Is it my imagination that FORD is building these faster or is it just because I'm able to see that people are actually getting their trucks because of websites dedicated to stuff like this???
I got my email, like everyone else.
I'm about ready to go get my deposit back.
It's not worth it to me.
I've started to see a few more Mavericks in parking lots now and really started realizing a couple of things.
1) The bed is about as big as one of the Kardashian's butts.
2) Second thoughts...
Since I placed my order back in Sept. for the Hybrid, I've had plenty of time to read up on EV's & Hybrids. What I've found is I really don't think the Hybrid is going to be good for me. I'm retar... 'er retired and don't drive much if I have a choice. Meaning, the battery won't get the proper...
"FORD CO-PILOT360™ TECHNOLOGY ● Auto LED High-Beam ● Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) (Pedestrian Detection, Forward Collision Warning, Dynamic Brake Support) ● Rear View Camera"

OK, first the bad news.
Unfortunately, I can't/won't be getting any dark colors. It's just too dusty, dirty and sprinklers everywhere use canal water that leaves spots.
So that leaves...
I guess you could call this plan B.
I don't have my order in. They won't talk to me until Aug. 16th (if all goes right). That means I probably won't get "a" truck until sometime in '23 - if it reflects the same schedule that you guys are getting.
So, reading lots of posts both here and on FB...
