I knew it was a common issue but until seeing the result of this poll I had no idea how widespread it actually was. Fordās silence is very discouraging
Not sure why youāre getting so snarky. Do you really think āmultibillion dollarā companies are infallible? I could give you a laundry list of mind-blowing poor decisions multibillion dollar companies have made.
Ford themselves just wrote off $2.7B last year after walking away from autonomous...
Thanks for the info. I didnāt have that. I was just going by what what said in this thread and ādoubled productionā was the term used by one of the most reliable voices on the forum.
There are multiple people here stating that their built trucks are sitting in Mexico. Fordvideoguy confirmed that shipping is causing the bottleneck. Doubling production requires a huge investment by Ford. If Ford made that investment knowing that it would just create a bottleneck of completed...
Of course they donāt own tracks and trains but itās still their responsibility to get the vehicles to their destination. Doubling production without lining up shipping seems like a substantial logistical oversight. I would hope that there is a Plan B but fordvideoguy did say that this is...
You did mention that youāve been through 5 Canadian winters. I was just pointing out that āCanadian wintersā and their impacts on cars vary widely by region. Montreal and Toronto area roads see much more salt than Edmonton. The prairies see temps below -20C more often and the salt is useless at...
Ouch, thatās quite the oversight. I canāt imagine that they didnāt consider this. They need to get ahead of that quickly. No point doubling production if itās just to fill a gigantic parking lot in Hermosillo.
If your mind was already made up to get rid of your truck and buy a non-Ford product then why start this whole thread?

āI am not going to drive around 20 - 30 miles just to make the mileage look better. ā
Maybe not to make the mileage look better but to help get to the root of the problem and determine if the gas consumption is still bad under different circumstances.
Having more info will help if you...
