  1. Mavericks Accumulating At Dealers

    In theory, I like the idea of negotiating my trade. The problem is that I'm not sure my dealer would accept my current vehicle. 26 years old, 200k+ miles, check engine light, no horn, no airbag, illegal exhaust, no radio, rusted frame, rusted suspension (she sounds like a creaky mattress,)...
  2. What specifically makes the hybrids more difficult to manufacture?

    Rura Penthe. While the dilithium mines were staffed with prisoners, Ford leased the regular lithium mines and have been using the 3,000 employees they laid off from the ICE division starting in August.
  3. Hadn't received a private offer yet. Called. BOOM. I HAVE A VIN!!!!

    Make absolutely sure that you have a VIN. Take the number that the customer service representative gave you and enter it here. https://shop.ford.com/vehicleordertracking#/ I was in the situation where they never emailed me notification, I called the service line regularly, and they told me I...
  4. Number of times to call Customer Service before getting coupon

    He has plenty of inventory on the lot. And all of them marked up thousands of dollars over MSRP.
  5. Number of times to call Customer Service before getting coupon

    Generally, I have been the one thoroughly educating my salesperson about the Maverick, be it the ordering process, memos that should have gone out to his dealership, the ever-shifting dates for order banks reopening, etc. He's a likeable enough fellow, and I do not hold his lack of information...
  6. Number of times to call Customer Service before getting coupon

    I have thus far contacted Ford Customer service line 4 times in the last three months and asked about the $100 coupon code emailed for having waited since October with no communications from Ford. They either tell me there are no coupons on my order or have no idea what I am talking about. How...
  7. Interesting Facebook Post - MY22 Scheduling Complete?

    Customer service reps about a month ago had said that no more hybrid mavericks would be scheduled. I'm using the whole salt shaker.
  8. Can Ford Actually Build All These MY22 Mavericks?

    It is possible that none of those pre-production trucks were completed until March. Theoretically, Ford can keep producing the '22 model year until February 28.
  9. Construction Workers Needed

    I am operating under the assumption that my 2022 Maverick (ordered October 21) will not be built. I am at peace with this. I am also operating under the assumption that Ford will not be able to complete my replacement orders for 2023 and 2024 either, because Ford will still be short...
  10. Anybody pick out a name for your truck?

    If Ford ever decides they would like to build me a truck (not holding my breath at it actually happening,) it will be called "Blue Truck." This will conveniently distinguish it from my existing '97 F-150, which is named "Green Truck."
  11. Does my 22 automatically roll to a 23?

    What power does a customer have that could prevent a dealer from cancelling an order? If a dealer wants to cancel your order to make you pay more toward a new '23 order, they are going to cancel your order regardless of what you tell them.
  12. A Story, as told by Ronald Reagan

    “I’ve been collecting stories that are told in the Soviet Union, by their people, among themselves, which reveal they’ve got a great sense of humour but they’ve also got a pretty cynical attitude toward their system… I didn’t tell this one to Gorbachev. You know there’s a ten year delay in the...
  13. Has anyone downsized to a Maverick and finding the bed too small?

    I, too, plan to use mine as a ski vehicle. I will attach two 2"x12" planks to either side, and send this bad boy down the side of the mountain. Fortune favors the bold!
  14. Has anyone downsized to a Maverick and finding the bed too small?

    I currently have a 6' bed in my F-150 and it is *way* more space than I can actually use. I look forward to my bed being a foot and a half shorter if Ford ever gets around to building a Maverick for me.
  15. Maverick Wait Vs. Uber Costs

    If I were to seek an alternative vehicle, does anyone have any recommendations on what to get or how to find it?
  16. Maverick Wait Vs. Uber Costs

    No build date, because that XLT luxury package is defined as "constrained," last time I checked.
  17. Maverick Wait Vs. Uber Costs

    XLT with XLT Luxury Package order placed 10/22/21. I have been driving around my historic-tagged '97 F-150 as my commuter vehicle. As of today, however, it has been in the shop for 8 days and its future looks increasingly bleak. I have spent $240 this week getting back and forth to work by...
  18. Ford's Shifting Production Policy...

    A Babel fish is nearly as good. Although by effectively removing all barriers to communication between different races and cultures, it has caused more and bloodier wars than anything else in the history of creation.
  19. 2022 Maverick Final Scheduling Cut Off Date = August 4

    Since we have to submit our 23 MY as a new ROVP, how on Earth would Ford know who already had an existing 22 MY order (and what was on that order) to put them at the front of the line? What if a person moves? What if a person marries and changes names?
