John, would it be right to believe that seeing some of the timestamps on scheduled builds this week, that timestamps are not really important?

For this week? So far, the FE that is scheduled for us is the first FE on our list.

Timestamps do matter.

Here's some new info for everyone considering Ford's efforts at scheduling:

Of the four FEs within our first 17 customers in timestamp order, only one is Leather/Grey seats (which was scheduled yesterday), the other three are Leather/Black and DID NOT GET SCHEDULED yesterday, Ford did not move up any of the other FEs into those slots, so, next week, as Ford told me this morning, I expect ALL remaining slots in our June allotment to go toward standard models.

Per Ford: "..... First Edition is in recognition to the First Model Year, not First in production. Timing for production will vary based on a number of factors including: reservation timestamp, vehicle model and configuration selected and part constraints."

John, did you also get this comm today from Ford?

For whatever reason, I don't get the same updates from Ford that our customers do. I've complained, it's fallen on deaf ears. I have to dig around for info and get it second handed.

That was posted from another dealer, he stated he received it at 1:20pm today. Just trying to see if other dealers also received it.

Hey John! Any word on what might be previewing for Stephens today ahead of emails going out on Thursday?

No update. It appears our weekly "to be scheduled" list is held over from last week. We had two priorities and one FE scheduled last week with the remainder to be scheduled Thursday. They may update later today, but as of right now, it's the same as last week.

Anyone else here get an email today? Reading the following thread it seems reservations are all over the place in regards to trim and timestamps.

https://www.bronco6g.com/forum/threads/4-22-email-group.15726/

I noticed most of my Ford emails come in the afternoon so here is to hoping that all the emails haven't been sent out yet.

Nada here... seeing my build in the confirmations others are posting so... who knows? Doesn’t necessarily feel like timestamp is that important.

I am in NE Ohio. Plenty of dealerships to choose from but the few that would even get back to me all wanted MSRP. I mapped it out and it will be a 2.5 hour drive each way. I checked about renting a car because Stephens will pick you up from a car rental location. That will cost me around $70. I am saving $3016.00. The way my math works it's like SAC saying come on down and we will give you the sasquatch package and roof rack for free. The only catch is 5 hours of drive time and $70 car rental.

Edit: I did not remember correctly. It will be a 3.5 hour drive. So more like seven hours of my time. It's worth it to me. $430 an hour.
plus the drive can be a bonus! a quick road trip never hurt anyone!, how did you figure $3K savings, im also buying at Stephens but havent been able to figure the real savings?
