Support group for those waiting for their Ranger MY22

[Wence5]

Just seen their is no scheduling next week for all ford vehicles only a few transit connect vans who the hell wants one of those things !!!! I think at this point I am going to go buy a new RAM !!!! And forget the ranger at least RAM can get truck's out to their customers!!!!!!!

Well, I'm in a want phase rather than a need phase. I'll ride it out until I get a call saying I'm bumped to 2023. At that point I'll cancel my order and go to brand X.

Almost 3 months and counting

We are experiencing that ford is a joke !! They are definitely struggling to satisfy their customers!!! You shouldn't have to wait 6 months to get a truck !!!!!!

He'd be a proper alcoholic by then!

Nope I don't drink just a lot of coffee to keep me up at night wondering when the hell ford will get there head out of their Ass !!! The last time I ordered a new truck was in 1996 was a new body style f150 got in in 6 weeks not 6 months I know things are a bit more difficult now but come on!!!!!

Yep I feel your pain, there was a news article the other night here proving that good second hand versions of some cars in demand are actually worth up to $10,000 MORE than the equivalent new model that you might wait 6 months for.

3 years ago who would have thought a secondhand car was a gold chip investment opportunity.

Supporting this, is my recent insurance bill for my Ranger, the insured value had been going down for the last couple of years as you would expect. This years was worth MORE than what I paid for it back in 2019! Crazy times!

Ford cannot get 22's cleared from their lots so don't expect the delivery date on '23s to hold. Maybe they will but Ford is not doing well on meeting delivery targets.

Been lurking here and finally joined so I could add another no show.
Ordered by my dealer 12/11/21. Blend 3/21/22, showed up as built 3/22/22. Signed contract end of March with a first week of April delivery date. Every week since the date has slipped another week. Finally called Ford last week to ask for a honest date and It could be next week or could be the end of August. They have no control over shipping once it's handed to the contractors for delivery. They have lost several of their delivery contractors so things are backed up.
My wife and I have purchased 7 new Ford vehicles in the past, this was to be our 8th. Thinking Ford gave honest dates I sold my car to carvana a couple days before the original date given and we have been stuck with one vehicle so I can't wait much longer. I know Ridgelines are not real trucks but they are available so if no delivery date after next week I may have to buy my first Honda and walk away from Ford. Ford blames it on the truckers but I blame it on poor planning on their part.

They are my exact same dates I have. I’ve been told 8 different delivery dates. I would buy another Honda in a heartbeat but the ranger is towable. Good luck. I’m going to wait this out for now

Leave me out of this conversation, Sir!

I'm at the point where I'd rather have Ford just tell me they canceled my order, and I should go buy a competitor's product.
Honestly screw this company for not keeping us up to date.

It's become fairly obvious to anyone with any sort of business experience that Ford is being run by utter morons.

This thread is very quickly filling with a lot of hate. If you're unhappy then cancel your order and move on. Stop the whining and complaining.
Most of the manufacturers are experiencing issues. Go custom order your overpriced and underpowered tacopro and see how long it takes. Please feel free to go custom order your Lego blockish frontier pro 4X with crispy plastic interior. Please feel free to go order your Chevy, it's the next best option.
I suspect you will have to wait quite a while.

This thread should be a light hearted support for those waiting and congratulations to those who get theirs. Not a Ford bashing "want some cheese with your whine " thread.

Good news everyone! My Ranger was just delivered to the dealer and will be ready to pick up on Tuesday!

 

[canyonslicker]

I kinda feel bad for everyone here but I ordered a Maverick in September and got a build week of 6/6, then 6/13 and now 6/28. At least it wasn’t a Bronco.
