So how are we doing John?

Any stats you can share? such as % cancellations or % converted to 22MY?

I have touched base with everyone 7/13 thru 9/18 timestamps, a few have yet to respond to voicemails or emails, but not many. As of right now, it's about 50/50 of our total customer numbers either sticking with MY21 or they're in the MY22 category, either because of post 9/18 timestamps or voluntary deferrals.

After I get the list of folks I've contacted cleaned up, I'll begin working on voluntary deferrals and getting those moved from reservations to the order banks with priority code 99 (deferred to MY22). On March 15, I will begin moving everyone with post 9/18 timestamps to the order banks.

Thank you for continuing to be responsive and helpful.
As a gearhead millennial dealerships are not exactly my favorite place - and surprisingly the dealers in Metro Detroit have been horrific to work with my entire life.
I mean forget price - some just don't even respond and try to pull the wool over your eyes assuming you are ignorant to auto specs...etc

Thank you to you (and everyone at Stephens) for being courteous humans and running the business like any other business and not some un-touchable holy grail in which rules do not apply.

Coverted my reservation to an order today, very easy and straight forward, had my email from John to verify my order before I even got back from my morning walk. My Ford email was also waiting.
Ordered a 2Dr Badlands, Cactus gray, 2.7L/Auto, upgraded wheels, sound deading, roof rails, tow capability.
My time stamp is 09/18 and did not defer, maybe it will help someone on the allotment fence to get thier Bronco this year.
The invoice price on my build sheet came to within $38 of what I had calculated using information on B6G. All is good with life today.

I spoke with the bosses this morning and let them know, the day you take delivery, we'll be leaving to do shots.

@StephensAutoCenter John, I took a peek on google earth at the dealership and I believe I should be fine. I just wanted to confirm though that Stephen's Auto doesn't pre-install front license plates on their vehicles. Ohio (and from the looks of it West Virginia) no longer requires the front plate and I'd hate to be driving around with predrilled holes in the bumper.

I can attest, our service department won't be workin' on anything they're not being paid for :)
