My latest order email from Ford.

[norway32]

Here's my update-once again, today I received the "supply chain problems so no Ranger for you email". Only the Second email in 8 mos. Complete joke. Ranger is not a high-demand vehicle, at least not compared to Bronco/Maverick. Hard to understand.

So it gets less priority because of it. Add on top that it is a new gen the suppliers have to switch over and not just continue with mostly the same parts from last year.

Changed my mind. Dealer gets mine now.

Nice Bronco! I'm a little jelly!!! I started out 4 years ago wanting to get a used FJ. Then the FJ prices skyrocketed and I wasn't about to pay 30K+ for a vehicle with 200K miles on it. So I started looking at the Broncos. My wife was totally on board as she loves the Broncos (her dad had one back in the day). But then I started weighing the utility of a truck (had 4 trucks over the last 25 years) and thought the Ranger would be a better choice. But now, with all of the delays, etc. I am wondering if I should just go find an FJ! Or maybe a Bronco. Or maybe I will hold out for the new Ranger. lol

Super nice!!! Our local dealer had a white 2 door sitting there, he offered to me without the markup! I almost bit, would have been a real impulse buy. One of my regrets, though. Talk about a late-life crisis

It seems like Broncos are more obtainable now a days. The soft tops especially, have just been sitting at my local dealer. They also have like 8 Bronco Raptors in transit and 3 F150 Raptors on the lot. Not sure if this is any reflection on the current conditions or what.

It rides soooo much better than my Ranger did. And the trans shifting is much better also.

I think things are changing, probably due to the high interest rates on top of the high pricing. Also, I was on a waiting list to order a Ranger Raptor and some people must have dropped out because I just received a call...

My idol, a Bronco AND a Ranger Raptor! What part of FL, you dodge a bullet this week? 2 sisters live near Cedar Key on the Suwannee, one left town, one hunkered down, no damage to speak of.

Yeah I am on the job 2 timeline, but I am secretly hoping some Job 1 folks will drop out by then and I can get one earlier. We'll see.

Yes, dodged it! That's awesome that they didn't get any damage. Palm Coast, had some gusty wind and a little rain, that was it. Oh, it won't be a Bronco and a Raptor. It'll be one or the other.

Yea Ford really dropped the ball on this whole thing. Funny how my dealership was quick to answer any emails until I sent one about giving me my $500 deposit back on an order not even pulled for production. Needless to say that was over a week ago, I'll be paying them a visit tomorrow and they better hope they have a reasonable excuse.

Ive never been a brand loyalist, but you snooze you lose as they say.

Needless to say;

I’m thinking about canceling my R Raptor and ordering a GMC Canyon. The RR can not be flat towed (actually I don’t think any 2024 Ranger can be flat rowed behind a motor home. And the canyon can. I really wanted that V6. Vs a 2.7 4 in the Canyon.

Nice! How does the power and suspension feel in comparison to your 5G Ranger?

In my case the original buyer backed out 2 weeks before his order was to arrive. It was the color I wanted with the options I wanted.

This was a purchase of opportunity and dumb luck.
