This is purely a logistics issue. Ford needs to get thier stuff together and ship the early builds as a top priority.
There ya go. This is the issue. Nothing else. Everyone saying be happy you're getting a truck that's right, be patient, blah blah. All legit responses, a month ago.
The real issue here is, as far as we know, based on multiple sources is that the early builds needed some fix to remedy an issue. That remedy has been identified and retrofits have been done. Period.
New trucks rolling off the line have the remedy built into their production so no retrofit is necessary.
The problem is there's a shit load of trucks sitting in a lot that can't go anywhere because they are boxed in due to no FIFO process. Ford needs some remedial training for their logistics folks.
That is what I am pissed about. Nothing else. I have no issues waiting as long as necessary for Ford to make sure my truck is right and delivered. Again, as far as we know the trucks are good to go. Whats not good to go is apparently Ford has no way of putting a pause, or using second location for the newly produced trucks to sit long enough to allow them to clear the lot and get those older trucks moved up and shipped out. Or use an alternate source for delivery outside of their normal rail/convoy partners. That's the bottom line here, none of the other crap applies.
All that said, I'll be very happy when my truck arrives.
