I ordered cactus grey XLT LUX (without 360) plus I ordered locking lug nuts, tail gate theft retention, carpet less floor mats, splash guards, maybe something else not sure. Ordered 8/27/2021, assigned vin # on 4/28/2022, assigned build date 6/27/2022 on 5/10/2022 sales lady texted and said I had build date. Never changed or inquired anything EXCEPT on 10/26/2021 I got antsy and ordered an XLT (NO 360 NO LUX) plus 4 pin receiver, and do not have vin or build date yet on it. (Yes my kids are calling more frequently just to chat but they never talk about Ford mavericks). EARLY ON I elected to not add or delete anything due to not knowing how some programmer handled the modification of a line in the spread sheet. I would assume that the order date would stay the same but would it maintain the same position in relation to all the ones ordered on that day or perhaps move to the lowest position for that days orders. (Who knows? and it probably doesn't matter).

Almost my exact build- glad you got a date and VIN

On the last week of April I took off the luxury package and co pilot to get my build date sooner like Ford said to do. I added a couple things back on that weren’t constrained. I called Ford today and they said my priority code was high, and that I reset my order by changing it. I ordered on July 31st, 2021 and I really hope I didn’t just push myself back for trying to speed up my order.

I did change my order and very quickly I received a build date and picked up EB XL early April, ordered 11 October 2021.

I have an Ecoboost fwd w/trailer hitch on order since January and was considering adding a moon roof. Does anyone have idea if this would cause further delay, if anyone had done this. Thanks! I haven't called dealer or Ford to inquire.

Moonroofs are often a constraint on vehicles (it was on many BroncoSports last year). I did check the regional and national constraint guide for July production, and the moonroof is not on that list.
So I don't think it is a major constraint, but couldn't promise whether or not that would speed your order up or cause a delay!!!

Thanks appreciate it

I ordered an XLT..iconic silver with tow package. At least I received a confirmation. I'm guessing October or November.

I tried changing my order by removing constrained items and adding a couple of others. My dealer said all changes would be at the 2022 prices and would make my truck more expensive even though I took the more expensive items off and replaced them with cheaper changes. Damned either way. I just left it alone. I guess I'll get it when Ford gets its head out of its ass.

Quite an interesting set of questions and dialogue here. I've been considering changing colors... (ordered hot pepper red but strongly considering Iconic Silver) just not sure I'll love the red after a few years. I really love traditional red but the muted tone of the HPR and how it's on everything from accords to minivans makes it less desirable. I decided against trying to ask for the change as I didn't want to delay. I guess a quick call to Ford CS should clear this up! Cheers
