Well that's interesting - I went there but it looks like you have to have a subscription in order to check that out. I won't ask you to check mine, as you'd have thousands of requests!
But as a shortcut, your sticker hasn't changed, nor the status on the Order Tracking, but you show an...
And how do you know that? I am speculating mine is built, because nothing else makes sense. It's gotta be sitting there, waiting to go. As the window sticker says, Ford can't say Built or even Shipped, until the big OK. If your window sticker changes, you're golden.
No known HYBRIDS have been sold yet. But 2.0 sales mean the crash tests are OK, and since the engine's out of the Escape, that's gotta be OK too. So it's the tranny that's the holdup, being tested in combo with the engine.
ESTIMATED, as is mine for 12 days from now. But no EPA approval = cannot be offered for sale. Don't hold your breath, the EPA is a mightly large and unwieldy organization. But you can bet that Ford is pushing as hard as can be pushed, as they have inventory sitting that they can't sell... in...
Yep, I don't think people (other than those of us who jumped on the orders early) are generally understanding or appreciating how sophisticated the hybrid is in order to get that 40mpg+ in a very non-aerodynamic body, and what an incredible deal this is.
Clearly Ford, along with all the other...
I believe Ford's initial estimates were for an even lower hybrid % (35%?), so the new news might be they've increased that, or they have to sit tight as the parts can't come out of thin air - it's that whole supply chain thing...
They are obviously seeing a much higher demand for hybrid than...
Traditional advertising is pretty worthless. It's expensive and about as targeted an airplane towing a banner (which we still see here in SoCal!). I haven't watched a TV ad in 20 years, and don't listen to the radio. Billboards are generally offensive and should be torn down (yay Vermont!)...
Believe it or not, there are people who are believing far more insane things as we write!
And I've seen some really dumb stuff posted on the forum, like people wanting the Mav to be a single cab, ladder framed V6 gaz guzzler. Huh? That's available everywhere else; Ford took a deep redesign...
The bigger picture in your premise is that we are in uncharted territory with Covid and changing consumer attitudes. Spot on. EVs are coming on strong - huge vehicles (unprecedented from a world viewpoint) and gas hogs will be thankfully be passe if even available. This will be my 6th hybrid...
Ford's option is available now, made by DeeZee. You only need one.
VNZ6Z-99406A10-A
Ford has the exclusive on it for now, so no aftermarket until next year some time. But it's not a bad buy right now $40 at some dealers online.
no accessories, just the XL with only a receiver hitch. I don't know what that little Ford Accessories box was, as it wasn't on the web page. I swapped out the pic.
I posted this elsewhere, but thought it deserved its own thread in case this starts to firm up:
My hybrid had a production date of 9/20. There are no updates to Built or Shipped status, but today shows Est. Delivery of 10/18. Window sticker has not updated.
My guess is that it's built, but not...
I agree - it didn't seem to have the full safety package my Rav4 Prime came standard with. The Mav's just going to be my around town weekend warrior truck; no need for a partial "saftey" package for more $ (yah, I'm cheap and Ford's not making much of me). The only option I needed (as opposed...
Odd, my hybrid had a production date of 9/20, no updates, but today shows Est. Delivery of 10/18. Window sticker not updated. My wild guess is that it's built, but not EPA stickered yet, so they can't say Built or Shipped, but are expecting so soon. But WTF knows?

No you don't - they are all wants, none are needs, especially if you are in SoCal. AWD isn't even needed unless you are towing (and don't forget about the trailer brakes if maxing out). All the add-ons are how Ford makes $$$, most are/will be available averaging half the price. If you can get...
