LIL TRK? Yeah, but as my mother said, “ I may be small, but I fight dirty!” LIL TRK is loaded for a dump run. Thank you drop-in bed liner🤠

At inspection they failed it because the SECOND frame under my 01 Taco rusted clean thru. 91K. Two body shops told me “no way”. Got the name of a scrapper who offered my $600 sight unseen. Last thing I heard from the body shop was “don’t go over any railroad crossings”. Yeah, that bad. I put...

No problemo, senor! I am 80, my friends and family expect me to sit around staring at “love boat” reruns and looking for my long list shaker of salt. instead, I although I may soon be a charter member on the “600 club”, my truck is at the railhead and within two weeks I’ll be driving the most...

Yeah, well you saw how it went for Starship.

Sorry, I did not respond in the proper format. So shocked I froze… have had the 1000 yard stare for so so long!! Again; ⏰ Time email was received (include time zone!) 11:30 AM EST 📅 Your scheduled build week May 1, 2023 🔢(If you have it) the serial number part of your VIN.. XX out the last...

XLT Luxe Hybrid. 10/15/2021 yes 2021 - 517 days ago. Scheduled today for week of 5/1… with delays and transportation I will likely make the “Triple Nickel” club but I will be smiling when I do. Best of luck to all of you!!

17 months in, I am totally numbed by the experience. Hybrid XLT Luxe. Priority 2 at Ford, #1 (he tells me) at my dealer. But… NO allocation = NO schedule. Ford’s scheduling thru May? 12K Mavericks? ZZzzzzz SSDD. Same S#!+, Different Day.

As a potential member of the “Triple Nickel” club, I am surprised… by nothing. It’s all smoke and mirrors, guys. Like Tesla stock, you can project what you like but ultimately some trivial fact - or whim - will decide what goes up and what goes down… or in our cases, who gets built and who does...

Can I join? 10/15/21 Order, l also re-ordered 9/16/22. I had my hands on a dealer stock XL Ecoboost in '21 and let it slip awayyyyyy when I ordered the XLT Hybrid Luxe. (That noise you hear is me kicking myself.) Ah, shoulda coulda woulda. Will hit 500 next week while driving the wife's...

Not much point in me checking even. Since my dealer did not sell enough of the trucks he couldn't get from Ford last year, he has no allocations from Ford to build the truck he already sold me (16 months ago!) for this year. Somehow the logic in all that escapes me. Should've ordered from...

... But if my dealer has no allocations, (None, zip, zero, nada) and has no idea when or even if he'll get any, my 16 months of waiting has pretty much been crushed by your Abrams, huh? Under the "Bird in the hand" theory, a used Ridgeline is looking better and better.

Now I know what a "Pet Rock" felt like. 'Bout as much movement as my Mav Order. Best wishes to those who scored this week!

Yo, Bo... We're in the same category here in rural New Hampshire. My family is sick of the whole thing and I'm startin' to think they're all right. Tired of borrowing trucks to make the weekly dump run. Should call it quits and buy an old Taco but I got $600 worth of Maverick-specific...

Well. Hybrid? Trailer Hitch? Tonneau? Nope, at 452 days and still counting, although slower, I am convinced that dealer allocations and no other factors are my "constraint". Given that Ford told us all, over a year ago, that they were abandoning dealer allocations, I'll believe it when I...

Echo echo echo …. Same canned “update” here. Think I’ll hibernate ‘til late January as I don’t expect much over the holidays. That’ll be my third year in the order bank. I must be nuts, lemme look. Yep, glazed look, slack jowls, I guess I’m just too dumb to see the forest for the trees. Well...

"There's always hope." -- Capt. Edward Smith, RMS Titanic

Sung to “My Country Tis of Thee”… Ain’t got no truck for me Ain’t got no truck for me No truck for me There might be one or two Blue hybrid trucks for you But there’s no truck for me No-o truck for meeeeee 😡

Oct 6 of what year? :-| I am trying to figure out how many times 45 goes into 426 here. Let’s see, one little finger, two little… oh fuggedaboudit.

I like your logic Bob. Ya gotta hold out hope even in the worst of times. We need more optimists (he said with sadness).

With my apologies to Tennessee Ernie Ford; I went out one mornin’ when the sun didn’t shine, And I ordered up my Maverick and was feelin’ fine. I waited a year, and it was gettin’ me down, But the sales man tol’ me , “It’ll come aroun’”! Constraints and allocations are the name of the...
