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.

It can’t, dependent on overseas production. It would take years to be able to ramp up.

Intel and AMD (in their embedded electronics divisions) are building factories in America, so is TSMC. It takes time.

With the insane prices for Ford F-150's, Ford has zero motivation to "fix" this problem. They're loving their ultra-high profit margins and frankly, who can blame them?

RAM & GM are too.
