Ford email update, damn. They use a lot of fluff to say we are short on chips due to a poor business supply chain model that we have been unable to resolve in over two years.

"Thanks again for placing your 2022 F-150 Raptor order. We’re working hard to assemble your vehicle, but it’s going to take more time than expected to finish it.

We want to make sure it’s assembled right, so we will be performing quality checks, inspections and tests before it’s delivered to you.

We know there’s a lot of anticipation when it comes to getting into a new vehicle, so we’ll make sure to keep you updated. Once your vehicle is assembled, you’ll be hearing from us again with an estimated date for delivery to your dealer"

Ford got downgraded yesterday... looks like they won't have enough chips to build most of it's vehicles this year! Sad.

Ford looks "vulnerable to the ongoing chip shortage," warns Barclays, having secured supplies of only about one-third of the semiconductor chips it needs to build its targeted number of automobiles this year and those at higher prices than they cost a couple of years ago.

Current ETA to dealer is May 21. Not holding my breath. Still no activate button on Ford Pass.
same. worst part of the year wait has been since the build date. I still don't understand why they would build it if they don't have the chips, so they can sit in a parking lot waiting for damage/theft. Chip fire happened in April 2021, and they said chip production would be back to normal within 100 days, so August at the latest. still unable to recover as a manufacturer, pathetic. endless excuses.
