UPDATE: I finally took delivery of my F250 on 28 JANUARY 2023. Eleven and a half months after ordering it, and four months after it was built. The shipping delays cost me upwards of $3500. With such terrible shipping operations exemplary of Ford not truly caring about delivery of their product, it is no wonder they are losing so much business and money.
Unfortunately, Ford has bought into all the BS “climate hype” about EVs. Electric pickups don’t have nearly the tow capacity that fuel trucks have. And, like you said, it takes forever to charge them up, if you can find a #2 charging station…..which probably gets its power from fossil fuel generation plants. Who do “they” think they are kidding? Oh! I know………the dummies who don’t understand the physics of this planet.
I’m with you, Harvey. I special-ordered my F250 in February 2022. It was finished being built on 28 September 2022. First delivery lie was 18-28 October. Second delivery lie was 14-20 November. Third delivery period, we have yet to see if it is a lie, is 13-19 December. The truck has been sitting on ramp 1K at the Kentucky truck plant since 28 September. Two and a half months!!! One would think that a special order truck would have priority over trucks made to sit on dealer lots. But, NOOOOOOOO!
If I was CEO of Ford, I would immediately fire everybody in the shipping end of the company and replace them with competent shipping-experienced people. Whenever I call Ford to ask, “when is my truck going to ship?” all I get is the old supply chain, supply chain, supply chain answer.
I sure hope this third delivery period is correct! I NEED TO HAVE THIS TRUCK!
