Until we can order it it's vaporware

Agreed. After, this is the motor and drive systems from the F-150 Lightning and/or Mach-E that really exist, right?

Whether they'll sell it individually, esp in this time of shortages is what is possibly vaporware.

This is not a new undertaking for Ford. Ford sells a ton crate motors. This is already available on the Ford Performance website. https://performanceparts.ford.com/part/M-9000-MACHE

There has never been an FP part that was given a part number, but never made available. They have offered pretty exotic engines, and even the components to convert lesser Mustangs into special edition ones.

It is highly unlikely Ford will renege on this.

So, Tesla Cybertruck and Tesla FSD are also vaporware, yes?

Oh, forgot, you can buy Tesla FSD, it just doesn't work that way.. So, I guess it's still a vaporware.

The parent comment revealed the marketing sleight-of-hand, didn't it? The Cybertruck can be "ordered", therefore it's not vapourware. It doesn't matter that the vehicle doesn't actually exist and the order involves a tiny, refundable deposit.
