Getting scheduled is pretty much equivalent to getting the golden ticket to the Willy Wonka factory at this point.

Yep that's how I felt when I finally got scheduled!

I'm sure I will feel that way too.

I'm feeling very fortunate. Mine shipped yesterday (Feb 26). Hybrid XLT lux, moonroof, SBL, Alto Blue, CP360. (Order confirmation Aug 2nd in Oregon)

That is fantastic! You are fortunate because your hybrid build needs more chips than others who ordered before you. This is an example that luck is dependent on which dealer you happened to use and how many allocations they have. Buyers who ordered from Long McArthur in June and July should be pissed that they keep getting bypassed.

Yes, I am fortunate and
greatly appreciate having mine on the way.

Stopped by South Bay Ford today for a status check. I am finally up to a priority code of 10! Ordered on 10/13/21, Lariat Lux/CP360. The sales manager said they have had 168 orders so far, the longest book in SoCal. They have received something like 15 so far.

That PC code doesn’t really mean much without knowing whether or not all orders at your dealership are set to 10.

They had about ten at a 2, about 15 at 10 and the rest at 19.

My Cactus Gray XL Hybrid w/spray-in bed liner and tonneau cover that I ordered in mid August was built on March 28th and shipped on March 30th. I’m expecting it to arrive at the Dealership late next week, or early the following week.

Did the 2’s get scheduled or are they still in preview due to constraints?

That's less then ten percent which isn't great for an EV state. Dealers can assign retail orders from priority 10-19. I wonder how many fleet orders received a higher priority than you.

I just do not believe that. I live in a little podunk town in Southern MD. i doubt my dealer had much more than 25 orders and he has received more than 10.

The 2’s were shown as “in production”
