I’ve never seen the 15th announced as the day. Or a Thursday to open and order bank. So I’ll vote no.
I guess it was always rumour. I think my dealer said the 15th but he's always been behind and is just buying into the hype.
He emailed me yesterday that I'm scheduled for the 31st of October but that might be a moving target too.

That was redundant office worker positions eliminated resulting from the splitting of the company. They're actually INCREASING the Blue Collar workforce so they can increase output at the factories. Most large corporations I ever worked at were way overstaffed with degreed people in their Horizontal organization management structure. Too many paper pushers and too few worker bees.
Salaried Management level associates are easier to replace than skilled workers and assemblers, you also do not have to deal with unions.

I won't say where I heard this, but I have from a reliable source that "something" is happening around noon on the 15th that it would be worthwhile being available for. Is that noon Eastern? Probably.
I am probably not supposed to let this out, but when I was on the Farley’s yacht the other day, he finally realized how wise I am and said he and Ford have come to their senses and will only make Mavericks in Velocity Blue going forward.

I hope they didn’t fire the gals that were suppose to buy the parts.

That schedule says "Fleet" in the left corner
So what. Do you have inside info that shows Fleet orders have to be on different days from retail orders.

Tim @fordvideoguy has also stated that the 15th is the most probably date that he has heard.

Next tuesday on his live stream i'm sure the date we be reaffirmed as the 15th.

I missed Tims @fordvideoguy show on Thursday, but I think he has been saying mid-September and that Ford has not specified September 15 as the official date. And don’t even get him started when Ford gives them Order Guides for new year models lol.
The word from the Brand Manager on Friday says that they are still progressing towards a mid September order bank opening. Oh, ordering is being done through the dealer not in the form of a reservation like last year. Been getting more rumors about that and wanted it verified that I was correct.

I have NOT seen anything that changes the sept. 15 order banks to be open for EVERYBODY.... November 24 is production start date for the Sept. 15 orders
I sure hope you are right!
