Well look at that - they really do exist! Not all just ones and zeros LOL. Looks like they get temperature on the dials, something they removed on F150

Could they be custom orders waiting for the people who ordered them to pick up ?

I heard from my dealer yesterday that my vehicle was set for production week 5/2 now and then I get this email today. The last email I got said the week of 4/11. Guess it shows how delayed the email process is for FMC.

I ordered an XLT as well. Ours is as basic as you can get for an XLT Max. Iconic silver, black cloth interior, 4x4, and auto start/stop removed. Don’t see what the issue is with production on it, not like there are a lot of extra parts like in the high trim levels.

I think it is a little more complicated than just parts being available. It's how Ford can use those parts to make more profit. So if the XLT parts can be put into a higher trim to complete it where they can make more profit, I'd be willing to bet that is their first path which would in essence push lower trims like the XL and XLT further back in line. That is pure speculation on my part.

Their goal is to make the most money they can as soon as they can. Remember they have investors to make happy.

That’s a pretty good theory that I wouldn’t argue with too much I guess lol
