That's not bad at all, that's a start in the practical direction

So I’m wondering when Ford will begin getting better supply of chips and ramp up production of Ranger and Everest.
Ford has plenty of orders plus enough buyers wanting walk in sales, something has to happen soon surely… |

Very soon. The last quarter of the year will see them flying out the door.

All the OE's are in the same boat waiting on chips/harness's etcetc gonna be a while yet till flow gets back to a new kind of normal.
Discussing with a BM employee I know yesterday, 7Series for eg, alot of components we're made guess where, Ukraine, how many other OE's we're sourcing there as well. He quoted up to 18mths wait for certain 7series. To shift productions, increase capacities etc as you know takes time time time and how do you re cover the BO's let alone the increasing new sales. Then we have the huge demands re shipping bookings and spaces. Happen soon surley generally speaking ?, goss is up to 2yrs if we ever get back to pre covid kind sales flow supply that I think it will be a new ball game in any case. What you don't get on your order is fitted at a later date, that will be one of the new norms unless you decide to go aftermarket for some items.

I drove past the Ford dealer(Maughan Thiem) on Port road at Cheltenham yesterday and they had some in the showroom and another dozen on the forecourt of various trim and engine specs. Same for Jarvis at Norwood. To date i've seen only a handful on the road in the 5000km I've done for work since release. Last edited by BENT_8; 11-08-2022 at 12:16 PM. |

a good sign, hopefully flowing through the rest of Ford’s manufacturing centres.. Quote:
due to the shutdown there, probably why we’re seeing an odd mix that doesn’t seem to match exactly what buyers want on the ground. Locked in customer orders are probably causing some mismatch with dealer floor stock, New Hiluxes everywhere..Grrr. |
