August Update: 2022 Maverick Verified Orders, Hybrid Production Limit, Dealer Allocations, Constraints

[adawalli]

I believe the Customer Service at Ford told me the order, drivers license and deposit (if required) is with the order. No drivers license, no a verified order. Evidently dealers were trying to order as retail to get trucks.

Okay cool, thanks for the info, I'm glad to be included in those numbers then!

I was wondering if any of the dealers tried to order Mavs as retails, but in reality were ordering them for the dealership. Hmm

I placed an order (Lariat hybrid) with a dealership 4 hours away from me because the local dealers were all just a major turn-off. My order was taken and submitted with no deposit, no DL verification, nothing. The GM I was dealing with is a very good friend of my cousin so I'm assuming he let those little details slide, and he already made an offer on my trade-in without seeing it first.

Also, I had the drop-in bed liner selected because it was the cheapest option, but he offered me the spray-in for a comparable price and said they do it at the dealership, so hopefully that doesn't contribute to the delay.

All from his allocation, not all orders

I actually was told by my dealer that my driver’s license wasn’t necessary. I got an email confirmation the same day I reserved and ordered.

Sorry, it's mine.

Here's some important news and notes on the Maverick for August. As a reminder we are selling the Maverick at 3% below Invoice for any retail order.

• The Hybrid engine is limited to 35% of August/September/October production for the Maverick
  • The long-term production of 2022 model year will be a 40% mix of Hybrid
  • Currently 100% of hybrid engines will go to fulfill customer orders.
• Demand - There are currently 2 months of verified retail orders for Mavericks in the system.
• Dealer Allocation - Dealers will be allocated 60% retail and 40% stock orders. This will go until the pent up Retail orders are exhausted.
• Possible Constraints - Spray-in Bedliner is being demanded more often than anticipated. 70% of orders in the system are currently showing a spray in bedliner.

Ford announced on an earnings call that they have 80k orders. If that represents 2 months of retail sales orders, then Ford must be planning on building a half a million of these.

The announcement was 80,000 reservations, not orders. Most likely the actual orders are somewhere around 50,000 orders.

Richard, I'm sure they are closed. But the info you are requesting is in this thread on this forum
3% Below Invoice on Ford Maverick at Granger Ford

I believe Zach says send your orders to them in one post. Then there is another post where Zach gives another name and email address for orders. But I'm sure you'll get what you need here.

That would mean production of 300k. Toyota has never sold that many Tacomas in a year. On another note, I visited the Ford dealer in seaside today and they only have 8 cars and trucks on the lot.

Yes, that's is absolutely the case. They spoke of potentially adding it as a standalone option instead.

I ordered spray in on my XL. Had I known it’d be a delay, I’d have ordered it without and gone to line x. But whatever, I can wait.

You can call up your dealer and change it

This is probably what Ford planned for because of how the data came back from their focus groups. Generally early adopters will be a little richer on content ordered then dealer stock units down the road.


I am not quite sure yet. We'll find out this upcoming week or so. This week we scheduled out all but one from our allocation on retails. We have 1 more retail order to schedule this week which would be a scheduling clean up week.

The next round of scheduling will most likely be after the first round. So the 20th or possibly later depending on their timeline.

Hi Zach,
Thank you for sharing what you know. Would you mind clarifying what control you have over scheduling? I'm out in CA and got an order confirmation back in June, so I believe I've done all I can do, but my dealer acts like they don't have any influence. They make it sound like we (they and me) are both just waiting to hear from Ford. Your statements above make it sound like you're more active in the process.

Thanks in advance for shedding any light.

Cheers!
Andy
