Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's just the May build weeks that were affected (so far). I know there were a few people on this forum that had 5/9 or 5/16 build weeks, so mostly interested if they were affected. Or to cut to the real chase: I'm really curious on what date the first production Raptor will come off the line. I'm starting to think the back half of May looks more realistic...
All great questions, not many great answers. Other than the MY23 cutover (they have some other fancy term for it) is in early November, so Ford has until then to fulfill whatever orders it can. How many can they produce in 6+ months (May to November)? That is the $64M question.
I saw on another site that they believed the number to be about 3,500 for 2022. I have no clue if they are correct. I'm not aware of any official numbers yet and it will likely be driven by parts availability at this point.
That's pretty much what I've seen across the web. I'm not liking that they already seem to be delaying a week, so you're right that parts availability is the key thing. I wonder what they'll do if they can't build all the orders before November. Move to MY23?
Ahh...somehow I thought your build week was the first one (5/9). Thought I saw a least a couple people with 5/9 build weeks a while back.
If they can't build all of the orders they've accepted for 2022, they won't have a choice but to make the rest 2023.
at least you HAVE a build date. A lot of us are still stuck in step 1
Very true
