My hybrid has the hitch and 360

Just got an email from Ford that they moved up the build week from 10/10 to 9/26! Strange things are afoot at the Circle K, man.

They scheduled my 10/25 XLT hybrid order this week. VIN too

Just got an email from the dealership that my XLT hybrid was scheduled today!!! Build week of 10/10, I have a VIN B,4489 but no window sticker. We shall see, but I was VERY surprised to hear that it has a chance.

So how does one figure out how many allocations each dealer gets? Might be helpful for 2023 ordering...

Some dealer in Illinois just sold this shadow of a Maverick for $25k.

Hey, no need to be prickly about it.

What a corny picture.

Incredibly efficient! You can barely power a lightbulb, but the same amount of energy will take you a few miles down the road. I guess that's possible when you aren't carrying your living room with you.

of course people with disabilities would need a different bike/trike setup, but I encourage everyone who can to have a working set of human powered wheels. One of humanity’s most underrated inventions.

My backup evac vehicle is a cargo bike.

This is the only bit of leverage available. If you feel like you've been totally left in the dark by your sales rep, AND you want to test the dealer's mettle, tell them you're going down the road instead. They might just throw you a (small) bone to keep the order.

Floored no one has named theirs Pete or Tom. Many forum threads are good for a Top Gun reference or two.

Based on @fordvideoguy's Youtube vids, this extension will be exclusively Ecoboosts. So if you don't have a VIN and maybe even a sticker by the end of the week, you're probably out of luck for a MY22. And with a production start in November...dang we're not getting our trucks until 2024. I'm...

Gotcha, I see the difference between engine build location and final assembly location.

Have the hybrids and EB engine vehicles always been built in different facilities? I thought all of them were at Hermosillo, but the specs say the EB will be built in Cleveland and Spain now.

I expected to have to make a deposit, but my dealer said it was up to me. So I made sure to have signed paperwork before I left the dealer many, many months ago. No deposit, and the original paperwork as well as a lengthy trail of emails tying me to my order.

Much more likely that the boomer that wrote the memo is stuck in the 80s typing this on MS DOS.

Thanks everyone for explaining that Cactus Grey will (likely) still be on the table. I mean, I wouldn't want to change my avi... *whispers* I'd change it for Desert Sand or Eruption Green...
