Ordered 10/1/21, again 9/21/22, again 7/23. Got vin today(from marketing team not dealer). Sched week 9-25(Iconic Silver Hybrid XL hitch/360cp). Waiting on supervisor from marketing to call re: transition offer.
I'm holding out to see what transpires. I've been in regular contact with marketing and have a case #. Dealer is small town rural and not so much in the know. I'll update if I receive any helpful info.
I've had my hybrid xl (cp360/hitch) on order since 10/1/21. Dealer reordered for the 23. Now I've reordered same for 24. Had to change color due to XL limited colors. Dealer has copy of DL but I didn't have to sign. My purchase of the 23 (if built) or the 24 is contingent on Ford's private...
Ford shouldn't expect customers to be ok with rigged parts. I picked up my first order last month (hybrid) and have identical one that is being rolled to 23. Ford needs to address Mav issues. I thought the Mav was a great idea and it checks a lot of boxes but only if it is well built/reliable.
Answering your question, no. I have an XL hybrid cp360 and hitch. I am waiting on another (identical). I have no need to argue or justify my choice. The Hybrid XL simply met my needs. Everyone already has the factual info re: mpg, power, price, and warranty. Everything else is pretty much just...
Ford chat, phone contact, email, and dealer all provided diff info regarding status. I picked mine up on Aug 3rd. Ford recall center/Fordpass shows engine fire recall not complete (but it has clearly been done). Dealer and Ford recall center don't know when or who. They say I should bring it...
Maybe others will reread and realize you made what seems to be an evidenced based assessment of the current market and simply questioned Ford's insight/future plan. I'm a big proponent of Truth vs opinion and I don't see any disputing the fact/s you noted.
With respect to the Op, I'm sure Ford evaluated and researched things I'm completely oblivious to. Your understanding/knowledge of the process is appreciated. In line with your above explanation-the demand is my current dilemma. As I said, I'm satisfied with my 22k ish price and wouldn't choose...
When I first read this there were like 3 posts. 6 pages later I'm questioning my intelligence. FWIW, I am a college educated ret mil veteran but I ain't no genius. I thought Ford simply built a truck for less thus sold it for less. Ain't that reasonable?
Built week of 7-4, shipping presently. No recall for my vin on Ford.com, NHSTA, or Ford Pass app.. Was there a change/Mod to those built before/after the recall dates?
Mine built/shipped this week. My vin shows no recall-also checked Ford Pass. Guessing you checked your vin also. Myself and others reported going in-out of production in the first week of June. Wonder if this was possible reason.
Fwiw-Mid aged retired veteran. Two hybrid XLs cp360 and hitch. Sep 22nd order is in production since Monday(for the second time-was in production 6-2 for a few days then went back to in order processing). Oct 1st order still in order processing. No email re: rollover to 23. FMC rep said Oct 1st...
I appreciate the Ops review as any honest opinions/experiences provide insight. I'm a mid aged retired veteran and remain optimistically hopeful. I've got two hybrid XLs ordered. With the price and mpg I'm not expecting any remorse.
