* UPDATE*10/20* Dealer Hybrid hasn't been approved by government

[OTACORB]

Aren’t there already hybrids being built and shipped for confirmed orders?

Built YES, shipped No, there is currently no OKTB on them so they cannot ship them.

Wonder if it's possible they aren't building a ton of hybrid's right now because they are waiting on the numbers and don't want too many just waiting around ready to ship? hopefully once the numbers come out they start cranking more hybrids out.

Not sure if that's realistic but I can definitely see a shipping nightmare building hybrids at max capacity for 2-3 months and having to ship them all out at once

Regardless I can wait an extra 4 months for mine. More downpayment money

I am not trying to stir up any hype, just posting what I was told from my dealer. In all fairness it would have been easier to not go out of their way and waste their time to text, call or email me. Not to mention making a a story as to why I'm not getting a truck 4 months in advance of the estimated date. But time will tell, and I'm not sure if ill even get my $5.00 back i had to pay to order, I probably should have ask darn it........

Honestly it sounds like your salesperson is either miss informed or on a more likely note trying to put you into an eb to make the sale faster. Nothing like waiting a few extra months to make a paycheck. Maybe ask @fordvideoguy.

They said I could can change to gas and have it in a month or so, my dealer in so cal has gotten 3 in , one was not picked up so was able to be test driven, they marked it up 5k and sold next day. So gas powered are out and about

Your dealer may be trying to grab your Hybrid order. He will not cancel your Hybrid order if you change to EB. They can't order Hybrids for stock. What if you get scheduled soon?
Hybrids have left the plant already so that seems fishy. They have not been released to customers but that all does not add up. Hopefully he is incorrect!

People called this person a "troll" in the other post. Will they now buck up and apologize?

I had a option of buying eb in stock the day before I ordered this. He did not even care about selling it. I told him we need the hybrid. There was no pressure at all for anything.

Who accused who of being a troll?
I bet I know who and who...
My Defining Force, Jesus Christ, tells me to forgive and not be confrontational.

Hopefully the ford rep was wrong, ordering is only 5$ and id copy so it seems that would have been easy to tell us to both order one if they need hybrid stock and give me a discount on the one we buy of more than 5$. Or something like that.

I'm sure many were converted orders but the dealers would easily be able to enter a second order in your name. Some people have ordered two trucks - one fellow already has two build dates! They really want Hybrids so I would not put anything past them.
