Except if they create AND build they get all the profit and don’t need us at all except as consumers! Remember the Japanese auto industry in 1961, then in 1966, then the 1989 Lexus LS400- the million mile car?
Location not that relevant as he can order and deliver anywhere in US but his dealership is in Roseburg, OR and he will be remote located part time north of Nashville. TN.
I have had State Farm in both AZ and OR and always carry (even on old vehicles). Comprehensive with zero deductible for glass. Have had windshields and other windows replaced in both states always at zero cost to me. But on cars old enough to use the rubber gasket instead of glue in the cost of...
My local salesman Tom Gray at Lithia Ford does retail and fleet sales and is going partially remote but is able to take MSRP orders from anywhere in US AND have it delivered to you also anywhere in US. His cell is 541 778-3950. Keep (and USE) his number if you have any doubt about satisfaction...
In many US states front side windows can be tinted to 35% which is a lighter tint with people still visible from outside but still heat reducing from summer sun. Might be the way to go. Any tint shop will know about that.
Your dealer can look up where it is for you and if it is still traveling can give you the rail car ID. Search this forum for how to then use the rail car ID with a phone call to either the Eastern or Western US carrier to trace that rail at. (My Mav was already at end of its rail trip when I...
When I ordered I told the salesman I hoped to get it by my birthday in 8 1/2 months. That is June 2nd so it looks like I’ll only miss by a few days, if all goes as scheduled. Still shows over 2 weeks to get the 5 hours from Portland to my dealer. No complaint on my part, except for having to...
Ordered 9-17-22,changed from hybrid to EB 12-20-22, scheduled March for 5-8-23 week production. Built 5-12, shipped 5-13, shows as in Portland, OR 5-20, scheduled for dealer arrival Roseburg 6-6. Delivery a couple of days later, per dealer. Wish me luck. But the train seems to only have taken a...
Your written purchase order is not an “agreement”. It is a CONTRACT. The price is part of it- possibly subject to relatively minor manufacturer price increases if not specified as a fixed price, but failure to sell at the contracted price with that possible exception is a breach of contract and...
My Ford dealer told me mid-December when I switched my Sept 17, 2022 order to EB from hybrid XLT that he estimated I improved my odds of getting a Mav by about 70%. He said almost every order from his dealership was for a hybrid. My order code changed from 19 to 11 about a week before receiving...
As a matter of info that MIGHT be helpful, after seeing how oversold the hybrid was compared to forecast production capacity, ion Dec 12, 2022 I changed my Sept 17 order from hybrid to ecoboost. I decided I would rather have that than no Maverick at all. On March 15th I checked with dealer and...
