2022 Superduty launch delayed
Chip shortage is continuing to impact. Posted on Blue Oval Forum production start is delayed to 6/24. I'm personally beginning to get a bit nervous as I suspect my 5th wheel will be available soon...

6/24 is launch of 2022. They have to have x amount of days of no quality issues to reach ok to sell. IRC, it's one week of no issues. There are tens of thousands of 2021 trucks sitting missing something. 2021 Customers are being told they are being moved to 2022 model year. ALL of those trucks will get cleared out before 2022 will get delivered. Ford and GM have both issued press releases expecting revenue being down roughly a billion dollars.
Figure 2 week minimum transport time, and we're suddenly deep into fall delivery.
Not a crystal ball, but a long term understanding of how automotive works.
He hasn't heard otherwise, but he's not in a great rush, so I suppose if its in the fall it won't be that bad.
