Well there’s nothing we can do!
I’ve been to Toyota dealers all day looking for a Tacoma and they get sold soon as you try to get there!!!
I as well just wait for the Broncos it takes two years more!
Same. I’d rather have them stop the line than build my truck and let it sit on ice mountain waiting for parts

Actually not the worst news. If they are only going to be down through next week, then hopefully that's an indicator they are expecting to be able to resume some significant level of production in a couple weeks.
Trying to be hopeful.

The probably don't have enough snowplow drivers to clear off the Ice Mountain 2 lot. It may be easier to shut down the plant than park Bronco's in snowdrifts.
They are shutting both Chicago and Michiagn down. They said that there is a semi conductor shortage. They will be down until Feb. 7.

Nope, THROUGH the week of the 7th. By my math that means until the 14th.
"Ford takes downtime at ... plants amid chip crunch"
I can't be the only one who reads this as "we ran out of space to park half built vehicles"
