Constraints / Commodities For January 2022

[fordvideoguy]

Hi Tim! I know that you answered this question for another user, but do you know, as of February 2022, if there's any constraints on the XLT Luxury Package with DIBL? Thank you!

Ford did not separate out the XLT luxury package with the drop in liner from the one with the spray and liner.

Hi Tim, thanks for all you do here. I ordered on September 18, an XLT AWD Ecoboost with Luxury package, Co Pilot and Tow package. I also added soft tonneau cover, full size spare, mud flaps and mats. Oh and the passenger size swing tool box. After listening to your Video Thursday, nice haircut btw, I called my sales guy and asked him to drop the Full size spare, soft tonneau cover, mud flaps and tool box. He was empathetic that I would lose my spot and that my order is Unscheduled Clean and that there is nothing in it that would cause a delay….. I left it alone but wondering should I drop those extras. I’ve watched recent emails and most are Xlx, lux and co pilot and tow packages… without covers, flaps or full size spares. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

. Tim, could you tell me how many days, at the most, a vehicle spends in production,,,,,,lfrom start week date? thanks so much!

So based on that if 1000 Mavericks are built then 400 would be hybrid and 64 would be Lariat Lux.

So you mean there is a chance?

Cool.

Well, he's wrong about losing your spot. Only thing that would reset your order date would be changing the trim, motor, or body type. I would take the accessories off: bed cover, splash guards, Toolbox. All those could be added later. I'd leave the full size spare on.

Depends on how many extra accessories it will have on it. Since they don't have enough manpower to put on all the bed covers and bed liners and accessories, it could take up to one month. But right now they're all are sitting because of chip shortages.

Man, that little cover I ordered with my Mav better not be the constraining factor. I'll get aftermarket!

Since you posted this, what has changed? Still waiting on my Lariat Lux SIBL since August 9th! Any tips on getting an ETA on my order?
Thx

Thank you, kind sir…. Be well, stay safe and May the Ford be with you!

I've only been waiting for 4 weeks and I'm already, ready to throw in the towel..... These production delays are making me crazy.... I'm on this site every chance I can, and that's part of the problem. I'm not sure what to think.....

Here is the list for January on the Maverick:

Tonneau Cover Soft Folding - 5%
Tonneau Cover Hard Trifold - 3%
Tonneau Cover Soft Trifold - 3%
Bed Mat - 3%
Spray-in Bedliner - 3%
Bed Extender - 3%
Protective Fender Film - 3%
XLT Luxury Package with SIBL- 18%
Lariat Luxury Package - 16%
Hybrid - 40%

What do these numbers mean?

 

[Barracuda340]

5 weeks for me. Be patient.

Do you think many hybrids will be in dealer stock? I missed the order window and will have to wait for the window to open again. Any guesses on when does normal opens ordering windows?

Speak to Tim Bartz I believe he has one available.

O ye of little patience... I placed my order on 7/7 and just got a production date of April 25. With 4-6 weeks to deliver I will get it in June - an 11 month wait... Thanks, Joe.

I was in the exact same boat as you, trust me I know how frustrating it is. I've learned to just reset (lower) my expectations around timing and updates. The whole world is dealing with shortages of one type or another, and hopefully things can get better soon. Patience is key.
