People don't understand that Ford is a business. Zero sense to invest tool up, create special bill of materials, along with all the rest of the processes for a manual 4 cylinder that only like 5 cats are going to buy. Doesn't make $en$e.

it's always the ones that aren't even in the demographic or even in the market. Same thing happened with the 20+ GT500 whole lotta complaining from people that were never going to buy one.
I say most people are dumb, and would buy any shiny new object their favorite brand churns out to feel superior over others, even when that thing is actual shit.

A couple have touched on the digital topic, but here's my question:
Does Ford see the chip shortage ending by MY 2024? This fully imersive digital experience has got to be chip heavy. Or is the plan to make 15 a month with supply of parts on hand that day?

No. LOL

I think latest projections I've heard say it'll go into late 2025, if not 2026.
