How is Ford going to deliver on the Gen 3 Raptor with this chip shortage?

The unfinished Superdutys alone are visible from space!

Stockpile of Unfinished Ford Super Duty Pickups Missing Chips Is Now Visible from Space

Notice how new trucks are getting harder and harder to find? Well, here's why.

Ha wow.

the answer is that they’re not. I would bet that no one takes delivery before 2022. It’s just not happening.

Ford needs to throw in the towel on the MY2021 Raptor. It's too late in the game. Even if they take orders this summer and deliver a few vehicles in Fall, it's a MY2022.
And... give us some HP and TQ numbers already.

Well that settles it. Now they pretty much have to bring back the SCABs.

My dealer said Ford will be doing a short run of 2021 Gen 3's and each dealer will be getting a limited supply. Glad I'm on his list.

I posted this in another thread, I bet you get your truck in 2021, but I bet it gets moved to a model year 2022.
I have a friend who has worked for Ford for 30 years and said they were told all raptors will be model year 2022 but still delivered early fall. Still a small run for this year though

If they’re doing a limited run this yr, might be smarter to wait because maybe they’ll do what’s right and (1) improve HP/TQ and (2) stop this stupid blue interior BS in 2022

Maybe they sell 1 truck this summer and say here guys we did it, MY 2021 promise kept...onto next year

I hope your right. I wouldn't mind getting a my22 in 2021.

Wake up, it's not happening, even though i'm 100% behind you.
