Great! So when the entire build is done on-line by the customer and possibly a Ford auto attendant, who is going to bite the bullet if/when it comes in wrong? Can't blame the salesman anymore :LOL:

IMO, no chance this happens. Ford had the opportunity to put this exact model into action with the Bronco. Remember they told us reservations would be built before dealer stock and in order of timestamp. Then the dealers lost their collective minds, and we wound up with the ridiculous model in place right now.

Ford is in the business of enabling its dealerships, and not in the business of selling cars to consumers.

“Time is death to a deal,” Mr. Jolliffe said. “There’s an old adage in the car business that the longer you wait after the first customer contact, the more chance you’ll lose them.”

Ford is testing your adage Mr. Jolliffe.

Volkswagon AG's response was it'll match the vehicle better to the consumer's wants. Since Europe is converting to all electric much sooner than us, that makes sense to them. I don't know how fast the electric infarstucture will be built here, but the F150 Lightning reservations say consumers want electric here too.
They are saying they can build 60K the first year and are well past 110K reservations. Pretty good chance Lightning is the next Bronco fiasco.
