Found posted multiple times in a Maverick owners' Facebook group, Ford sent out a letter—the authenticity of which was confirmed to *The Drive* by the automaker itself—to select order holders saying, "Strong demand and global supply chain constraints continue to delay the scheduled production date and delivery of your Maverick. We have now reached a point where there is a strong likelihood we will be unable to produce your Maverick order within these constraints." This is all happening [in spite of Ford putting a pause on new orders back in January](). The note goes on to outline two ways of moving forward: keep the order and remove some options to increase the likelihood it'll actually get built as a 2022 model year, or convert it into a reservation for a 2023 model year truck—scheduled to begin production later this year—with a "special private offer discount." When I asked Ford for more details, the company didn't offer much regarding the 2023 conversion option's discount, recommending would-be owners contact their specific dealership in August for more info. But the automaker did outline a list of specific 2022 options that are hindering production. "With the unforeseen and unprecedented challenges with the supply chain are currently impacting the following optional features and packages on Maverick: - Co-Pilot360 package (optional on XL, XLT, and Lariat trims) - XLT Luxury package (optional on XLT trim) - Lariat Luxury package (optional on Lariat trim; requires Co-Pilot360 package) - Spray-In Bedliner (optional on XL, XLT, and Lariat trims; included in Lariat Luxury package) - Cargo Management System (optional on XL, XLT, and Lariat trims; included in XLT & Lariat Luxury packages) - Hard Trifold Tonneau Cover (optional on XL, XLT, and Lariat trims) - Splash Guards, Molded, Front and Rear (optional on XL, XLT, and Lariat trims)" The 2022 Maverick Hybrid, meanwhile, has been [booked-out since December]() and orders for the 2023 Hybrid will reopen sometime this summer. Below is the letter that went out to some Maverick order holders on Wednesday. ![]() *Ford Maverick Owners (2022+) | Facebook* *Got a tip or question for the author about the Maverick?
