Based on long MacArthur videos, and the below link.

~1700 unscheduled orders. March orders have been scheduled.

January had ~2600 Rangers built.

If I were to guess, I'd say it shouldn't take to long to get your ranger. But I'd reach out to your dealer and ask if there are any constraints that they know of, if the sales guy doesn't know what your talking about ask to talk to the sale manager, or general manager.

Have they had the OKTB yet for 2024s? Last I knew they had not, and until that happens, they won't release any of the built units. It kind of sounds like they have some manufacturing issues they are working thru. If that is true, it is probably for a good reason - Maybe they are trying to improve quality....

Not sure, when I was waiting for my truck I spent a lot of time researching statuses, I've only spent a few hours over a few days researching this... I imagine more time would yield more bits of data that could give a clearer picture of what's going on.


Quality. Laf. They couldn't get the 5g right.

The blue oval website used to have insiders with info that they would post but in the last couple of years ford corporate seems to have shut them down so info is a lot harder to get now. So much for transparency....

I'm not holding my breath on quality just giving them the benefit of the doubt.

The other thought I had was, it's a marketing ploy that all the new Rangers will flood the streets at the same time. But that would require alot of forethought, not something ive seen from Ford...

But based on the number of Rangers ordered and built I wonder if there isn't also some sadness that the sales are lower than expected...
