I kind of feel like the people of this forum have proven that sometimes less information is better. I can't imagine what people would do if given access to weekly alerts directly from Ford's system. Panic four times as hard, probably.
My point was that prioritization is occurring based on several factors, many of which are likely obscured from us.
They are absolutely prioritizing by order date. Just not only by order date.
I don't think many people understand how much decision making has already been offloaded onto machines. Our meat just can't keep up with silicon sometimes. Best we can do is set objectives, feed the machine the best data we can (This is where many organization fail), and hope for the best.
They are almost certainly prioritizing by:
Date of order
Availability of components
Ability to deliver (Probably one of the reasons why many Hybrid orders were deprioritized)
Delivery batches (Why allocation is by dealer, not purely by date of order)
Efficiency of deliveries (Why send a half...
You are, at this moment, living in the Data Age. You can no more avoid data collection and becoming a product than our ancestor could avoid bronze and iron tools.
You've really only got two options - Learn how this new world works and moderate your exposure as best you can, or join Project...
They will never remove radios from vehicles. The cost is basically non-existent and highways still use radio stations for emergency bulletins and messages.
If you're talking about Carsifi, technically it uses both Bluetooth and Wifi. Wifi is used for actual Android Auto function, and Bluetooth for phone pairing.
I'm not sure if there's something special about that Bluetooth pairing or, more likely, its just a way to force the phone off your...
It's a 2005 Impala, so really the only thing the Maverick wont have, period, is Cruise Control. In my normal driving, I have an opportunity to use it maybe once every 3 months, so whoop-de-doo.
Interesting how many of the reviewers talk about how its not typical they're being given barebone XLs from Ford. Seems like they still like it all the same.
Sorry. I should have put it into the 50-60s to make it more obvious.
Still, your daily reminder that anyone can hit F12 on their browser and make a webpage screenshot say anything they want. Whenever you see an image online that makes you confused or angry or scared or maybe just a bit too...
Here's the Maverick vs. a 2008 Ranger.
2022 Maverick vs 2008 Ranger Comparison Look Side by Side | MaverickTruckClub.com - 2022+ Ford Maverick Pickup Forum, News, Info
Quick googling says the 2008 Ranger is within a few inches in every dimension of the 2000 Ranger Extended Cab.
Diesels have a poor reputation regarding emissions, its more expensive per gallon (People are bad at doing miles per dollar math), and there's been some pretty recent scandals regarding diesel emissions.
I suspect there must be something wrong in the supply chain for the hybrid. Ford seems perfectly content letting unfinished F150s stack up in the desert like cordwood, not sure why they wouldn't do the same with Mavericks that are complete and could be shipped off as soon as someone in the EPA...
