Of note, he did not ask about re-selling. He asked if a friend could buy his order instead. Pretty much crosses the line all around.

I drooled over these trucks. That fully loaded Lariat is really nice! ACC a very desirable feature. Will for sure get another one in a couple years, hopefully a plug in hybrid Lariat with the two 360 packages (cactus grey please. Put me down).

In my thinking, the "no re-selling" protects not only the dealer and Ford, it also protects the buyer. Many threads on MTC regarding unscrupulous dealers that have raised the price in order to profit off a buyer, or shift the truck to someone else if the new price isn't accepted. The consumer...

It is much more complex than simple constraints. Perhaps more important is your dealer's allocation. A dealer that loaded up hundreds of hybrid orders without allocations to cover is a bad situation.

This is what makes most sense, given the limitations on space. Also, figuring out how to bring a driveshaft off the CVT to the rear...much more expensive and challenging than a simple additional battery with a replacement electric motor rear axle. The rear pumpkin from the EB can be easily...

how many scheduled but cancelled '22 hybrids are there? I was thinking less than 5,000ish...due to a capacity of about 8,000 units and one month to build those VIN trucks. So if that is true, it's not such a big deal. I expect there were about the same or less '22 hybrids that were rolled...

ahhh sweet. I'm either getting one soon or not long after. That means of the 80 or so rollovers they had, about 40left to go.

None of the above. It is a 1966 Ford Econoline Pickup. Likely grandfathered in under old laws. The other '66 I own is an ex PG&E truck, and commercial. It's non-op right now; registration renewal is $44 plus all the other etc's to bring it to $113.

You are flat out wrong. I own 3, one is commercial because it is ex PG&E; one is commercial because it is 1 ton flatbed; the third is the same Ford pickup as the ex PG&E truck, and it is not commercial. Maverick light duty pickup trucks might be commercial plated if they were sold for...

Yep, it has to do with many factors such as GVW, pickup bed vs flatbed or utility bed, and whether the vehicle is used for commercial hire etc. I own an ex PG&E truck and it was commercial plated due to the original owner. I also own a flatbed 1ton GMC and it is also commercial, but not even...

Commericial vehicle? From where do you get your info?

I saw one response that was a Granger order. Over on the scheduling thread, a few days back.

I just got the same.

Good to see you watching this thread, Ford. While cost experience varies quite a bit, I can say for sure that my 2013 Nissan LEAF has been tons cheaper than an ICE. But not just in dollar terms, it has been much cheaper in time utilization. After 115,000 miles, we have saved tremendous time...

congrats!

? I believe the point of Granger not accepting new 2023 orders was to allow the 80 or so 2022 rollovers to be delivered. And I believe they already had 40 2023 allocations plus 4 new ones credited. This intel was explained by Zach. Seems to me that if Ford can get their act together, there...

love the old trucks. Mine a '66 Econoline pickup, about 2800lbs with the 240 inline six. Problem with those old light weight trucks, they get real squirrely over 60mph. Suspension/brakes/gearing all limiting. Yea, a maverick for sure a nice and safe truck for the highway.

No, they will build the truck and set it aside to finish up ASAP. They won't be running 22 and 23 VIN trucks at the same time. That doesn't mean it will get delivered by MY, but it won't be built mixed up on the line with different MY's.

No. They will finish 2022 VINS before they move on to 2023's. Assigned VINS means they have the parts and will build them. Lots of reasons for slowdowns right now. Recalls, etc. Many reasons why the '23 scheduling is being pushed out. There won't be a mix up. The Line is shut down for a...

The date by which no further VINS were assigned was mid-September. All vehicles with VINS will be build in 2022, regardless of how long that takes. Thus the pushing out of 2023 scheduling.
