Ford F-150 Production Bounces Back In May 2026    

Agreed on pricing.....that's what I've been saying all along.

Yea, if not CKD assembly, some form of contract manufacture

D5? WTF is a D5?   Typo? Coupe variant of the CD6?  Not mad, just joking  

This morning's updated gas prices in Hamden, CT 06514 (Greater New Haven) $3.76 Regular (Cash or Credit) @ Oasis (Independent - NOT Gulf) No Change $3.89 Regular (Cash) @ Sunoco (No Change) $3.99 Regular (Cash) @ Citgo (Reduced $0.07 from $4.06)            

Ford or the Dealer can assign priority codes lower than "10" for retail orders. In addition, the Dealer has access to the latest commodity reports for individual orders that will provide specific information for any commodity issues affecting the scheduling of the retail order.

What kind of vehicle?  F450s are built differently due to fleet orders and generally take a lot longer.  For all other vehicles it could be a commodity issue (not enough parts) or your dealer may have other vehicles in front of you.  Find out your order priority.  It should be 10 which is the best.  If it's higher ask the dealer why and who else has a numerically lower priority.  Lowest priority (numerically) gets built first if no commodity holds.  Customer orders should be 10-19.  Dealer stock 20-99.

We have "Milverados" and G-Wagen for light duty. Ranger would be an excellent alternate and it would depend if it's built in Canada. SD? 🤷‍♂️✌️💙🇨🇦💪

So will whatever replaces s650 just be kinda another mild redesign like s650 was, or will it be more radical? Learning d5 is being reused isn't terribly surprising, a little disappointing, but I get it from a cost standpoint. I just hope they're able to do something fresher than s650. Not that s650 is bad, it's just a pretty mild redesign.
