They are sitting on tens, it not hundreds of millions in $$$ of S560’s. They’ve probably close to filling up every parking lot and ramp and have no more capacity for new schedules.They probably have to focus everything on shipping for a bit.
While it may feel true, Ford has a lot and I mean a lot of real estate in that area. Plenty of parking availability.They are sitting on tens, it not hundreds of millions in $$$ of S560’s. They’ve probably close to filling up every parking lot and ramp and have no more capacity for new schedules.
They've already scheduled cars up to October. This may mean they will have no more space on the lots after October.While it may feel true, Ford has a lot and I mean a lot of real estate in that area. Plenty of parking availability.
This seems to be accurate. They will schedule October dates next week.More October dates should be coming next week. While I am not an insider with Ford I have noticed a trend of 2 weeks of no scheduling (includes last week as only manual DH orders were entered, plus this week of no scheduling) followed by a week of retail only (next week), then main commit (2 weeks from now), then clean-up (3 weeks from now), then repeat. I'm not saying I'm 100% right or that this month will be the exact same way. It's just my observation since the '24s started rolling off the line.
I just wonder how many more S650's Ford is going to build before they start shipping them out. And if there are QC issues that prevent shipment, why do they continue to build them?More October dates should be coming next week.

Yeah, I have a hard time believing that the delays are caused by QC issues. If there were QC issues, the vehicles would need to be brought back into the plant and fixed, but there are already so many units that have been released from FRAP already.I just wonder how many more S650's Ford is going to build before they start shipping them out.

The one I talked to today said there ARE NO DELAYS! He was NOT too niceYeah, I have a hard time believing that the delays are caused by QC issues.

The only thing I can think of is a software issue that Ford plans on patching OTA, but I'm just speculating and I could be completely wrong.
