I have received a scheduled to start production 1/31 email back on Dec. 2. Since then I was rescheduled forward and backwards about 3 times, and received an email with each one that contained a link to Track my build. The other day those stopped working (page not found) but the original...
You took that way wrong, but that's okay. I wasn't knocking our capitalistic economy, just stating a fact. I saw other service members buy cars in Europe when I was stationed there. It wasn't that hard, but that was in the 70's.
I kind of THINK, with no knowledge that it is not just in comes a chip, pop it in and go. A lot depends on what the chip is, as it could be anything. I think it is more a board, or module. which is short the chip. To just pop a chip in would take a socket mounted on the board to accept it...
I think having the moon roof may come into play. The dealer may not wish the risk of leaks after repair. Also a vehicle with such low starting price even though this is not a base model can be totaled very quickly by insurance companies. In my state once totaled it must get titled as a...
A couple things to keep in mind.
It is Chinese New Years. Not much moving in China for about a week.
We are still experiencing trucking back logs, but much better than it was.
I'm sure these have at least one chip in them. How readily available it is, and will continue to be, could be...
Thank you Tim.
I have gotten 3 or 4 scheduling emails (XL Hybrid )starting with Scheduled for production 1/31. Then pushed out a week, the pulled in 2 weeks then pushed back to the original, then the last was for 2/7. But starting yesterday the Track My Order link only works on the original...
Plug 31 in where you have 24, and 24 in where you have 31, and you have my hybrid order. At least it is in the system, and getting some action. I'm one of the lucky ones that wasn't really in the market for a new vehicle, but a year or two out, and was very interested from the moment I heard...
That might explain the call I got from my dealer. I had a start date of 1/31. Then last week got a Ford email that changed it to 1/24, then this Thursday another email from Ford moving it back to 1/31. Later that day my salesman called and told me it was built. But his ETA is what I expected...
I agree. Capitalism working, but when supply and demand is manipulated, is it?
I think Ford is on a slippery slope. That $19,995 is an awesome attention getter, if not careful they would loose that appeal. But if the margin is there, and enough people want to buy a 35K Maverick, the entry...

Hello, new here. Received an email from Ford yesterday my order has moved from start 1/31 to a start of 1/24. Hope that sticks, or improves again. I have been lurking here for some time without commenting. Not going to join to read the article but I have been thinking about this for some...
