I just tell it like it is. My order has been delayed time and time again. No, I am not happy and I don't think Ford is doing a good job!Sweet deal. Just get me scheduled when you can Ford. Appreciate the hard work you're doing and sorry for the ones you have to deal with.
With less than 50k in the order bank unscheduled and appears Ford scheduling around 10k each month, it should only take months (barring the strike's impact) to process these orders. I believe the biggest issue is each dealership's allocations.i do have a order number e-mail from Ford but no VIN so far. i already have a '23 Hybrid purchased off the lot that doesnt have everything i would of ordered. but if its gonna be another yr or so and thousands of $$ more i may just keep the one i already have.

It took 18 months before I received a VIN on my 23MY order. Placed a new 24MY order at another dealership (Granger) and my order has already been assigned a VIN this month.
I felt your pain about six months ago when I approached 18 months with no VIN and I had ordered an XLT. But IMHO the issue is the allocations each dealership has been allotted. Has your dealership provided you that number and where your at in their backlog?I just tell it like it is. My order has been delayed time and time again.

If I was in your spot, I would feel exactly the same.Ordered 22, rolled into 23 and 24. Dealer says no problem with allocations.
This is ridiculous. If there was another brand with the same type of vehicle I would never both with Ford.
I'm told by the dealership staff that the highest priority code is 10, which is the priority code of my order.If I was in your spot, I would feel exactly the same.
And why I think Ford has taken a more active role this time to shepherd rollover orders through their system instead of relying on the dealership.
Is your 24MY order at least a Pri 2?
That does not sound like the correct priority for rollover orders. See: 2024 Maverick Orders now being Prioritized contact Ford chat to checkI'm told by the dealership staff that the highest priority code is 10, which is the priority code of my order.
I just got off the phone with the sales fellow.
He said he's going to ask if there's better priority code.

Sounds like your dealership is not keeping up to date - dealers can now set as low as 03, with Ford rolling a properly processed rollover order to 02 (and can also be set by the regoinal rep back to 02 should any changes be made).I'm told by the dealership staff that the highest priority code is 10, which is the priority code of my order.

It came from local dealer, they said that they would send out my order and that there was no down-payment for the truck, cause they are tired of doing refund checks.There is no "line". Who gave you that info, the dealer or Ford?
Scheduling is determined based on a number of factors such as parts availability and dealer allocation.
Also, welcome to the forums!
What is the rank of 10 meaning, just wondering.Sounds like your dealership is not keeping up to date - dealers can now set as low as 03, with Ford rolling a properly processed rollover order to 02 (and can also be set by the regoinal rep back to 02 should any changes be made).
And thanks for the opportunity to join, I have been mostly reading what others say in here, trying to get an idea on what I need to ask and find information.It came from local dealer, they said that they would send out my order and that there was no down-payment for the truck, cause they are tired of doing refund checks.
This thread will help explain the allocations dealerships get:What is the rank of 10 meaning, just wondering.
