Sure thing. It's just "interesting" to have until March 18th to convert to an order, yet be "pressured" by your dealer to convert now ... when it is of zero benefit to you (the consumer).
Feels shady. I'm not saying that it is, but it feels that way. Why give March 18th if Ford wants them...

"Sorry if that seemed confusing. What I meant is I would convert your reservation over to our order bank. Not move it anywhere else, and if you want to wait for a 2022 we can wait to submit anything until you are ready. Ford is just asking dealers to convert...

I asked about ADM and X-Plan. That's when the responses stopped coming. hahahaha....

The whole concept of Jeeps bending in half makes me LOL... that's how bad Jeep dropped the ball on that, yet... making a 4 door off-road SUV in 2020...
I hate to say it, but if I want a "top-off" vehicle, as it stands, I will not be ordering my reserved Badlands 4dr, but will be getting a Gladiator - hopefully with a diesel.
