Maybe Jim Farley will see this and hire a sky writing plane to spell out "supply chain crisis" for you over your house.
Is that what Ford told you? From Fords lips to your ears! You have no idea, what the hold up is. But thanks for the information Captain Obvious.

@Captain you cant compare ordering this to an edsel.
(fwiw i drove an edsel wagon all across the country in the 80's in my "PRO BMX" days...)
the edsel was same stuff but different box.
its more like ordering a falcon in 1960. something new and refreshing.

Yeah, I'm sure Ford intentionally delayed ALLLLL those orders from last summer as part of some conspiracy. You know, their stock was already up over 100% year over year, I'm sure they didn't want to make themselves look TOOOOOO successful so they said; hey, let's hold these orders to piss off this genius "Captain" on the maverick forums and not make our 2021 earnings report look as good as it could have. Do you even grocery shop? Not sure about you but I can't even buy half the things I normally do on any given week. Doesn't take a genius to realize that the supply chain is severely disrupted. What other conspiracies are you into? I'm curious.....

Hmmm maybe my conspiracy theories are about you bitching because I have different opinions then the all knowing “Fake Cowboy”. I’ll repeat for you slow learners… supply issues have nothing, not a single thing to do with communication. I understand supply issues, I also understand nasty sarcasm from some Johnny or in this case Joey come lately. Save your comments until Ford whispers relevant information into your ear.

Edsel.

Just the name even sucks balls.

"Mom, Dad, could you have maybe given me a better name? I am getting my ass kicked by the kids in kindergarten every day."
Edsel went to private school, the son of a multimillionaire. He could give two flips what the other kids said.

Ford refuses to speak, that’s their choice, but I believe we all would be much happier with an honest email explaining what they are doing too fix the problem. Simply saying “we are not taking any more orders doesn’t make anyone feel better, in fact it makes it worse.
If Ford did come out with a 100% factual email explaining everything people STILL wouldn't grasp the situation and continue to bitch. As far as not taking any more orders they're already 25-30% OVER the number they thought they would sell. They should continue to take orders and piss more people off?

Look bud, to me it's fairly obvious why Maverick deliveries are late. What difference is an email from Ford going to make? Is it going to make you feel warm and fuzzy inside? Honestly, if you need that from Ford maybe you should be buying a Mini Cooper instead. I hear they update buyers daily with inspirational quotes and then every person at the Mini dealership gives you a hug before delivering your Mini Cooper in a private "safe space".

Yes this documentary is about engineering the 2015 Mustang but it gives one a look at the MASSIVE amount of work to create a new model of a car. And that was without an abortion of a govt administration and a pandemic. It's out there for free, give it a watch.
