2 door, 2 door, 2 door ....think about it....even the OEM doesn't have a large volume shippable solution...NO competition....build it and they will come....heck, even Ford might buy 'em !!!
Thanks Zack...kinda confused...based on the column titled "Reservation No." and your recap above the chart;
1)If we divide the "Reservation No." by 12 ( 12 months) that equals your monthly allocation???....Example: 7/16/2020 is 200 ( divided by 12) = your (monthly) allocation is 16 Broncos? is...
The collective would have to be careful with that strategy (ordering more with the big G )....as the Mothership could "punish" the satellite ship by not delivering ANY blue oval product...better to purchase an alternative manufacturer's product...the other Motherships are watching this drama...
Hmmm...interesting strategy:
1) if the collective added orders to the database in large numbers, the mothership may have a tough time on what to believe: a) increase the purchase/planning of materials, hoping that the orders are "true", b) ignore the orders ( based on dealership location) and...
Zack, thanks for the update...( do you want to be a little fish in a big pond?, or a big fish in a little pond?....sometimes corporate types just don't get it...) I'm hanging in there....( as long as the old Frontier keeps on running) looks like 2023 for me. Again, thanks for the update

motorcycle nut here...I use a "Spot" ....both on and off road...device is not costly ($100?), but they get you with a yearly subscription( $175+? based on emergency support you may want)...you can share your tracks with friends via computer ( password protected) ...it's been around awhile and...
common denominators - what your configuration may have in "common" with the next "batch" released from planning to production. May be as common as color or as complex as engine and tranny...lead time for components that allows the unit to built without any shortage(s)...the assy line never stops...
went with Granger (Octobronco), after canceling a 7/16 resv with Ford Country here in Henderson...(white top= MY22)...someone on here said that Gaudin and Ford Country were owned by the same organization... ( early on seem to receive poor comm on the 7/16 resv) ...If you want a local...
Vertical manufacturing ( where one company controls all manufacturing processes) is dead, outsourcing is the new ( purchasing/supply chain) strategy...unplanned demand creates shortages and delays. Marketing could have done a better job to predict demand for the pacing item(s)( granted they...
