It allows them to schedule another big group of new orders, many of which don't get the special offer.I don't know what Ford is waiting for. No reason to keep our "P99" orders locked that I could imagine. We need time to get our dealers to make our changes, and that doesn't push Ford into the next step of making them P2s until they are ready to do so.
Giving people time to adjust their orders is a good thing, especially with the difficulty some are having with their dealers. Keeping the orders locked all week doesn't seem to serve much of a good purpose to me.
Code 10 just means it's the highest priority of your dealers allocations, they are the ones that put it at 10, when it's chosen, Ford will move it to a 1-9.This is what my dealer wrote me when I asked what Priority Code 10 means. Based on what I've read on this forum this is a lie.
"Priority Code 10 means that the Maverick build was picked up but has been cancelled before production despite being serialized.
Priority 10 does not mean this.I appreciate the disappointment. Should you choose to keep your order in place you will be receiving a 2024 Maverick, not a 2023."
This would not be surprisingI believe the truck (Hybrid 2022) I ordered is going to get built as a 2023 and the dealer will then sell it for thousands above MSRP, as they are doing with other Mavericks.
Unless your dealer is thinking yours will not get built because all of their allegations have been scheduled, they, at best, have no idea how their ordering system works, or at worst, are lying to you. Your email is still attached to the build, so Ford will let you know directly if it gets chosen, they won't be able to get it in without you knowing as long as Ford has your correct email.First time "buying" a Ford (I'm cancelling the deal, not waiting until 2024 with no vehicle and not willing to find something to bridge the gap), and definitely the last time I'll consider Ford. Too bad, really looks like a great vehicle but this leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
Best of luck to all of you sticking it out.
