Has Long McArthur Ford called you today?

I remember Tim saying almost 400 allocations. He also said Ford would "work with them" to make sure every roll over order would be filled.

All Tim said last week was they had more rollovers than allocations.

If I get rolled over to a MY25 I’m going to be really upset

I don’t mind waiting but with it being over a year until I have a chance at getting scheduled, I can’t keep waiting another year

It’s 5:00pm central time and I have not received a call from them to convert my 2023 to 2024. This whole process has been nothing but a headache to try to buy a hybrid Maverick the last two years. With LM still having 500 unscheduled 2023 orders, the chances of my 2024 hybrid order getting allocated and built is slim.

I just got a text from my salesman (Tyler) asking if I wanted to roll my order over to a 24, I guess he forgot our multiple conversation/texts/emails about it . I get it though, probably a stressful day and better safe than sorry….

Not surprised by that at all. More than likely there's probably more high volume dealers in similar situation. Assume there will be quite a few unhappy customers, especially on the hybrid side.

On one of his videos Tim said FMC assured them that all 23 to 24 rollovers would be completed. He seems like a genuinely honest man so I believe him.

I remember him saying Ford is going to try to work with them on all the rollovers. I didn't hear a guarantee because they still didn't know how many legitimate orders they still had. Assuming he isn't putting in orders tomorrow night I'm sure he'll bring it up.

Lol, Sometimes I hear the most optimistic interpretations of what people actually say… thanks for the clarification!

I personally have worked with Tim. I can honestly vouch he is a very honest man and works extremely hard for all of us wether you buy from him or LM! FMC could not of made an order date any worse than to put two of the hottest truck sales on the same ordering date TODAY! Super Duty & Mavericks! So if you’ve got a 23 you better call whatever dealer you ordered from asap to get it rolled over. Reminder the order banks for new 23 orders went closed I believe in 5 days for hybrids and 6 for Ecoboost. Best in getting your trucks, thanks

500 2023 roll overs and 400 2024 allocations tells me all I need to know about Tim and LM

You don't know the backstory. Don't judge what you don't know.

Been on this forum since Aug 2020, much longer than you btw. watched his videos, read his forum comments, what don't I know? I get it, he is a popular guy here but the current facts tell a story.

Dealers are having issues with WBDO and not able to submit orders.

You are right lots of issues. What is WBDO? just curious and hope they get it all straightened out by tomorrow

You're missing lots of information for your conclusion.

Last year Ford didn't tell dealers how many allocations they were getting before order banks closed. When they finally assigned allocations, it was done way differently than in the past, leaving LM with far fewer Mavericks. And when Tim asked their Ford regional rep midway through the order period, the rep told them to keep taking orders.

I'm not a big fan of dealerships in general, but this one's on Ford and their lack of communication.

Thanks for the confirmation of what Tim said about everyone getting built, I thought I heard him say something about it but couldn’t remember exactly (being old can be challenging).
