Tried Land Rover once, Freelander, looked great, had all the bells and whistles. Picked it up as a Certified Used with 30,000 miles. Sure glad I got the Certified Extended Warranty. Dealer replaced the following all within 2 years: rear hatch window(faulty defroster), entire sunroof assembly...
Just talked with Ford Customer Service to find what my build date would be for my re-scheduled build week of 2/21. Previous build date was 2/10. Was told that they are no longer being given "build dates" to pass on to customers. Advised to contact dealer. Hmm
My '93 Explorer Sport 2dr had the seat launch forward when pulling the release lever with plenty of room to get in and out. I tried a 2dr Bronco at the Off-Roadeo and found it much less workable but I ordered a 2dr knowing the back seat won't be needed that much with both boys out on their own...
It depends on what universe you live in when defining "average Joe". The average U.S. household income in 2020 was $67,000. With starting base price of $44,990 for a Model 3 not too sure many of the average would find that in the budget.
I'm one of the newly bumped ones from week of 2/7 (build date 2/10) to this 2/21 build week. Received the "official" email last Saturday. Hopefully MAP reopens on Monday as previously mentioned. Would be interesting if I get a build date of 2/22/22 since my 1st order was placed 2/22/21.
Hybrids are a bit more realistic. Full EV is not sustainable for the entire fleet without a significant boost in electricity production along with the need for a much more robust plug-in network. In addition, the tax credit of $7,500 is what makes these more price competitive. Take the tax...
had a build week of 2/7, build date of 2/10. Called customer service last week and was informed that I was bumped to build week 2/21 also received the Saturday email stating rescheduled for build week of 2/21. Never got the WS since the shutdown started on 2/3 and the posting of WS were running...
I had a scheduled build date for 2/10. Nothing being produced this week, plant shut down. Rescheduled for week of 2/21. Check your email or call Ford Customer Service for update.
Even with a July 2020 "Reservation" the original projection for start of production was somewhere around April with "full" production not expected until June/July. With the incredible number of reservations Ford would have never met the July reservations for a 2021 model. Just do the math...
There were nearly 13,000 units built in January. That's more than 3,000 per week so highly likely there are 3-4,000 units stuck in the corral. That's in the neighborhood of $200 million worth of revenue not collected. No wonder the stock tanked 10% on Friday.
got the Ford email Saturday acknowledging build rescheduled from 2/10 to week of 2/21. Didn't get the window sticker last week like most since the plant was closed Thursday and no rush since MAP is closed at least thru 2/11.
after yesterday's disclosure to close the plant to figure out how to deal with the bad chips looks like you'll be moved back to 2/21 with the rest of the 2/7 group
