Ford’s supply chain problems include blue oval badges for F-Series pickups

[Jbrubakerjr]

Wonder what other vehicles this is impacting???? That would really stink to delay delivery because they didn't have a blue oval. If they send me a black one I will be glad to send them my blue ones back. Just sayin'.

this is just pathetic .
lets make sure we got this correct
ford- yall introduce new evs that are nothing but a disaster for the environment and cost a damn kidney
a new mustang in convertible, and hard top with several trim choices
then however many stupid tremor raptor wildtrack shelby roush mickey mouse editions of what ever you offer while slapping plastic trash bin fenders on broncos
All during these shortages, pandemic, inflation etc.
but --
no one can make some plastic fake chrome ovals hit em with blue paint and then clear over it.

those ugly Nissan frontiers look better all the time.

These pricks deserve every bit of humiliation they get just for making me wait the 7 months I did to get my truck. F Ford.

Just did a survey and I said Ford needs to get their shit together on the supply chain issues.

Ford should go hit up alibaba for some emblems. Sheesh probably the same anyways.

They could pass the savings on for buying knock-offs of the authentic emblem…

And sell them to Ford.

Will the next item on the deleted list be the Blue Oval(s)?

I have an F-150 grill for sale on various sites, complete with the Blue Oval. Maybe time to raise the price .

Kind of sad really, Ford once was one of the most vertically integrated companies in the world, even making their own steel, glass, and tyres.
Financial gurus of the 1980's said this is bad, you should be divesting all of these divisions, and concentrate on your core business, come one small strand of self replicating RNA, and all this financial modelling is shown to be a house of cards.
Your core business can't work if it is dependent on suppliers, who are dependent on suppliers, etc.

Not to be an asshole here but I’m seeing a lot of people bash Ford on the supply chain issues. Well if you don’t know everyone is having the same issues with not getting parts. For the ones that say Fck Ford, you had your chance to walk away from your order and buy something else. So why are you still here? If I had to guess it’s because all the other trucks were junk. I myself think it was worth the wait for my new truck. Everyone is such a critic when things don’t go their way.

Fun fact - Ford will soon be changing to white ovals instead of blue.

So it appears the trucks may be backing up based on this shortage? I would be crazy upset...
