To order a 2021 truck or order a 2022 truck ?

With all the issues caused by Covid in 2021, I'm not sure I would buy any brand truck from this year. Problems seems to be cropping up everywhere.

totally agree. i wonder if vehicles in the near future will be called " pre-rona or post rona " ? i keep thinking about fords filling up all the parking lots unfinished in kentucky. sitting for months...then they get to keep assembling them whenever the chips or parts come in....lots of variables in quality control there. also read yesterday subaru is shutting down temporarily due to no chips. nuts. THANKS CHINA!!! cheers!

Mine is Laramie but that's it. Remote start was the only option. Nice seats. But pretty basic compared to my last Laramie that had every box checked including sunroof. Plus it's a RWD so it has a unique look. Usually a company truck in that configuration and a tradesman.

When I priced the Laramie vs the Limited, I ended up with-in about$1000 with what features and selections I wanted on each, Bought my Limited for $12 under SRP since it had been on the lot for a while, so figured it wasn't worth ordering the Laramie and paying full invoice just to get the Walnut Brown exterior color I wanted and no sunroof

I would have paid the extra $12 bucks just to have the window sticker that said "Made for Dean" on it.....that is unless you meant 12k

Don't forget the new (EVAP, etc.) emissions that kick in for 2022 due to the "recycled" administrations original actions back in the day. The big chunk of your window sticker price: Emissions. Some vehicles like a Hellcat Durango will be 1 year only vehicles due to this. So will the vehicles sitting on the lots missing parts still be able to be sold as 2021 models in 2022?

Not all China's fault, takes two to tango. We need to blame ourselves for letting it get this far. My stomach turns everytime I buy something and it's made anywhere but the USA.

I'm guessing yes since the VIN has already been applied. A Lotus dealer just sold a new 2014 Evora earlier this year...
