Well, we know SOME of the options that will be available that aren’t now because they were on the 2021 build sheet and Ford confirmed these both directly to the customers and through their dealer network (mainly Mod Top and Duel Top). I’ll take those as a given since Ford is clearly obligated to...

Yeah, the catch here is that options and packages could change. So lux package could have a new feature included... thus the OLD lux is technically not equivalent to NEW lux... or they leave out features for the lux and create the limited package. Now your lux package doesn’t have what you want...

I’m pretty sure my dealer knows his allocation. If I’ve been reading correctly, all dealers should have that information by now. What we didn’t get into is how many of those ahead of me either have a mic top or switched to get a MY21. That being said, I’m starting to feel like something’s not...

I got one from my dealer. He also laid out the allocation. I’m like #120 at the dealership, which is 50 units outside of their MY21 allocation. He was pretty open that he didn’t think the change to a mic would get me into a MY21 but felt pretty confident that I would get a 22 in a reasonable...

Last time I was in the market for a car, I originally had my heart set on a Tacoma Limited. Everyone said the v6 was great so I ordered one and took it for an overnight. It felt completely underpowered to the point where I felt like I was overworking the engine on the highway. Ended up walking...

Although I don't qualify "asking MSRP" or more as shady, I like the idea of holding a dealer's feet to the fire through social media. Why should dealers be immune to criticism any more than anyone else? Maybe it's an unfortunate reality we all live with. But, it's the reality nonetheless and If...

Hmm. How much was your deposit with the dealer? I mean, exactly how much skin do you have in this game?

The whole reservation system is quite convoluted, especially given their model which is dependent on a network of independent dealers. I think they want to be like Tesla (and Apple) but the problem is that they don't have the capabilities to deal directly with the consumer. Their dealer network...

As a late reservation holder, I was expecting to be pushed to a 22 model anyway. What's not at all clear to me is IF I will be able to change my order after April 8th to change options based on 22 offerings. And, when will all these 22's start rolling out anyway? Honestly, if we're sitting...

Same. And I'm okay with that as long as I can still get can get the car in a reasonable timeframe. Now, if my order drags out more than 9 months or so and I'm seeing these things on the lot, I'm gonna want it back. I also think that orders with money down should be given some weight. I can see...

I posted a thread about this as well. My order was placed on the 12th but I didn't get a confirmation until the 18th. Yesterday, Ford confirmed that the order was placed on the 12th and it was under my reservation. So, in my case, it seems that it took six days to actually get a confirmation...

Thank you (and everyone) for your input. Ironically, I got the an email from Ford and another from the dealer less than an hour after my original post. Still didn't see the update on the website. On your note, I called Ford and they confirmed that my reservation had been converted and all is...

I swore I would never buy another American car about 10 years ago after my rounds with Tahoes and Suburbans. I typically go out of my way to buy American made. But, honestly, the big US brands weren't even close to competing with those coming out of Asia and Europe. US automakers had become far...

Can anyone tell me if this is common. I paid a $1000 to my dealer who claims he placed the order on the 12th. He even sent me a screenshot of the order. However, it's now the 18th and I'm still not seeing an update on my reservation indicating that an order was placed. Has anyone else...

Agreed. I went with this interior and hoped they would ditch the neon blue stitching and accents. Looks like it was designed for a toddler.

I personally like having a brush guard. I had one on my 98 Discovery and it was nice when people would back into me while parallel parking. I've also bumped into a sign post or two in parking lots with my Tundra in the seven years that I've had it. Seems the Bronco version does little on the...

That analogy doesn't work either. Sure number #8 goes in first. But, if you get to the door and say "no thanks, I like tomorrow's menu better". You would need to make a new reservation for the next evening. Doesn't really matter what the chefs are doing as they are just cooking orders in the...

I'm not sure how Ford sees it. But an argument could be made that, if one chooses not to place the order during the first window, that person shouldn't be able to just cherry pick a year and get priority over those that actually put money down to place an order, especially if the B&P was...
