Just my gut feeling. We'll have to wait and see.

Does my Basesquatch look "good to go"?

We don't really have any idea what Ford is planning with their sorting/scheduling. It's totally up to them and I don't have any recent info to allude to how they're going about it. Sorry, but the info just isn't there to make any type of guess.

Did John send you your build sheet via email? If so then there is nothing else to do at this time but wait. Unless of course you had a slight adjustment you needed to make to your build.

people in general are really trying to control things they can’t control
And/or
Guess about all the things that are happening in boardrooms, cubicles and factory floors.

I wonder what they’re serving for snack at MAP today and if that will upset some stomachs and slow down my build .

Not sure what you mean. Yes I received the email orders but I don't see anything on them regarding commodity restraints and in a few posts above John mentions half his FE's are good to go and the other half are currently restrained by the black leather interior. My FE would fall into the currently restrained half and I was wondering if there were any current restraints on my Basesquatch. Is that too much to ask?

As long as you don't have any of the items listed as "limited availability" or "late availability", you should be fine, but, it all still falls onto how Ford does the scheduling/sorting. We have no idea how they're going to be doing that.....

Ah, okay I see what you mean. I didn't realize you had TWO orders. The basesquatch threw me off.

Take this bit with a grain of salt: Another thread indicated that the black FE interior was being scheduled right off the bat which went against what Ford previously communicated that black interior on FE is a delayed option. We do not have anything in writing from Ford confirming the black interior FE have been moved forward. If it's not already on the forum then I highly doubt John is withholding information on this.

Now onto your Basesquatch... the "High demand" items from Ford is as follows...

- 2.7L engine
- Sasquatch package
- leather interior
- Wildtrak build
- lux package

So seeing as your basesquatch only contains one "high demand" item (unless you have the 2.7) then you shouldn't run into any MAJOR delays. I would say it more so comes down to when the Basesquatch was ordered (time stamp) than anything at this point.

That's why I asked John about it. My timestamp is good, #3 on Johns allocation, and was wondering if I was "good to go" whatever that really means or if the Sasquatch package was in fact a constraint at this time.

Here's something ya'll may find interesting, me and my 1989 Bronco, 351, auto, 6" lift.... along with an "after" photo, after I put the Urban Camo to it.... this was back in around 2003 or so.

EDIT: I primarily used it for hunting and mountain rescue (I spent 24 years as a firefighter). I don't know of the times I've arrived back in the mountains on an ATV accident where flatlanders had twisted themselves into knots on ATVs with wide-eyed city dwellers asking me "...how in the hell did you get that thing back here?!?!?!?" Lots of experience my child, lots of experience

Holy Cow!

So is this bad boy still in your stable? @StephensAutoCenter

nah. I wish I still had it, but at the time, I didn't have room at the new house for it. If I had it to do over again, I woulda taken it to the father-in-law's for safe-keeping until I had the opportunity to get it back to it's old glory. i had a lot of fun in that thing for a few years tho. it went everywhere i wanted it to go. even had the opportunity to pull a buddy out of the mud, he was in a K5 Blazer, diesel, ex-military vehicle..... so, that was very satisfying... especially when I went through the same spot in 2WD

I know it won’t have the same sentimental value but are you considering ordering a 6G? (assuming you don’t already have one on order)

 

[StephensAutoCenter]

We're going to get one (more than likely). It will probably be for the wife as I bought a new truck in 2019. We'll be out of that payment around 2024.
