interesting. My build is almost identical, except my dealer applied the high package and Lux was “greyed out” and “not clickable“ when they built and submitted my order.
Ah. My dealership called me with the same issue today. He said they were trying to put in a stock order, but the options might become available tomorrow. Hope you get built!
So, to understand correctly, the order system will only accept x orders, based on allocation, from each dealership? I feel if Ford has a pre-determined number before they shut, they must be able to input into the order system how many orders each dealership is able to input, otherwise it would...
My assumption is the first 20 will be acknowledged, the rest will just remain unscheduled. Perhaps people in the first 20 that are riddled with constraints might be bumped for one or more of the other 10 they can build.
I'm sure some dealers already have a massive pile of "pre-orders" ready to go in at 4pm on Monday.
Any word once Monday is said and done when they plan to start scheduling new orders? I'm guessing they'll be thrown into the mix of existing orders.
My dealer just called me as I was replying to this post.
Also reiterated the 3/27 date and 24 hour window. Only thing you can't order is Base, Everglades, Manual Trans, Badlands wheel. Lux, MIC, Sas all seem to still be on the table.
Also, had a refundable $100 deposit down since last year...
The meeting with Ford is supposedly today, though I'd be surprised if information is already available. I would've thought later today/tomorrow before stuff starts trickling through.
Yeesh. That's basically the order verbatim that I want. I'm willing to compromise on the Lux package and maybe go to High. Hard top might be a deal breaker. I'll have to wait and see what my dealer tells me after the meeting tomorrow.
It's also worth pointing out that just because order banks...
I'm for sure interested what ends up happening. My spec'd out order has one of those constraints on it. While I've not been waiting near the amount of time that some people on this board have, I'm only willing to compromise so much.
FWIW, my dealer just called me and told me the following:
Banks slated to open 3/27. It is currently not known what restrictions, if any, will be placed on retail orders. He said the three deadly sins will probably still be a constraint, but he could be wrong and they won't know until...
Oh god. If that’s the case you’d think Ford would have someone proof read their stuff. My dealer has been silent. I don’t have an order, just a deposit for an order to be placed once the tentative banks reopen. I’ll give them until Feb then it’s time to start looking at other brands.
