Does the hitch really require a trip to mod shop? Does anyone have confirmation from Ford on this?

Market capitalization is a more fair comparison. These companies have the capital to invest in their respective business (customer/product/service) value matrix. Market Capitalization (9/22/22): Dominoes $11.57 Billion Fedex $39.2 Billion UPS $146 Billion Amazon $1.1 Trillion Ford $51.6...

Definitely not an arguing type of guy. The counterpoint is that companies like Amazon, Target, and even Domino's raised the bar for how customers buy, pay for, and await products. Domino's can sure tell me the status of my $9.00 pizza pretty accurately. UPS wins the award for telling me when I...

Thanks for all your do for the B6G community. Since I'm stuck in production purgatory, I've been wearing out the tracker for the last serval days, so the least I could do is send over some beer money for your troubles!

What was your build?

Today marks exactly two years (730 Days) since I placed my reservation. I now sit here in production purgatory along with half of my build week. News of 40k units on parts hold in Q3 is mind-blowing. Ford closed the Maverick Order banks in five days. They sold the entire year's allocation in...

Put this idea and feedback around the prototyping table. Solving what seems to be a major blackout section to accommodate the wiper motor right in the sight line would be a huge win. It's like how Ford figured out how to move the mirrors to the chassis and off the door and how to do frameless...

I agree, and I have never contacted Ford chat or the hotline. I'm a pretty patient guy, and I don't need the Bronco now like I did two years ago when I reserved one. However, this is a major purchase, and there is almost nonexistent communication between the seller (Ford or Dealer) and the...

Another day and still stuck in production. Back to looking at wheels and exhaust. The silence about the hold up on current builds is deafening. I don't want to be the 2022 dirt mountain turned ice mountain crew. Rant over, Carry on.

Ha, I was in the same boat and was so glad I had the bike and boat to get through an otherwise boring shut down world during COVID. Truth is, my H-D Night Rod Special (10th anniversary) Was not accumulating enough miles in the last year due to myriad of reasons. The most important, a lingering...

Taking a stroll through our build week spreadsheet, I don't see any single model, package, tow, hard vs. soft, rail vs. convoy that's not been moved to built status. I wonder how you win the "built" lottery? I guess the data set is too small to identify any trends. Vehicles are a myriad of...

I’m gonna stroll through the last two weeks build threads and check for trends on the blend to built dates. This may just be ford completing the highest margin units first. Hearing a base Sas from August not being complete but then seeing an Everglades sail through is a bit concerning. It scary...

Many manufacturers realized the threat of running a lean just in time manufacturing practice during the pandemic. It’s hard to shift from JIT when you are already in the weeds. I’m sure suppliers are promising parts and between delays on the manufacturer end or the shipping they aren’t being...

sorry To hear. It’s an emotional ride for sure! Some from my build week did ship and they were also loaded badlands with Lux. I think SAS wheels were a supplier constraint. I’m not a SAS build and even stayed soft tool just to keep moving. As a boat owner, I do need the trailer Tow package from...

Explains the likely reason I blended 9/13 and stuck in production a week later. Modules are live and it has a tear tag. Dang. I guess it’s off to leaf peeper mountain. I Just sold my motorcycle today to clear the Broncos stable space. my friends and family think I’m crazy for remaining this...

I put AuxBeam LED in my Chevrolet Silverado. Low/High/Turn in the front housing. quality product, significant improvement. Fair price.

I think we are "in production" until the receiving dealer pays the invoice and Ford receives the wire. The next link in the chain is "shipped" and who ships something to someone that hasn't paid? Just speculation, but there is nothing "random" about assembly line database tracking. Each check...

I'm a 9/13 in Production as well, and sort of seem to be stuck there as well. I have a tear tag and modules live but frozen for the last 48 hours.

I’m in Maryland, My window sticker shows as Convoy. Go through some previous build week threads. We have been tracking this for a bit. Once a window sticker is generated it shows the planned method of transport.

My Original AMB MY21 converted to black until I sat down with the dealer and fixed all the sins that occur on a model year roll over. I assume MAP only has one paint line that can do tri coat paint so Azure probabaly bumped the Orange (yellow) out. I didn’t see the CO with the extra $ since it...
