Well, a lot of info today more this evening maybe.
Two meetings already and one to go.

No problems with the supply of batteries now coming in from LG chem Poland.
The problem again with be meeting the demand 3 to 5 years from now.

EPA did clear over 300 miles on EXT RWD long range. Didn't' say anything about the other models but he was all smiles. EPA announcement will be out before December 1st.

CNET had nothing but rave reviews for the Ford Mache. The build quality and style are more on par for a vehicle in this price segment.

Demos models are almost finished.

There will be some special delivery plans to try to get as many Mache to customers in 2020 as
ford can.

OKTB is next week and Europe OKTB will be in December.

If all goes good by November 28th they will already be loaded and start heading to the dealers.

Will get to see the Mache myself this Monday. As many different reviews will be testing.

Supply is an issue with covid. As we have talked many times. But ford feels very good right now with the mache. Suppliers are working tremendous hours to keep up with the pace.

@trutolife27 .. thanks for the update.. are you able to give us a range (i.e., 5 to 15%) of how much above 300 miles designed for? I know you said a lot of information is forthcoming next week, but you over peaked my and probably everyone's interest.. lol

Pretty cool that 76% of US orders are Premium, and 79% of US forum member reported orders are also Premium.

I'm mildly surprised that the stats lined up so well. Perhaps the type of person who orders a car so far in advance also has significant correlation with those who decide to talk about their advance orders on social forums?

I wouldn't get my hopes up for anything significantly over. I'd look for barely over. Like 303 or something.

We already had the Canadian sticker clue saying 211 for the AWD SR (210 target).

Copy. Well that would be better than the range that everyone has been disappointed with.

THE numbers I saw were over 20,000 NA and 20,000 EURO and over 20,000 reservations for the GT.
How about 76% of orders are premium models.
That's exactly what our order tracking statistics say, too. 76%.

The divider is in the Mache right now going down the chassis line.

So whoever is happy we are still getting it great. If you don't like you can take it out. But more is better right? One day might need it.
Based on the user manual, I am wondering if there are regions or countries where a frunk divider would not be required?

I guess Ford ahs decided they need it in USA as most cars being made right now are USA bound unless these dividers are going only into Canada or EU cars.

If they do make remote access to frunk available via OTA later , the reasons for teh divider dont go away - so perhaps they would ask us to agree to the risks or something before enabling us to download such an update
