Sounds like a completely incompetent, and completely rude and untrustworthy place. But, as long as people keep giving them money, don't expect them to change.

This is a weird thing to say. Are big dealers more likely to do a good job?

Lots of the people who want these dealers to go out of business are the same ones keeping them in business.

Fantastic story.

What is the benefit of having an order at a larger dealer?

.

And? Not sure why you are stating what is plain for all to see already. At any rate, if a person owns a dealership, there is an expectation that they take care of their customers through the transition, and not just abandon them. Abandoning regular customers is one thing, but abandonin someone...

Fair point, but I guess I am not talking about stuff that might come true. I am talking more about posts like the one I quoted, that says: ''I believe IF you got the confirmation of order email, you are in line and you may get it soon or not but you will get it.'' Anyone who has paid the...

Sorry, I mean no ill will, but this post is a great example for writing students. And absolute perfect example to use to demonstrate how to remove unnecessary info in the editing process. If you go line by line, and remove any fluff parts that are not helpful to your audience, you would be left...

This is simply not true. First of all, personal anecdotes mean nothing, or else I would just say that we got our 22 two months after ordering from small dealer, AND our three 23s ordered in sept from small dealer are all scheduled for Dec builds. The bottom line is, assuming the dealer did...

Yea, the suppliers could sell more, they just don't want to. /s

You can talk to some large dealers ''orderers'' who were 2nd in line and never got one, and you can talk to some small dealers ''orderers'' who were 20th in line and got 2. Again, dealer size means nothing. Number of allocations to number of orders is what matters. I would much rather be one...

Stress resulting from poor communications as grounds for a lawsuit? I've been in a lot of courtrooms, and this would be something I have yet to come across.

The components, and the raw materials to make the components come from all over the world, just saying.

Get your order number and sales code from dealer. Call ford and check order status.

Yep, agreed. We all have our theories. I am still on team-alloction. Meaning, lots of people are doing a lot of napkin math spreadsheets and charts talking about this and that option and trim, but I think the biggest thing, and the only one that is really dealing with actual known variables, is...

You are asking questions that do not have answers. There are a number of unprecidented supply chain issues going on across the globe now. When will cement prices go down in the midwest? When political issues get resolved so that limestone quarry operations return to a predictable state, when...

Not disagreeing, but keep in mind that the first scheduled 23s have included a lot of stand alone hitches.

1 out of 3 is ''high probability ''?

Dealer size matters not. Ratio of orders to allocations matters.
