Build week 1/8/2024. First mod will be (not necessarily in order) tailgate lettering, 1.5 inch Leveling kit, fender flares, ceramic window coating, painted brake calipers, probably remove the DIBL I didnt want and do spray on, and $150 at Muslogy Auto for interior stuff. Thanks in advance.

🕺 Dealer (We can talk more about that after the papers are signed and its in my driveway)
Super excited. Now hang in there 14 yr old Ranger...
Or they could allow rollovers to order from a different dealer and still get the private offer at this point. I didn't know anything about allocations when I started this process over 2 years ago. Now I've got myself stuck in a no man's land pretending the MY25's will be worth the wait.
Big Ford likes us to be mad at the dealers and scream get rid of them. They would love to cut out the middleman and keep more to themselves. (See Tesla.) Be careful what we wish for. You think it is a pain getting warranty work or issues addressed now, wait until we have to deal directly with...
Math is the 2 hardest things....
My math says they can build 35,000 hybrids and 15,000 XL's. If only 22,000 of us are rollovers and getting built first, even if every single one is a hybrid and less than 68% are XL, we are good.
(As long as one of them is my hybrid XLT)
