I ordered Oct 24, Lariat Lux Hybrid. Dealer knows about as much as any other dealer, which is not much besides be patient. They field my emails and have been kind enough to tell me where I sit in the Hybrid que and the dealers average allocations each month. Makes me feel better as I wait
Hi All,
Curious what the opinions of folks on here would be regarding my Hybrid Lariat Lux order is regarding scheduled date.
-Ordered 10/24
-dealer in Colorado, front range area

I'm thinking they'll announce it sometime in late July or early August. I'll go with late in the day on Aug 5th since it's a Friday and people will have the weekend to cool down.
If Ford's goal is to maximize shareholder value doesn't it make sense that more Ecoboost are being scheduled? They require less chips, and if there's a chip shortage every hybrid = lost revenue.
Maybe they're pushing EBs for a few months then they'll flip back.
