Maverick Scheduling This Week (9/14/23) for Production Weeks 11/06-11/27

[Waterick]

4 weeks of production so hopefully 12K or more will get scheduled.

I don't think 16k is out of the realm of possibilities.

Thinking positive

How many roll overs are there, I'm wondering. And the bigger question is, does my dealer have any allocations?

Let’s make it 12,001 to fit mine in

I don't think 16k is out of the realm of possibilities.

Or 16,001

How would we know if we are previewing? Dealers ain’t lifting a finger to find out that info for us.

If Ford previews your order on Wednesday, you have a pretty good chance of getting scheduled on Thursday. At least from what I've noticed. Good luck to all, especially carryovers.

Sometimes Ford chat, my dealer (sales manager) went right in system and readily told me when I stopped by. I didn't even ask. They (Ford) were previewing, next day I got scheduled.

How do you know if you're previewing? Is this something I talk to my dealer about or is it just a notification?

You can ask your dealer but they are under no obligation to tell you. Previewing doesn't guarantee that an order will be picked up and I'm sure many dealers don't want to divulge information that leads to false expectations.

Just waiting for the Thursday email is the best course of action IMO.

I mean is there something the dealer *does* that improves my scheduling opportunity?

Or is it just that they can *tell* me something if they want to?

The dealer can't do anything to help your chances when it comes to previewing.

Previewing just means that Ford took a look through all of those dealer's orders looking for something that would fit within their build schedule. They do previewing on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and often times, but not all the time, if your order gets previewed both days that means that it fits the criteria of what Ford is looking for.

My dealer looked at my preview order last time I called then sent it to me. First line had this...

Preview Order xyz - xyz - SuperCrew FWD - XL : Order Summary Time of Preview: 08/24/2023 14:47:01 Receipt: 7/18/2023

Looks like I was previewed right before last scheduling bit did not receive a build date.

What (ilikebike) said seems pretty good advice. Just sit tight and wait for an E-mail on Thursday. Not much your dealer can change at this point to get you picked and even if preview was a good indicator you'll be built (which its not in my experience) then do you really want to be teased by knowing a day ahead of time that you're almost picked but not officially?

That's like knowing the day before the lottery that you got 2 numbers right but not the rest. Dont go spending your $$$ based on that.

We're all just anxious and hoping beyond hope, but its just another straw to grasp. Not what we want it to be.

First time I've ever been told to "come back later" trying to check status on Ford chat.

I have 2 ordered XL and xlt. No confirmation or 45 day emails. Ford told me there's a way of entering the order so they get emails, basically hijack yours to keep you in the dark.

They meaning the dealer? I'd assume they can just enter their E-mail instead of yours as the customer order is placed.

Will be nice when ford goes direct to customer. Seems like this will be inevitable with all current competition. Dealers will adapt to be full service centers & showrooms or die. Perhaps there will be a golden age, such as the one that just ended with streaming, as business models are redefined. Inevitably that will degrade as well.

I never received a email on my 24 rollover order but I stopped
by my dealer and she pulled it up. Say's my 24 EcoBoost Tremor
will be built on the week of Oct 16th. I now have the VIN number
so I went on the Ford site to check status https://shop.ford.com/vehicleordertracking?
and there it was. You need VIN and customer order number to check status..
