your incorrect and MIT article with evidence on CNBC yesterday says your wrong. Don’t believe everything your told is how I live.
MIT study finds you're no safer from Covid indoors at 6 feet or 60 feet

based on your response you didn’t bother to read NIH Hypothesis, you keep believing MSM and I’ll use actual science . Back to trucks , no sense trying to have you open your mind instead of believing what your shoveled by msm is wrong.

 

Excellent!

 

Here in south Tx the lots are normally full of 3/4 ton diesels . The lot I bought my truck on in February has three 3/4 tons . Normally they have 75 or so . The 3 other lots in town are in about the same shape .

 

George C for president. you're on the mark. here in eastern OR nobody wears a mask including myself unless we're forced. and we have a large percentage of ignorant folks who refuse to get vaccinated . and our infection rate is going through the roof so we're damn sure not doing something right. if we all got vaccinated wouldn't that make the stupid masks no longer needed ? so when can I say screw these people who listen to the anti-vaccine crap and get on with normal life that's my question ?

As far as the dealer inventory it's down to nothing and more won't be showing up for months. when they do most will be presold so expect this to last a fait bit of time. order and wait or don't order and wait longer. pretty simple.

 

Lots are same down here in Southeast LA.

all you rushing to get vaccine might want to see if you have anitbodies. The New Orleans metro area got its *** kicked in the beginning, even with the masking which doesn’t work , and about 30-40% of people I know have antibodies and were never sick. So before you go rushing an experimental vaccine in your body, you may want to see if you have natural immunity. Don’t believe the bs it only last 6 months, the studies now say it could be forever like other common cold antibodies. Have a very close friend who runs ER , got it in March 2020 with minimal
symptoms and donates his plasma monthly for people with covid in hospital (convalescent plasma )
cause he still has antibodies.
If your obese or have comorbidities, I would consider getting vaccine. I

 

It's interesting that Niosh and OSHA both have tons of knowledge regarding masks, but both have been closed lipped during this whole ordeal - leaving the directives to be handed down by people who don't know crap.
I think that if you believe a mask works, then you should wear one. BUT don't force others to do so.
The idea of wearing a mask shows love and caring of others is BS. Sorry, but the science proves otherwise.

 

The Inventory will nothing for another year or two ...

 

Zero trucks available in my town right now...

 

LOL, next time one of you guys have surgery, make sure your surgical team does it unmasked.
For every opinion, there is a study funded out there to make your opinion a fact....unless it isn’t.

Now that's awesome.
Face masks combined with other preventive measures, such as frequent hand-washing and physical distancing, can help slow the spread of the virus.
They covered their bases by saying that masks WITH washing hands CAN help slow the spread.
Now let me interpret that for you:
Washing your hands will ALWAYS help slow the spread of viruses.
I won't get into physical distancing as that's been debunked and even the CDC and WHO have admitted it was B.S.

Before you go all in on the masks, maybe you should do some research on the masks, then do some more research on the virus.....
The truth IS out there, but you've obviously fell for the CNN/MSNBC crap - hook, line and sinker.

This is the first time in history we've quarantined the healthy....and STILL the virus found a way.

I could go into the bs numbers you've been fed....but whats the point.

MY point is, if you want to wear a mask, FEEL FREE TO DO SO if you hold faith and value in it. Like religion, I don't care what yours is, just don't try and jam it down my throat, same thing with masks.

Have a nice day and remember to wash your hands frequently, it has been proven to be the single best solution.

 

Research..LOL.
What you are suggesting is to scour the internet for a “study” that agrees with your particular opinion, and that becomes fact..There are just as many other “studies” that do not agree.
I agree with you, be free to either wear one, or not...that is your right...but it is not your right to not wear a mask around others who feel that you may be jeopardizing their health.

The selfishness from anti askers is arrogantly expected because it’s all about themselves..I do not feel I have the right to arrogantly share my breath into someone else’s airspace, therefore out of respect..right or wrong...I do not and I wear a mask..

 

I have not been by the ford dealer here in Wi. .. Just got back from winter in Fl. ..
But GM and Dodge dealers seem to have the same problems .. Last Jan. it was just Trucks ..
Now it seems to be across the board ..
Local Gm Dodge dealers together may have 40 new vehicles on the lot ..
The chip shortage is a problem for everyone ..

 

I'd say a study that was JUST released from MIT (yes, THAT MIT!!) is a pretty sound study that, a) Didn't require scouring the Internet to find, and b) Isn't partisan and doesn't have a dog in the fight so I trust it more than most others. Oh, and we down here in FL are doing just fine with our loose mask wearing, etc., which you would know from being in Naples...numbers here don't lie.

I especially like this quote at the end of the article: "We need scientific information conveyed to the public in a way that is not just fearmongering but is actually based in analysis,” Bazant said. After three rounds of heavy peer review, he said it’s the most review he’s ever been through, and that now that it’s published he hopes it will influence policy."

As for trucks, we have a 2019 F250 FTX and it is a magnificent truck but our lawn guy wants it so bad we are really considering selling it to him because the $$ would be really good. I work at AutoNation and can look at all our dealership inventories and let me tell you, there are NOT a lot of trucks in our 300+ dealerships coast to coast. Ugh! So, if we were to sell, we'd have to settle for a lesser vehicle and don't want to do that. I would like a Limited or KR and "she" is very particular about color, so that leaves us with quite the challenge. She doesn't like any of the blues that Ford currently has (Anti Matter Blue is too dark for her and she doesn't want a black truck, and that blue is too close to black. So, that leaves us with Stone Grey...and trying to find just the right truck in this environment, even with all the tools at my disposal...it's a daunting task.

 

NIOSH and OSHA are both concerned with stuff entering the wearer's lungs. CDC is concerned with stuff LEAVING the wearers lungs.

 

I had a difficult time finding a F450 let alone getting the options I wanted. I ended up traveling about 500 miles to get my truck about a month ago. Wish I could have waited for the 22's as I like the redesigned dash and larger screen (coming from a Ram with that huge screen which was nice). If you can't find what you want maybe waiting for the 22's is best. At that price point they are asking I'd say get exactly what you want. Don't settle. Good luck!

I used autotrader.com to help find my vehicle which has a good filter system to find what you want. Ford's website is good for local dealers but you'll probably need to reach further out then what ford.com allows and autotrader does that (new or used).
