  1. Are the order bank computers working Friday morning?

    That screen is real interesting. That is 100% for sure an IBM iSeries (AS/400, IBM i, etc. They kept on renaming it.) That is what I programed on before I retired. That system is not fancy but it is rock solid for things like processing orders and large data bases so with an appropriate...
  2. Are the order bank computers working Friday morning?

    I agree, that is why I was asking here instead of trying to contact my dealer.
  3. Are the order bank computers working Friday morning?

    I have not heard from my dealer or gotten the Ford email year and I did not want to bug him if he is still trying to enter a bunch of orders and having problems. I know that he has at least a few dozen orders to enter. Also when it is working about how long does it take to enter each order...
  4. 2023 "XL" Trim Changes ... provide your inputs.

    I was just looking through the packaging guide and it looks like the XL driver and passenger seats now have lumbar supports. I don't think the 22 had those.
  5. What’s new: changes for 2023 Maverick

    One way to think if it is that Ford likely needs to order parts and sign contracts for all the stuff they need to build the Mavericks a year in advance. They may estimate that they will make 100,000 2023 Mavericks (a made up number). They said 10% for the black appearance package which...
  6. Video: Hybrid Wiring Harness Failure (No Start / Crank) Repair. Excellent video

    The good news is that it looks like an easy fix to prevent the problem in hybrids that are going to me made in the future.
  7. 2023 XL vs XLT

    Here is the best list of differences for 2022 that I could find. EXTERIOR ● 17” Painted Aluminum Wheels ● Cubby Storage in Bed (Passenger Side) ● Cargo Tie Downs, plus four (+4) ● Gray Grille Bar ● Maverick XLT Fender Badge ● Mirrors, Sideview – Manual-folding, Power Glass w/ Spotter ● Power...
  8. Strangely enough, it works

    Anything that is not on the grayscale would be better than another bland truck.
  9. 2023 Maverick Transition Private Offer Amounts = Hybrid $2750 / Ecoboost $1750

    I think some people have unrealistic expectations which will cause them to be disappointed. 1) If Ford did not have the constrained parts to build your Maverik as a 22 in November then the parts will not magically appear in December so they can build it as a 23 even if you have priority. 2)...
  10. 2023 Maverick Transition Private Offer Amounts = Hybrid $2750 / Ecoboost $1750

    If they become uncompetitive on price and they get too many Mavericks on dealers lots it is easy to add a rebate or financing incentive. Don't hold your breath waiting for that.
  11. ⏰ No Maverick Scheduling This Week (9/12). 2023MY Scheduling Starts 9/29/22

    I am sure they could build any version they have parts for and dealers would be more than happy to put them on their lots. The same goes if they have any left over capacity the last week of 2022 production.
  12. Is the Hybrid wiring harness problem fixed in trucks being made now?

    I tried searching for this but I could not find an answer. Does anyone know for sure if the problem with the hybrid wiring harness connection that is causing dead Mavericks has been fixed in trucks that are being made now? If so any idea when the production fix was made?
  13. Final 2022 VINs by Close of Business 9/8. Reorder Banks Open 9/15. New Order Banks Open 9/30.

    Frustrating but production does not start until late November so it functionally does not make any difference, especially if the extra time means they don't screw it up.
  14. Returned my Maverick. Leaving the Group.

    If it is white then that is exactly what my other car is and (knock on wood) it has not been in the shop for anything other than the free oil changes since I bought it new 18 months ago. You should really enjoy it. I have not done it but the Forester has a limited towing capacity so if you...
  15. Episode 54: How are Dealer Allocations Earned & How Will it Affect Your Order

    I don't understand it but it sounds like the takeaway from this is that if you want a Maverick you should place a dozen orders at different dealerships with a refundable(or no) deposit then see which one comes in first. You could then cancel the orders at the other dealerships. I live in a...
  16. Dead (really dead) 12V Battery

    Do you have anything added to it like a dash cam or wireless adapter for your cell phone? If so that could have drained the battery. Completely discharging a car battery can damage it so it really should not be that bad in three weeks. People leave them at an airport for that long all the...
  17. Maverick orders are getting scheduled today

    I am just guessing but it could be that the availability of transportation is a factor in selecting which trucks to schedule. If there is no space on trains available to take Mavericks to Philadelphia(or some other bottleneck) then it would make sense to build Mavericks for some other...
  18. Maverick orders are getting scheduled today

    Thank, it is good to know that on the "is the glass half full or half empty" scale that around 79% of people will get the 22 Maverick that they ordered. You hear so much about the people that will get rolled over to 23 orders that it is easy to forget about how many people got them.
  19. Maverick orders are getting scheduled today

    It would be real interesting to know how that compares to the number of ordered Mavericks that have actually been made or at least scheduled. Excluding the large rental company order roughly what percent of your retail customer orders should get a 22? Thanks for all you have done. Greg
  20. Now I’m PO’d

    Be sure to read up on your states lemon law and make sure that you do everything that you need to do to document that and have the "all your i's dotted and T's crossed" so that you can use that if you need to. You don't want to do anything by mistake which would impede your lemon law rights...
