At this rate it’s anyone’s guess as to when they’ll actually start building 2023 models. I’d be willing to bet that they have a lot of unfinished 2022’s waiting on parts and we’ll be lucky to see any 2023’s delivered before January.

Seems like either you or me are going to own the world's first AGM Ranger :). I wonder if we'll both get the same shade....
Doubtful... LOL

I'm hoping for the darker shade.

You can get the light blue shade.

I asked on long McArthur livestream, Tim said he doesn't know of any constraints on 23 rangers, besides the xl and latiot trim packages (501 and 101 I believe he said)

Pretty much he didn't know why they were pushing them back. LOL frown....

Possibly, but seems odd then that they would just be pushing a week at a time.

Tim just said he'd put 20 on production on the ranger the week of the 16th....

I also got him to comment more on Azure Gray mettalic....

A little after the 2 hour mark. I thought I could replay the live chat, but I don't see that functionality...

Thanks for getting what info you did.
He's a great source of information. Information many dealers don't even bother to know, let alone share.
I hope his dealership great success.

Looks like 2:09. He said they have 2 on order and the build dates are the 16th and 27th. Also said he hasn’t seen AGM in person but he thought it looked like Area 51 but darker.

And a bit before is when I asked about constraints or build issues.

It was a pretty informative livestream... Besides all the Maverick questions. Lol I guess I didn't realize just how popular the Maverick was.

I'm beginning to feel everyone's pain. The anticipation is growing as winter comes closer. The timeline I've seen:

8/6/22 - Email confirmation of order for 2023 Tremor Ranger LARIAT Supercrew® 4X4
9/1/22 - Email for scheduled for production 10/17/22 (Now have Order # and VIN)
10/11/22 - Email production pushed to 10/24/22
10/18/22 - Email production pushed to 10/31/22
10/19/22 - Phone call from dealership checking in saying they were seeing it arriving on site 11/23/22 (dealer also said it's like 4-6 from production until they see it)
10/25/22 - Email production pushed to 11/7/22
11/1/22 - Email production pushed to 11/14/22

The waiting game continues. I don't mind that it is delayed because I had read about the delays recently and figured if I got it anytime before Christmas/EOY that it would be a plus but now I'm questioning that

That reads like most of our experiences, so far.

If I get my truck within 6 months of ordering I'll be happy, within 9vmontha I won't be upset... Any longer and I'll be a grumpy bear. But I would also be a very happy camper if I got my truck when they scheduled it to be built, ie within 3 months. Lol

It is also a little reassuring that he said they haven't had any rangers built yet.... Not sure where long McArthur sits in the volume food chain, so not sure where they fall for allocations etc but reassuring, to me anyway, that were not being left out in the dark...

I also almost wish I had bought my truck from him, as he seems to be on top of and in contact with his customers. And he sounds like he at least attempts to inform his staff of changes and updates so they can update their customers...

He didn't anwser that directly, but it didn't sound like he thought they were.

I don't think they've been built yet...
