I remember back in June or July one of Tim's vids had some Maverick sale stats that Ford released......about 20% of customer orders were not being fulfilled.....because of multiple orders, people just placed an order and weren't serious buyers or financially unqualified buyers.....or...
2 to 3 months for a eco boost maybe, 6 to 7 for a hybrid....I wouldn't count on that, there are hybrid orders that are 15 months old and still waiting for a build date....
That's my concern also, living on the west coast, I'm an early Sept. order.....don't want to have 50,000 trucks ahead me because 3 time zones get to place orders before us.
I understand that.......but the Ford motor co. decides which trucks to build, they could have told dealers that that orders with a $1000 dollar deposit or more will get built first....pass that on to your customers placing orders.......again lose the allocation system and build trucks for real...
I agree Ford should have required at least a $1000 dollars down to place an order, that would have eliminated all the unqualified / not serious buyers and almost all of the multiple orders being placed.....currently 20% of the trucks being built are ending up as dealer stock units because of...
The info I need from Ford is how many f--k!ng trucks are on back order...... with that info we could figure out how many mavericks will be moved to MY23
I've been saying that for months, something going on with the hybrid option that Ford's isn't telling us about........it doesn't require more...
I'm sitting in my car while my wife is getting her hair cut......thinking I've seen at least a dozen Mavericks in the wild.....and i look up and a pizza delivery guy drives by in a cactus grey xl.
The brand manager doesn't know how many orders there are, he's just guessing like the rest of us...... that's a corporate level secret, if we knew that number, we could quickly do the math and calculate how many mavericks WONT get built.
Good info thank you, you mentioned that dealers are given a list of customers to contact... my dealer has communicated with me pretty well, but i haven't been contacted about removing the lux package or 360cp is their silence a good thing or not. ?....late Aug. hybrid order here.
So Ford wants me to drop the packages that I wanted? Because Ford's been so up front and honest with me it's the least I could do, to help them build more trucks and improve their bottom line.......yeah I don't think so.......I ordered what I want if Ford can't deliver so be it, ordered 7...
