Chapman Horsham- Email just received- only 11 allocations!

[Sirjohn]

Just got an email from Ashlie Ryan stating for gave them their MY23 estimated allocations and they only have 11. Of of their writing they had 60 rollovers.

C&P from email-

"We would like to thank you for wanting to order a 23MY Maverick from us...

Between September of 2021 and August of 2022, we delivered or have scheduled over 300 Mavericks...

As you might know, Ford has decided to close the order bank that was open less than 1 week...

Around 5pm last night, we received our MY23 estimated allocation...sadly, Ford estimated a total of 11 for the entire model year for us...we hope that is a mistake and currently trying to get answers as to why delivering over 300 Mavericks only earned us 11 over the same period...

As of today, we had about 60 customers from MY22 who didn't get scheduled and about her 250 who wanted to order from us for MY23...this number was very comfortable for us to handle based on Fords allocation formula and our previous MY sales...

We highly suggest you place back up orders at other dealers in the event Ford stays true to only building us 11 for MY23..."

Sorry just saw this posted to another thread

Has anyone heard about other dealers' allocations yet? I wonder if Tim will be sharing Long McArthur's allocations during his next live stream. I just can't believe that this allocation for Chapman is accurate - it makes no sense.

Think I remember Granger discussing this, its based on how many you sold on this month a year ago or something stupid...which most dealers had very few.

I feel like they might be confusing theie first month allocation with their entire model year allocation. Would be a weird thing to make a mistake about......but would make a lot more sense. 11 for a month is not great, but also not horrible.

the 11 is for dealer stock correct? Why are they saying you should place a backup order with another dealer?

Ahh.....well that is sucky. The numbers don't add up though. So I suspect this chart is going to change. Wonder if they made the chart, or if Ford sent it to them.

I got the same email… started making calls to dealers around me to place some back up orders. Hard to find dealers who will do $0 deposits….

It says "as a reminder, we are not withholding allocation for COVP 23MY."

So does that mean the the 11 allocations is the dealer stock allocation? Maybe the dealership folks misinterpreted their notification from ford and got caught up in Maverick Fever?

Also.....this runs thru next September. Is this an accidental disclosure from Ford that the model year is going to run thru next September? Hmmmmm...... Many claim 2023 will be a short run, only till the spring.

I asked the same question... I think it has to be dealer stock doesn't it? Can't be retail orders.

Well the whole chart is wrong. If you tally up the rows lots of the numbers dont add up correctly.

That's what I'm wondering--if they have approximately 310 orders, including 60 2022 carryovers, it looks like Ford *is* withholding allocation for COVP if they are only building 11 of them.

Not buying it. Maybe because I do not want to.
