This was shared here earlier in the week. Brian from Ford said that it’s a prioritization due to an aluminum shortage not a cancellation. Thread went on for a while, in case you want to read it and feel out people's thoughts. No formal cancellation announced but things don’t look great.

That is why I leased by XLT last Feb when they offered dirt cheap leases. I can just hand in the keys at the end of the 36 months and Ford can eat the loss. What they need to do is offer a high performance XLT version with maximum range and bring it in high 50s. Its a great truck and will go down in the dust bin of history of a failed EV project. Too bad.

WSJ... about as prestigious as the National Enquirer.

Exactly. ^^^^

I don't believe Ford is going to do any such thing.

I'm just going to wait and see if Ford makes an announcement.
