I do like his swagger. And there’s just been so many smart things going on at Ford lately. New icons, Ford + and more. I I remember seeing it around 6 and kicked myself for not buying it. I did pick mine up at 12 though. If it goes down again, I’ll liquidate a hedge against economic...

Filing a claim will show up on the vehicles history and lower the vehicles value. Ford has great parts, service and body shops. Why not pop in and ask a pro? There’s a master tech on this forum somewhere taking questions, it couldn’t hurt to ask. If you do need to repair through insurance...

Gotta see this video, Jim Farley, CEO of Ford, especially at 8:40 mark. Makes me proud to own the stock. https://www.cnbc.com/2021/12/09/ford-stops-reservations-for-f-150-lightning-electric-pickup-because-of-demand-ceo-tells-cramer.html

Ford parts and service have always treated us well, over the years. Probably the best part of the dealership model. It doesn’t mean that I won’t give them a hard time on a unable to duplicate but certainly nothing unusual in the review. In fact, it’s kinda sorta the initial part of the...

Nicely done. I came close to ordering an XL AWD eco boost and doing some customizations but stuck with the hybrid. Your build definitely shows the potential of going that route and making it your own. Everything about it is sharp with that black/white contrast.

Gotcha beat:

It depends. While you may have fewer parts wearing out on the Santa Cruz and a better warranty, replacement parts on the Maverick will be less expensive and easier to repair. To me that’s a tie. More MSRP on the Santa Cruz, means faster depreciation. Santa Cruz doesn’t seem to excite their...

If anyone wants to follow improvements Ford has actually identified and discussed with the shareholders and the capital markets back in May 2021. It’s on their investor page, link and excerpt below. https://media.ford.com/content/fordmedia/fna/us/en/news/2021/05/26/capital-markets-day.html...

Actually my comments are not a fairy tale but actual facts, as opposed to the conjecture/fairy tale provided in your prior post. I just amplified your comments to show how silly it sounds, along with a sarcastic or not. You’re making a ton of assumptions by leaps and bounds, none of which is...

After 15+ years of Ford ownership, I’m having a hard time believing they will change their ways and choose to listen to individual customers on this forum after expressing to Ford customer service for years about how much I love their dealers for service but hate buying a vehicle from dealers...

There’s a few folks on this forum that said Vroom worked out well for them. You shouldn’t have a problem but taxes may eat some of the profit. Definitely should check out the motor vehicle tax laws to understand the cost of the flip. Just level set that dealerships price it on the lot for top...

That’s a bit of a stretch. Laws are passed by elected representatives. State laws are documented in State Statutes, [fun fact, in NC we cleverly called them the General Statutes]. Federal laws are documented in the Federal statutes, or the United States Code (USC). Those statutes assign a...

I would presume a Ford Representative would look at this thread the same way we do for entertainment purposes only, or not at all. I mean would you read a forum about your employer in your off, or spare time? Would you see your employer paying people to read forum posts? I wouldn’t expect a...

Lower the better, 19 is lowest priority for retail and 10 is the highest priority. So older orders being skipped over may sometimes be explained by backlog at that dealership, lack of dealer allocations at the dealership, lower priority given by the dealership (priority code 19 vs 10), order...

Retail orders are ranked at the dealership 10-19. I really liked this post, explaining how Ford schedules.

Very nice. Also appreciate the video, as I have these on order.

Tuve la oportunidad de ver cactus gris en persona y se ve realmente nítido. Lástima que el Área 51 sea de un color muy agradable y se ve aún mejor en persona. No se preocupe por el inglés, Google tiene un buen traductor si está disponible en su país, solo busque traducir feo, español a inglés...

Better to vent here than somewhere else. We probably all felt that way if we were honest. I feel that way after one month and you‘ve got three months to my one month, lol. I know it’s got to be hard seeing recent orders go before earlier orders, especially for the June to July folks. For me...

I was in the same boat, except I’m a grumpy old man and not yet retired. I was going to go that way base XL but hybrid. I opted for the XLT with Luxury package b/c I got $6k back on my mustang by selling to Carvana and find the heated seats do wonders for the back, when I go for a long drive...

As I said we may have to agree to disagree b/c I’d never throw my money away on a Kia, Mercedes, or Nissan. I only keep replying with facts so other folks on this forum would know how to make sure they aren’t too upside down going into their purchase. And so they don’t fall for the crooked...
