Yes, I think they rushed to move out dates 90 days to allow them time to better assess how to handle what was going to be a one month delay for most of us. Now we are happy with a 30 day delay.
Hahaha, not much I can do about it. I can walk away and spend $10k more for one off a dealer lot that isn't going to have the options I built or order something that is $15k more from Toyota or Nissan. And the Santa Cruz isn't even on my radar.
As long as the new car smell hasn't baked out...
Sure, at night when the sun isn't out. But for the most part they are going to sit in a parking lot 40 hours a week in the sun when someone is at work. I understand the concern but putting it in perspective makes me sleep better at night while my built vehicle sits out on the elements for 3...
Dealer got back to me. I legitimately feel bad for some of these guys (the "good" dealers that communicate well and don't mark up vehicles) because this is their livelihood. FWIW, it's not just the Maverick but the chip issue is across all models. My sales guy just had his SUV order pushed...

Problem is that I am likely in the same...
Yes, XLT FX4 AWD 4K went into production 1/4/22 with estimated delivery of 2/14 now pushed to 5/15.
Haven't bought a Ford in years, still might not be buying one.
Mine was moved 90 days and has already been in production for a month. XLT FX4 2.0 AWD 4K, NOT a hybrid
Anyone know how long the lead time is on. Nissan Frontier? I'm about done with this.
