They are building them right now. Just wait and you will get yours. The majority of the battle was waiting for production to start.
The other issue is the dealers if you ordered a RR. A lot of dealers are shady and lie like crazy.
I believe January-February are already fully scheduled...
If the issue is across the board, they would fix it for all. I really haven't heard of many issues after the first few years of the 10R being out. The 10R60 did have a couple teething issues, but those look to be sorted out.
Mine had a date of 1/15, but was updated today to "In Production". Maybe they are ahead of schedule :)
Actually, I vaguely remember a post stating that once all of the parts arrive, and are verified for your vehicle that it goes to "in production". It may actually still start next week.
X-plan is good for me because my local dealer has a 579 dollar doc fee that the x-plan limits to 100. Plus invoice price vs msrp is easy savings. (I work for GDBIW and GD is partnered with Ford).
It makes sense that they just keep it for someone else, or take it as an extra to have on the lot. You cancelling just means you don't get it anymore, but the order still exists.
360 co-pilot is all of the sensors like blind spot monitoring, forward pre collision detection/assist, and rear park aids. On the newer models it also has the parallel park assist 1.0, and on the top models it is park assist 2.0 which basically parks for you.
You gloss over the fact that the Michigan assembly plant ranger line was taken down for retooling for the 24 model year. So while you type out your paragraph, maybe you should read factual info, and learn first. You have a lot of lies (maybe not intentional?)/incorrect information.
These NA...
Priority code only matters within your dealership. If you are 4, and your dealership has another order with a 3, they take the 3 first.
Outside of your dealership, the priority code is meaningless. It was also only recently that priority 3-9 was allowed for retail orders.
Some options DO...
The plant is closed for Christmas shutdown, so I imagine it is an automated system. Unless this year is special because of the strike...I haven't heard anything though.
You also can't order a Toyota. You request what you want, and get the best match they can find/get. TBH this argument backfires on that sole fact. Last year when looking at vehicles for my girlfriend, the toyotas were backlogged 2+ months, and you got whatever came in at the time.
Well for the ranger, the power numbers shown are on 87 octane. The MPG was also on 87. I have never looked at the maverick though. Best performance may be on 91, but I am going by everything else that stated 87.
The 2.3l is also rated on 87 octane. It is readily available to look up. I also prefer the turbo torque and horse power curves. 1500ish rpm and you have quite a bit of grunt on tap already. Look up the engine curve of the Nissan. I don't need power at 5.5k+ rpm
The Nissan just didn't check the boxes for me personally. The ranger 4x4 gets better fuel economy than my AWD 2018 ford Taurus, and can tow my 7000 lb tractor/trailer when needed.
Everyone is scared of turbos, but they have been using them overseas just fine for many years. You just can't be...
