People get blinded by how awesome they look and freeze, fail to hit the break, and ultimately destroy what they fell in love with in the same moment. Pure tragedy.
I believe USOB is U.S. Order Banks. Order banks are what retail orders that have not been built, but ordered.
So capacity is what they can do vs retail banks is what orders are left to be made.
that's how I read it anyways.
After reading previous threads I can add a few cents
Unscheduled Hybrids before 9/25 build week was released was just over 20k, there are two more weeks after the 9.25 build week with appx 2k of them being hybrids that week, getting it down to 18kish, a BIG IF the final two weeks they also make...
Is this at all related to mid-year 2023 price increase? I thought the XL Hybrid went from 22195 to 22595, but I don't have the numbers in front of me.
When I go to the dealership in a few months I expect to pay the higher amount, and if I do, will Ford reimburse me the difference eventually via...
A wonderful read @commadorebob ! Thank you for the insight!!
It does make me rhetorically ask though, how the flip is my XL Hybrid being built? I have almost every constrained item, and the worst of the worst...
with the final 3 weeks of production not taken into consideration and 9k XLs left in the order banks, if I read that constraint list properly, I imagine new 24 XL orders are in for a long, strange trip if only 20% of 24 production is XL. I hope carryovers are excluded from the 24 20% XL target...
Since the Manual Window was only for XL/XLT, I wonder how many carryover orders to 24 will lose this relative to the entire carryover population. I don't believe it was a listed constraint in 23. Was the decision to help streamline production?
If the window is a MUST the only option is a 24...
These constraints are for 23 models. They imply that if you have ordered certain parts, trims, or engines, Ford does not have the ability to produce them all with the parts/capacity they have. Thus, an increased likelihood of your order not being built. Unless you are a lucky, lucky person like me.
Greetings all, long time lurker, first time posting.
I got an email for my build today so finally feel like it is time to contribute and be part of the maverick family. I never thought this would come considering all the constraint items.
