Hopefully it corrects itself through domestic production.

Thanks Congress for rampant spending spree and The Fed for too much stimulus. It jammed the economy and is hurting Americans.

Space aliens: Did you see the latest Ford lot images? That’s it. Call off the invasion. We can’t compete with the Ford trucks.

Rework buries a producer. It’s the worst form of waste.

Ford supports members of the swamp and jumps at the chance to build EV’s just to please the swamp rats.
Should we cry for them?
No. Buy something else.

Hopefully it corrects itself through domestic production. Ford could have easily sold these trucks during the last 9 months. But now Ford looks screwed to me, that due to rising interest rates and recession. That when Ford finally gets and installs the missing microprocessors, that half the buyers will have evaporated. Ford will have to discount them to move them. Or maybe find Mexican drug cartels that can buy a thousand double cabs (crew cabs) at a clip.

They will sell it to bulk buyers who will sell those vehicles overseas. I heard that’s what car companies will do to protect the pricing in the domestic market.
They will never sell these vehicles, for any price domestically, but they will sell overseas for deep discounts.

I wondered about that. The weather has to be taking a toll on paint finish and the interiors.
To: Jonty30
It can’t, dependent on overseas production. It would take years to be able to ramp up.

Looks more like an half empty Rose Bowl for a UCLA Football game.

40,000 trucks at an average of $55,000 each is $2,200,000,000. That’s a lot of cheddar.

Didn’t we once know how to make cars without chips? Instant collector items.

Hopefully it corrects itself through domestic production. Intel and AMD (in their embedded electronics divisions) are building factories in America, so is TSMC. It takes time.

These trucks are going to have to be sold cheap.
