I think you seriously underestimate how many households in this country make 90 K a year truck money. Look at how many luxury brands there are. And look at how many platinum F1 50s and GMC Dinalis are on the road.
20k seems like the upper limit to me but who am I? Also I’d expect that to be a loaded platinum type of customer. There’s a lot of people that can blow 20k on stupid shit and not miss a drop of sleep. Part of why cars cost so much in this country, no one cares about the pro market
I got bumped up because my dealer said he liked my enthusiasm ??‍♂️. Probably wants the maverick I ordered but I’m likely #5 of 5 and I won’t be able to get an xlt so I’ll just drive that till next year I guess.
Wellllll now I won’t sleep until everyone here posts that the xlt is sold out and I’m waiting till next year. ? I am definitely the 5th allocation at my dealer if they even prioritized me correctly ?
this would make sense, my dealer is pretty candid about what he does and does not know. As of yet he says he has not heard anything from Ford today.
My feeling is wave one is going to be a lot of special interests and a small test group.
Hey I’m sure if Tesla ever figures out what they want to do, Elon can send out an inspirational email and a snarky tweet. Everyone will then gleefully work 7/10s to pump out some cyber trucks.
Why would they put so much emphasis on Linux based? I don’t view that as a positive since seemingly everyone else is going the apple route and moving to a scratch built OS
Yeah mine never said first wave just that I was getting one of his allotted 5. Based on my order date I’d guess I’m last wave or maybe one better and I’m interested to see if I can get an xlt+ 312. I am assuming your average lightning buyer is opting for leather, obviously ford does too.
