I noticed "fleet" in the scheduling notes. Let's hope it is just the scraps as EB orders could be getting limited after today (allocations pending, of course). Highest VIN beforehand: 303XX Highest VIN Reported: 563XX Please copy & paste the bullets below & provide the following info when you...

I honestly think Ford will not do two full months of scheduling today. So, this might be wave 1. However, next Thursday is Thanksgiving. So then again, maybe... Highest VIN beforehand: 30,3XX Highest VIN Reported: XXXXX Please copy & paste the bullets below & provide the following info when...

Note: not a direct competitor to Maverick, but an indication of where market is heading. Only just announced so still a lot of questions. Full Electric Ram with gas motor that only charges the battery. This, honestly, is likely the best option for truck users. 14,000lbs tow 130 kW generator 92...

Ford notice indicates it will be a Lariat day. Ford's actual scheduling software appears to be eyeballing XLs and XLTs as well. We'll see shortly. Highest VIN beforehand: 19,9XX Highest VIN Reported: 303XX Please copy & paste the bullets below & provide the following info when you announce...

Ford's website has gotten a little more useful. Those basic status's haven't been on this page before.

Ford appears set to schedule some more this week. Though, it'll be interesting to see if many do given Ford scheduled >10,200 last week. Highest VIN beforehand: 19,300 Highest VIN Reported: TBD Please copy & paste the bullets below & provide the following info when you announce that you...

For some non-strike talk.... Wife and I were driving to the local airbase to get groceries when I needed to get up to speed on the interstate. I decided to put it in sports mode before heading out and my wife was amazed how much acceleration the 2.0L with AWD has. Especially since we were...

Will be scheduling for November. Ford has announced no constraints beyond the known items. Will be interesting to see if Ford tempers plans to account for any possible strike impact. Highest VIN beforehand: 8,700 Highest VIN Reported: 18,900 Please copy & paste the bullets below & provide the...

I finally used my Maverick as a truck today. 18.5 MPG on the interstate with ACC set to 69 MPH. Roughly 2,000 pounds.

It’s that time of year again. People who have rollover orders get upset that someone with a new order was scheduled ahead of them. But why did that happen? Below is an oversimplified explanation of allocations. I note that I do not work for Ford. The devil is in the details, but this should...

Since @theway-yay-ting hasn't done it yet (preferably someone with a MY24 order could resume these). Please copy & paste the bullets below & provide the following info when you announce that you received your email: ⏰ Time email was received (include time zone!) 📅 Your scheduled build week...

After naming the Escape "Eskapay" because of how Dory pronounced it in Finding Nemo, I decided the name the Explorer "Dory" because I'm a dad and "Dory the Explorer" made me chuckle. Well, we accidentally hit a theme. So, the Maverick is now "Bruce" and I finally got a decal for its namesake:

tl;dr: If you want your MY24 order scheduled, drop the constraints and make sure your dealer has enough allocations. <nerd> 95XXX is the highest VIN so far. That means Ford scheduled 95,000+ Mavericks. That is an average of 9,500 Mavericks per month since December. Only twice during MY22 did...

@fordvideoguy mentioned last night that Ford is looking for feedback on the SecuriCode Keyless-Entry Keypad removal from the Maverick. Personally, I think it is a mistake. I have used the function multiple times with the Escape, especially when kayaking or hiking. It allows me to leave not only...

According to Tim, Ford will be scheduling through the end of model year when they do scheduling in July. Hitch and hybrid availability will be improved. Hopefully they will do scheduling week of July 10, which would mean you will know you are getting one before order banks open. My advice: If...

So, I was in the group that got a delayed email after my truck went into production two weeks ago. A status it is still in while I see trucks after it being shipped. I could call the dealership, but my regularly scheduled Explorer pester isn't until Friday. I have not been overly concerned as...

Plant topped 26,000 total units overall with Bronco Sport included. Maverick May 2023 Sales & Production Figures Maverick May Sales: 6,965 Sales (YTD): 35,026 vehicles. May sales represent a 5.8% increase from April. Maverick May Production: 11,061 vehicles. Production (YTD): 43,810...

Tim mentioned in his stream that the Maverick hybrids will move up to 50% of builds coming out of the factory starting July. He also mentioned that his estimated allocations to the end of year are not reflecting the announced July ramp up. While the 50% is an important milestone, the lack of...

Tires. My Escape needs new tires but after looking at KBB this morning, trading it in for the Maverick is a no brainer (I'm going to net ~$5,000). So, how much will the tires hurt if I don't replace them ahead of time? Will the dealer hit me for just the cost of the tires meaning my net out of...

I'm going to just group everything into this thread. I'll update it as there is new information but this will document my process so that others who are at other stages can compare to their own. I make no promises we have similar experiences on anything listed. Don't expect this to change often...
