Please stop spreading your optimism and hope. Occasionally I forget to have crippling despair.:D
Seriously though, if the last few weeks of scheduling haven't convinced you to give up on your numbers, nothing will.
Maybe I misunderstood the scheduling and allocation process, but this seems almost impossible based on my previous understanding. Ford is just trying to drive us all insane...
Again, if anyone knows someone at Ford who is open to blatant bribery, I will raise my initial offer from a case of Grolsch and a puppy, to now include a $100 Chipotle gift card. I will await your call.
I searched this thread....any estimate or experience on how many hours this takes to install? I would try to have my local mechanic do it, or if he isn't interested, the semi-local 4x4 shop.
Thanks!
I was not advocating filing a lawsuit, but a letter from an attorney, or perhaps a simple phone call from one with the threat of a lawsuit would lead them to negotiate the fees down or eliminate them completely.
I once had a traffic ticket that could have endangered my approval to drive for...
Admins - Can we get a sub-section for dealer reviews? Maybe some sort of rating system where a person could enter their dealer name and anyone else could vote on their satisfaction through the ordering and delivery process?
Consult an attorney. Many will give you a 20-30 minute consultation free, or try Avvo. Many attorneys on there charge a minimal consultation fee for an initial appoint, hoping to gain your business. Or maybe you can reach out to Steve Lehto on youtube who is an automotive attorney and...
IIRC, one Tuesday night recently, @fordvideoguy mentioned that NO dealers have enough allocations to cover all their 2023 Maverick orders.
I felt better hearing this after my dealer said they have more orders than allocations. My hope is that Ford issues more allocations as the production...
You have to consider the whole dealer/regional allocation thing and the fact that the same plant makes Bronco Sports. If they run out of Mavericks to build, they could build more BSs, which are in demand also. And the allocation thing means there could be plenty of Mav EB orders that straggle...
I never believed I was entitled. But I believe when I ask, they should understand the question, even if the answer is "NO".
I ordered from a small dealer and was simply trying to figure out if I will get my vehicle in 2023, as I need something soon.
I'm a better person now, after your input.
If you invest the time and money to scan something and clean up the CAD file, you probably deserve something for your trouble. And most home prints using PLA wont last long outdoors.
Yes. If you had a scanner to create a 3D model and the ability to print in an automotive grade, UV stable material. If I start a gofundme page to buy a scanner and printer is everyone on board?
The solution is simple. Take orders in September. In October you schedule part deliveries and production slots for December. Deliver Trucks in January. Allow dealers to order only the number of trucks they will receive 4 months later. Repeat 12 times, then change model years. If for some...
In the tradition of 90s Rap artists, Ford has decided that East Coast Lux packages will be slightly different than West Coast Lux packages. The East Coast package includes moderately warmer heated steering wheels and the West Coast packages substitute 7-Way power driver and 7 way manual...
You also have to remember the aggressive AT tires, the 1" higher front end, new front bumper and increased weight. There is also some reason the payload drops by 2-300#. It means the Tremor is 2-300# heavier.
Heavier truck, more roiling resistance, more drivetrain loss, less aerodynamic = MPG...
