SOMETHINGS GOING ON...Ive gone from produced and awaiting chip eta Dec 31, to RELEASED , eta Oct 30 but still stating Held for Chip????...progress ....? we shall see..
similar boat...ordered Feb 1st...eta bounced all over the place from July to October and now Dec 24...thats 11 months...its been produced already...now its just being slow cooked outside awaiting a chip...grrrrr
crazy...ordered mine Feb 1st...Carbonized Grey with Grey top Badlands loaded. It was built about a month ago and is sitting baking in the sun in Hermisillo awaiting a chip. Eta was bumped to Oct 31....that was recently changed to Dec 24th!!!! Thats a total of basically 11 months from time of...
open the PDF and take a REALLY close look...now youre just being argumentative...I stated initially theres been a price increase from my first order Feb 1 2021 to the current 2022s is approx. 1400 dollars...PDF shows it right there...you want to continue arguing welcome to a party of one. Orig...
open the PDF...right there...what you are stating is NOT fact...is from a 3rd party and is inaccurate. Case closed. Take your "sources" with a grain of salt...not like I do this for a living or anything....ahem. ( Don't hold that against me...lol )...and seriously...youre utilizing a Magazine...
...Ill scan and send ...you can apologize for arguing about something you are basing redundant info on later...I will remind you, I work at a dealer and do a large percentage of the ordering here....your thread doesn't take into account through the year price changes, my price level started at...
Dougula, if you would like me to scan and send both the DORAS Im happy to...I will repeat...Base MSRP 2021 order Feb 1st, Price level 130 $32820, 2022 order plced yesterday Price level 215 base MSRP $33935. Your link doesn't provide up to date OR prior price level increases...they went from 130...
the base MSRP ( before any options )on a Badlands has literally gone from ( original order ) $ 32820 to $ $33935 plus theres been some increase on certain options..( Co pilot Assist has gone up $100, Trailer tow from $445 to $490 ) all adds up...
at the time ( remember...Feb 1 ) nothing outrageous...just a loaded Badlands. I understand there may have been a Sunroof shortage ( tell the truth I probably may have deleted that if I could have...which can be done for 2022 ) Initial delivery was 8 weeks...and then the bumps started. And now...
hope this doesn't deflate anyone too much but this is crazy. Ordered my B Sport Feb1...grey Badlands....finally got built about 3 weeks ago...now its sitting in Hermosillo ( probably under blazing sun ) waiting for a chip....ETA just got bumped from Oct 31st to December 24...I put in a backup...
I feel your pain...My Badlands was ordered Feb1. Car was built last week...now its sitting outside fending off hot Mexcian sunlight waiting for a damn chip....eta Oct 31!...Ive had rims and Tires in our Parts Dept for 2 months!...and FWIW I literally work at a Ford Dealership!
Not all of them...a major supplier was located in Japan...and they had a factory burn down. Also, in reaction to covid, chip suppliers thought the Car business would be dead in the water and were funneling said chips to Phone/ TV/ appliance manufacturers....welcome to the Domino effect...
you missed the point...those cars sitting are either the result of being unpopular...OR the Dealer is gouging….Id say the former....Ford had a BUNCH of Escapes on Dealers lots for a while, basically because the car wasnt too popular (barring Hybrids )...that supply has now become depleted...
no keyboard warrior at all...apologies if thats how you interpreted it, you're entitled to your opinion...just asking exactly what your'e basing it on...and you didnt answer the question...compared to what exactly?...remember they start under $29k and 4 wheel drive is std..
now ask yourself why Hyundai and Kia have so many units of certain models, just sitting ( some youll find will be scarce...Telluride for instance ) ....people dont buy crap just because its available....or if they are outrageously marked up....ahem. We usually carry 500 vehicles we are down to...
Again...absolute rubbish....you have completely lost sight of what the vehicle compares to in its segment, its capabilities and popularity...the only way that will decline will be time and if Ford overbuilds them...theres several articles documenting their turn time once they hit lots. No doubt...
