Oh wow! Didn’t realize the 80-amp chargers were so expensive. I guess my only fear is that I could charge other EVs, but it seems like it would work as long as the other ev has CCS connector?
What do you think about this price? I’m trying to figure out if I should bite the bullet or wait for Ford to have them in stock. Does anyone know when that will be...
Three lightnings listed on eBay up for grabs! These have all been titled to individual owners, so they are ineligible for the federal tax credit.
White Lariat - Current bid $99,995...
I honestly think waves no longer matter at this point. They are clearly prioritizing higher dollar builds and will be sending them to states that issue ZEV credits. The scheduling is problematic right now with chips/ transport issues. Time will tell what happens. Just hope to get your truck by...
Yes, I think that’s the safe prediction. Credits as follows:
Take delivery on:
Now -June 30th - Full $7,500 credit
Q3*Ford hits 200k delivers in this quarter*
July 1st - September 30th - Full $7,500 credit
October 1st - December 31st - Full $7,500 credit
January 1st - June 30th, 2023 - half...
Not every dealer will issue a signed purchased contract at time of order. The big thing here is it needs to be signed by both parties- The dealer and the buyer. A lot of people signed their preview purchase orders at time of order, the issue is a good chunk of dealers did not countersign that...
Once the order is in with dealer, it is technically their truck. Ford put systems in place to try and eliminate dealers from adding ADM after the fact, but they messed up here. In all honesty, that screen can show $0, but when you go to pick up, your dealer can say $10,000 markup. It’s a weird...
You can track using your TTGX number by calling this number - 800-235-2352. The system is automated and can tell you current location and ETA, if it’s available.
The dollar amount I’m quoting is essentially a “missed opportunity” dollar amount. If they are able to keep the full credit for another entire quarter they will allow people to claim up to $200 million in credits. I understand the dollar amount doesn’t factor in to the actual phase out, just...
Agree with you 100%. Deliver the dealer mannequins and deliver 3,000-4,000 to customers. Heck, deliver a bunch to Canada! I think by next week we will get a better idea.
By waiting a few weeks they are giving their potential customers the opportunity to gain an additional $3,500 for another quarter. That added money is in the hundreds of millions of dollars. Let’s say they produce 13,000 Lightnings a month x 3 months x $3,500 = $136,500,000. And that is only...
It is in their best interests to sell the 200,000th Ford electric/ hybrid car or truck on July 1st. Tesla did something very similar during their phase out. I think they still can deliver 3,000-6,000 in May/June, then ramp up delivers on July 1st.
