Same boat here, never ordered a new vehicle. I've also never owned a Ford. Ordered 7/31/21, finally got my built email 9/15/22. Shipped email came 4 days later (9/19/22) with an expected delivery date of 10/10 - 10/16. I'm still without my truck. No word from dealer. Still waiting.... we're almost there though. I was wondering, are people who are getting there trucks this late still getting the FITS packages? I was assuming Ford may have just forgotten about us since we're coming up on the one year anniversary of that email.
I orders a basic XLT 1 day before you - July 30, 2021 received at Penn Holstat Ford on Jan 14, 2022 - have put 6,000 on it and you’re still waiting. It is frustrating for you but I think you will be glad you waited.

Glad you got yours so quickly. I wondered if mine took so long because I ordered from what I thought was a high volume dealer. Is your dealer pretty large? I’m really excited to get mine. Reached out today to ford chat and got an updated 10/21-10/27 delivery date.

If that worked for you, that's what you should do. Custom orders require patience. In my case it was worth it. YMMV.
We had to wait three months for our RAV4. I thought that was a long time.

At least yours has been shipped. I ordered 10/30/21. It was built 8/31/22 and still hasn't shipped. I live in Florida too.
have you been shipped yet?? I just noticed you were built same day as mine and mine has been awaiting shipping ever since. Until last saturday anyway it did actually ship. Tim the ford video guy said it was cause of airbag recall.

Patience is indeed a virtue. Ordered my xlt hybrid in July 2021. After nearly 15 months, it was delivered on 10/07. On 10/10, the power steering failed along with several other functions (traction control, hill hold, etc.). Been in the dealer’s shop since with no idea when replacement parts will arrive. It was a good 3 days. Back to waiting AGAIN!
Wow that was a long wait and now your waiting again. Wheres the Ford quality ?? Good luck.

Not sure how toyota does it but I don't think it's a direct factory order. I agree that 90 days would be the ideal but with the current supply chain issues it's hard to see how they can do factory orders in that time frame.

I ordered my XLT Hybrid Oct 29th of 2021. It was finally built the middle of Sept. 2022 and shipped fairly quickly. By rail it went from Mexico to Illinois(?). I live in South Georgia. From there, it went to Jacksonville Fl. by rail. Now for the last two weeks, it has been sitting in Jacksonville waiting for a transport.
This is the first new vehicle that I have ordered. So I have no prior experience to look back on. But this has been one process that I never intend to repeat. My hope is that the Maverick will prove to be well worth the wait. If I ever get it.
At some point you will get it. That's why they charge $1495 for shipping. When people stop you to ask about your truck, tell them all the places your truck went on vacation before finally arriving for it's first day of work!

It was pre-Covid. First model year of a complete redesign, though.

I believe many of current Toyota USA models are actually built in USA, and don't have to deal with issues getting parts to, and shipping from Mexico. Another thing is Toyota had stocked up on (or had early contracts for) many of the parts for the USA models that were established already. Saw multiple stories about Toyota not being affected as much as others from supply chain delays because of that. It took about 3 months for Toyota to deliver a new 4Runner my neighbor purchased last year.

So did you place a special order? How did ordering work with toyota vs ford?

Glad you got yours so quickly. I wondered if mine took so long because I ordered from what I thought was a high volume dealer. Is your dealer pretty large? I’m really excited to get mine. Reached out today to ford chat and got an updated 10/21-10/27 delivery date.
My dealer was a small dealer, Chapman Holstram, Pennsylvania. At least small in physical size...but have two Ford dealer locations. Claimed to have sold over 2,000 Mavericks 2022, had delivered 60 or 70 when I picked up mine. As I plan to order another Maverick next year...I'll most likely order from them again. No issues and no complaints. I don't think size matters much...my local Ford dealer is HUGE...must be couple of hundred employees and have only claim to have only sold a few dozens. Margin has to be pretty small comparted to F150, Lightings and Mustangs...so some dealers don't push Mavericks since they are so hard to get.
