hybrids for this model which certainly is a tough pill for those that ordered one, but it is also reality.

Then they just need to tell those not getting their 2023 Hybrids so they can order a 2024 or move on.

New to posting here, and have been lurking for some time. Hoping that joining everyone waiting online vs. just lurking will bring some good vibes our way.

A couple of observations and questions after a brief chat with my salesperson yesterday:

- There are many, many things I could have done to spend my time more wisely than get the non-answers I got! Favorite quotes: "I'm not sure." "It's up to you." "I think..." "I can't answer that..."
- I know there are many posts about dropping constrained items like the hitch, but what about upgrading from one trim to another? Is that even possible at this point in the process?
- Could it be possible that a small dealership has only received *one* 2023 build, even with many orders?

South??? I ordered in south Texas, does that count?
