Chatted yesterday and while receiving a VIN to my surprise when called 7/11, lucky date numbers, have been bumped several time. Others have and others getting build days for week of Sept 5th. Perhaps the getting a VIN is different and the order date is being respected more at the factory with my...

Never, before getting within the 2 week window for the email have been bumped from scheduling week to scheduling week. Guess it's add 3 months to getting a VIN for July and early August folks. Thne we are within the 3 month window for MY23.

Seeing the following information caused me to do the Ford Chat and yes moved back another week. Don't see how it's possible, except they do not update it but get this, chat person said my scheduled delivery time is Sept 26- Oct 2nd. Did let her know that did not seem reasonable.

Do believe Ford cut off orders and could have produced them if supply issues did not worsen then they forecasted. In fact it seems like people are continuing to say things will get better in 6 months for at least 1.5 years and continues with easing in early 2023. We have all felt it and cheer...

Leaving out the fleet orders with a higher priority code and allocations yet to be filled in the next few weeks and a few additional weeks will guesstimate that 85% of orders will be filled and 15% will be rolled over. Tim @fordvideoguy can let us know but love his dedication and sharing...

Great you got scheduled but that 'B' stands for a 1 so your VIN means 102,xxx are committed to be produced for MY22.

Be interesting to see how the other 10 allocations go for October scheduling. So will there be a mini scheduling for November or perhaps cleanup week or two. Thanks Tim @fordvideoguy

Think it depends on your situation. Why get the Lariat, if you do 90% or more of your driving non highways. Seen posts on getting leather seats done at around a $500 cost and upgrade the audio after the fact. However if you do some highway mileage and like to take a long road trip, think the...

Your entitled to your views, but may have missed something, but did the bill make provisions to help people buy a vehicle of any kind? Sounds more of an political agenda and seems to be a tangent. Again you are entitled your views.

Thanks @MLowe05 and @HistoryGuy, my bad. Would still strongly suggest tot get it all in writing. That said, did not with my Maverick order but did research the dealer for their reputation.

This is going to sound coarse, but don't care about yesterday or people that will now fail to qualify. The America that I live in, those caps mean nothing. Yes, did commute 2 hours to a metro area where there were million dollar houses and use to go out for walks and look at all those houses and...

Peps, that is when Ford sends an email to let you know, but many call or chat and find out much early, about 2 months. Found out on July 11th when saw people with October orders getting schedule with a build week of 8/29, which at last check on Friday was 9/12. So expect that Ford email on 8.29...

Thank you TyPope. Hope you ordered the Lux package and give us feedback comparing the line centering driving to your Model Y. Sure you all heard this about Tesla. But they used Model 3 instead of e, because Ford over a century got a tradrmark on Model e as well as the Model t.

Yes, decided to keep the order and hope they can use my coupon code. The betwixt thing is balancing getting the best deal/discount and wanting the dealership to stay in business and thrive. Yes it is a good fair dealership as have nothing in writing, not even a copy of the order sheet but chose...

Yes, Believe @fordvideoguy mentioned that Ford will build 4k eco boost orders with no lux packages and same restrictions on stock orders if they run through all the retail orders. Think Tim will correct me if my understanding or paraphrasing is incorrect.

My feeling is a larger battery would be good for all. It's still a hybrid and would think it's likely to give you more electric miles. Imagine there is another forum for another Ford car that is a hybrid and people can post. Perhaps they have commented that even without a place to plug it in...

YES!!!!

You guys have influenced me. Will wait till Oct 10th or so and we will see the final outcome. Did change the thread title some.

Because it's a top line Lariat it will depreciate much more and after 3-4 years will be worth less than a new base model, which is a lose of over 12k. Not chump change, can't cancel since it's schedule and do like the idea of having it. Seems like once the Tremor and Black appearance surfaced...

This is a better link about the bill with final assembly in North America, hence Mexico, qualifies. https://www.cnbc.com/2022/08/10/inflation-reduction-act-extends-7500-tax-credit-for-electric-cars.html I'm retired so income caps are fun to look at and never made anywhere close to the income...
