I had my order confirmed on October 18. EB, AWD, FX4, 4K, Lariat, Lux (CP 360, spray in bedliner, etc.), hard roll up cover, floor trays, moon roof, HP red. Called Ford on Thursday (06-23-2022) last week and got a VIN, scheduled build week of August 15, and an estimated delivery date of September 23. All was confirmed by the dealer the next day. The build week will very likely move and the delivery estimate is a fantasy. But hey, it is better than some.

Not sure if this'll make you feel better or worse, but my Oct 14 order is in shipping now, but has very few features: XL, EcoBoost, 4k tow, in-cab 110V and literally nothing else. (No bedliner or Copilot360 either)

Mine has been at the "built awaiting shipment" status for two weeks now. The dealer told me last week I am supposed to have it around July 14th but I'm starting to doubt that timeline.

Alto Blue XLT AWD with Lux, btw

Edit: Ordered Oct. 28th

I highlighted why you have something like a 2% chance of being scheduled each week. Especially due to the bed cover and bed lights. While the bed lights have not been officially declared a constraint item, FordVideoGuy has on a few occasions mentioned he is pretty sure they are constrained based on what he has seen happen with orders at his dealership.

I don't want to sound harsh, but at this point in the game, if folks keep those items on their order, they are asking to be a 2023. I know you are stuck in priority 02, so you dont have a super easy way to drop any of those items, but it is possible to do if you want to put in the work with your dealer. FordVideoGuy has detailed the process to get out of priority 2 so the changes can happen, then get moved back to priority 2. Success in that process depends on the competency of your dealer though....

Case in point. Hot of the presses (last night).

My dealer rarely takes my calls or calls back. when he does answer its always "kinda busy right now ill get back to you". Of course he never gets back to me.

Disappointing, but not surprising. Priority 2 is sort of a blessing and a curse. Means Ford WANTS to schedule you, but they see all the constrained items when they look at your order each week and say NOPE!

You should be sitting in your dealer's office giving them a piece of your mind. They have not done you any favors. 30 minutes of reading this forum or any of the Facebook groups would tell you that you have items in your build that are constrained. Unless those are removed your build is very unlikely to be scheduled.
A good dealer would have contacted you and told you that. They should have given you the option to change your build if you wanted to get it scheduled.

So why is he still your dealer? Forget calling him. Go there. Sit down with them and ask them to explain in small words why your truck has not been scheduled. If they don't have an answer (which you already have) look into moving that order to another dealer.

Its so sad to me that these are the only threads that get replies on here now. The last communication was that half of the options you listed are supply restricted. This has not changed. Why would communicating the non change help you?

I work for a very large global company that makes appliances. I see shortageson a daily. however we never launch a new product if we dont have all the parts lined up and a 2nd and even 3rd supplier.

Ford communicating when my order will be built would help greatly.
Ford communicating how to change my order for a faster build would help greatly.

Ford doesnt know when your order will be built though. As for what changes would help quicken your build, those are well documented and dont need to be forwarded to each individual directly from ford. Thats between you and your dealer.
If you work for such a global company than you should know the following:
1. The maverick was not designed and launch was not planned under pandemic circumstances. Theres no way they could have accurately predicted how the fall out would have effected maverick supply chains

2. If fulfilling all orders is impossible, every company ever will chose to fulfill the most number of orders possible, because of profit, and how it looks on their yearly report. So your complicated order will continue to get leap frogged by simple orders over and over again until there is enough supply to justify. Think about it. They could spend all their stock on one truck… or spread them over 3 simpler trucks lol its an easy decision. Its an oversimplification of the process… but if your ‘i work for a global blah blah blah’ is true, then i shouldnt have to explain this to you.

its also been documented to death on this forum: if you want your order quick, drop your bed liner, tonneau, lux, lariat, copilot.🤷‍♂️

Oct 5th order, I had Copilot and XLT Lux but removed them a month ago in hopes that I could possibly get a car this year... With how things are looking I don't know if I will even get a 22YM. I have gotten no contact from my dealer since I removed the lux/copilot and I call ford/check my ford account weekly and get no good news. Honestly so frustrating
