I surrender!! 3 days before the contract expires so I seriously doubt if they begin production at all.
They likely won't strike all at once. They'll just focus on one plant at a time and expand the strike every 3-4 weeks.

Same with me. On one hand it buys me time for my 90 days to hit with Mustang club so I can get Xplan, on the other hand, how is Ford so bad at manufacturing?
eh there's probably a lot of issues involved. gives me more time for a downpayment lol

For those of us who has never ordered a car before, how long is the wait generally from production date to delivery?

I’ve been told a month if it goes by rail but there’s a trucker shortage and a rail car shortage so probably longer. If you’re closer to MAP it might be convoy only and that could be about a week.

I just got an email from Ford telling me my build week changed. It’s the same week I already saw last time. But it’s nice to know they’re sending updates now.

The Tacoma is even more imaginary than the Rangers. No one even knows when the Tacomas start production.

Except they are more likely to actually be built as they are non-union and won't be affected adversely by the strike.

That is an interesting take considering the Tacoma's most likely won't be out until sometime next year. As soon as the union issue is taken care of, the rangers would likely start production.

Again, we have no idea when the new Tacoma's will even start production...Toyota has given even less information than Ford.

I guess it depends on which model Tacoma. From what I understand, the models delayed until next year are the Hybrids, not the standard models. So that means no TRD PRO or Trailhunter, but that models like the TRD Offroad, Limited, etc.. will likely start shipping in October. Toyota's model is quite different than Ford. Ford could easily loose Ranger sales to the new Tacoma if they are available. I know I'm watching them as well.

In 2019 before covid issues, I ordered my F150 in mid February and did not get it until end of May.
In 2015 I ordered a F150 in early January and did not get it until late April.
They were already building those when ordered.
It always feels like it takes forever.
With all the issues these days it may take forever. :frown:
