Glad you were able to switch. After reading the news that we can switch powertrains and trim, wanted to switch from a hybrid xlt to a Tremor xlt. My order was a converted 22 to 23 and by the time I wanted to change, dealer said that it was already priority 2 and it might not be a good idea. One month later, it's assembled and shipped. Oh well.
I wonder if the instant gratification culture we have contributes to someone telling you that they don't make any money from helping you. I would have tried to make your experience smooth as hell, and since you already showed willingness to buy a car, played the long game by getting you my card and info, and developing a relationship where in a year or two you seek ME out to buy your next one.
Your right, we people that watch videos and follow forums about the Maverick know so much more about the processes of ordering than the dealer. I ordered a hybrid lariat on the first day loaded up and I'm not going to switch mine. From the videos I have watched, since I ordered on the first day I should get it but maybe not till summer but I'm fine with that.
I wish you luck and a word of advice, don’t trust anything Ford tells you via email or the track your order tool. I’ve been scheduled then unscheduled also I’ve been built and waiting for shipment back to in production. I’m at the point when it’s here it’s here and that’s my advice to everyone who’s waiting.
I've heard that online tracker tool is very unreliable and your best bet is just to call Ford directly most of the time. They have access to far more than we do through that tool.
I don't think you want hybrid anyway. Any vehicle that constantly switches between power sources is likely doomed to fail for instance fail at 70mph on the highway.

That's very true. Many of us know significantly more than these dealerships and it only makes the process even more difficult.
Good luck!
Thanks! Let's see how many times this build date changes lol.
I had the exact same problems with my dealership.
It was like pulling teeth haha.

I have the same built date
Build twins! Haha
Seems you order, they try to get you to give up then sell it on their lot for 10k+ over msrp.
Well... if you lived in Texas, you won't even get the option to Order. Not allowed.
Sad for a state that loves the free market.
I would never switch from the hybrid - as a former Ford owner for nearly 40 years, I gave up on Ford. So tired of their excuses.
Most of my driving is 55+ mph anyways so I figured why not. Thanks for the input!

Did you need a vin number to go online and check the status of your order?
Yes the order tracking tool does not work without a VIN.
How many miles did u put on Ure ST?
Bought it new and sold it at around 38,000 miles.
Lucky
I'll consider myself lucky once the truck actually shows up lol.
It's funny what $6,000 will do to Ford.
Apparently motivate them to make a vehicle. Haha.
If that ain’t bait and switch from ford idk what is..?
