So whatever allocation Ford gave them for the year must not have been anywhere near 63 per month after that. Because i would think he would be happy with 63 per month on average.
Nah he said the 63 were for next month to take care of 22 orders. I think he was saying that the 63 would be the basis for their allocation of 23 orders, which he was happy with, however he was not happy with what annual allocation of 23's Ford sent them.
Also no changing engine type at all... Even Hybrid to EB is a no go.
I am still not understanding the allocations that they are giving dealers. They received a low allocation from Ford and then he is expecting the 63 mavericks (MY22's) they are scheduled to receive in the next month is...
I am imagining them checking off items while in production:
Plant Manager: Hybrid Drivetrain?
Procurement: Check.
Plant Manager: Battery?
Procurement: Check.
Plant Manager: Splash guards?
Procurement: ...
Plant Manager: Splash guards???
Procurement: We haven't got it. Guess this truck is gonna...
That's not how i read that at all. Why wouldn't hybrid be on that list if that were the case?
But all i am saying is if it is on that constraint list you should probably avoid ordering it.
That being said if i wanted to Copilot 360 i would order it anyway, you cant add it later.
I think they want to have those materials secured for the year. But my understanding of the constraint list is that they are items that are currently holding up or slowing down production of those models.
But your guess is as good as mine, i don't understand having a list of constraints if they...
I am not sure where people are getting the cp360 is not a constraint, it was at the top of list. Hybrid has never been documented as a constraint, that is supposition.
I will have to check with ford chat, but it did come from the [email protected] email. And it did come from the dealership that i spoke with only once and whom apparently submitted an order on my behalf.
I got both but the preview arrived prior to the confirmed email.. I wasn't sure what it was because I did not receive a preview order sheet with the other dealer.
Not sure, but i received the exact same email back on the 9/19 from a dealer who I didn't order with because they were slow, then they put the order in anyway after i had already ordered with another dealer on 9/16.
