Sure. At some point.i Know production at the moment is next to nil, but any chance at a future gt500 allocation?
It's too profitable of a nameplate to be gone forever.

I was about due for a new vehicle a couple years ago, hoping they would sort out the HPFP issues. Now with how insane the market is I guess I'll just have to fix what I've got forever. By the time prices "normalize" it's going to be an all EV market.I know my daughter is getting a little worried. She was going to get a new car before the world was infected with the stupids, but held off because she was working from home and not driving. Now that she is back to work the market is nuts.
If you believe in on conspiracies that’s exactly the goal. What better timing and or fall out to slide in and change the landscape without much push back.I was about due for a new vehicle a couple years ago, hoping they would sort out the HPFP issues.

Awesome man me too! How do you like it?
I picked mine up 12/31 and it’s my DD.
Just turned 1500mi and it’s a blast.
Like most things I drive I still think it needs 100hp more at least

The only thing worse than listening to a person talk who paid over MSRP is physically looking at the retarded mutant faced dealership employees that helped assist in the nonsense.
I'm just curious - and I don't give a rats ass about anyones income or financials, nor do I care about who can flaunt their bank accounts - but just tell me this -
Who justifies spending nearly $70k-$100k+ on a Ford Truck (F-Series or new Bronco) - or even say a Mustang? I mean are people taking out 12 year loans or just have that much pocket cash to burn away??
The new full size 2-door Bronco is nice but even with the lower models, $50k+ is even difficult to justify that price for a vehicle.
And my above isn't just "Ford", even say BMW, Toyota, Hyundai, Volvo, etc... nor is it speaking of vehicles WITH ADM... How are folks justifying that even for lower end models across the Auto Manufacturing spectrum that $50k-$60k is now the "norm"?
ADM in and of itself is just stupid - for any buyer to pay it "just because" and "just to have" vehicle XYZ. Here's a word of advice for those paying ADM on any Ford:
If that Ford ever results in a Ford RAV Buy Back due to a Lemon Law claim, that ADM is NOT recoverable by Ford RAV at all. ADM is NOT a Ford line item on the original Window Sticker and is NOT endorsed by Ford. ADM is added by the Selling Dealer and ONLY benefits the Selling Dealer, period. So in the event of a RAV claim, the claim is only up to original MSRP that was on the Ford sticker from the line items as built and as printed from Ford. You're SOL on that ADM and will have to fight with the Dealership to recoup it.
The other thing with ADM too:
An owner who paid excessive ADM will never recoup that ADM expense at all. Not even on "collector" vehicles or limited produced as they appreciate over time. Sure, give it 30-40 years and "maybe", but paying any ADM is equivalent to flushing or burning your money.
Take for example those who were paying ADM on the 2000 Cobra R. Folks were paying in excess of $75k, 85k+ on a vehicle that had MSRP of under $60k of the time. A 2000 Cobra R TODAY is just breaking even in NORMAL markets (not inflated BaT, MECUM or BJ) - now 22 years after the fact. For the last 10 years, a 2000 Cobra R owner was lucky to even get $45k-$50k. Hell, a 1993 Cobra R is making better return, or add in XYZ Porsche from pick your model year...
Maybe I'm just a shrew - but 1) I would never pay ADM regardless of my financials or income, don't care how cool or limited the vehicle is and 2) paying in excess of $50k+ for any "base" vehicle today is crazy. There isn't even that much in materials used to make the car, let alone the "technology".
I'd rather pay used after some other doltz blew a wad of ADM "just because" and ate the depreciation... and I'm not referring to paying in excess on a used vehicle either - there are many deals when shopping "outside the box" and using your noggin....
To each his own. I can’t stand adm but won’t fault the dealer for asking the going rate. I just won’t buy from them as normal middle class worker. For the record I paid $54k for my 250 Tremor 18 Months ago and $48k for my Bronco just delivered.I'm just curious - and I don't give a rats ass about anyones income or financials, nor do I care about who can flaunt their bank accounts - but just tell me this -

...what specs? Lol@Cobra Jet
Yes.
Millennials have taken over baby boomers as the prime spenders and yes.
They DO have money like that, and even more they'll pay up before they will wait, time is more valuable than money to the average Millennial.
30 Trillion dollars plus of net worth is being inherited in the U.S. alone.
Also I literally just priced out a 2022 5.0 F150 at the dealer... 35k
