Oh yeah, the RAV4 Prime was my #1 pick, but I’m not looking to spend $50k on my next car and they’re impossible to find anyway.

Will Maverick rollover be like Bronco rollover?

I was thinking this reading the Rav4 post some of them are selling for up to 65-70k at dealerships cause of markups
Yes, us peasants will just have to hunker down and be happy with what comes down the chuteMany of us (especially later orders like mine) have come to accept the fact that we will probably be rolled over to MY2023. Some make note of the fact that they are nearing "12-month club" status on their Maverick orders. And it's not unreasonable to wonder just how far into the MY23 model year it'll be before my constrained Maverick (Hybrid XLT Lux w/ CP-360) gets scheduled and built.
Even if we rollovers do indeed get scheduling priority, supply chain issues impacting the constrained items aren't going to magically disappear when MY23 production begins on 10/24/22. It stands to reason that some (perhaps a lot of?) bare-bones "new" MY23 orders may indeed be produced and delivered before mine.
My real question is how far this will really drag out. Browsing the Bronco6g forum, it's clear there remains a significant number of MY21 orders (from July 2020!) that remain unscheduled to this day. 700+ days and still waiting for a production date... The Bronco is a much more expensive (and likely much higher margin) vehicle than the Maverick, and yet, some of those orders have waited over two years and still have nothing to show.
Reality is, posters here (and over there as well) can yell up and down about how Ford is losing customers over these issues, but at least for now, they are still selling every one of these they can produce (and for the order-holders who walk away, the dealer is happily selling them to someone else with a healthy ADM tacked on). At our own (micro) level, we can be very frustrated, but I'm coming to realize (especially for a low-margin - possible loss-leader - vehicle like Maverick) that at the macro level Ford is likely unconcerned.
On the bright side, maybe by the time some of our 2021-orderd Mavericks get produced, Top Gun 3 will be in theatres...
My questions are- Where in the que do I go? (I just converted), What exactly (how much) is this "special offer"? What are the differences between the MY 22 and 23?

You definitely haven't converted yet, because the order banks don't open until 2 Aug. Perhaps your dealer put you in some sort of internal queue they're keeping, but until 2 Aug, nothing will be "official" in Ford's system.
As far as the other questions, Ford hasn't officially announced, and from the sound of it, we'll probably not get any meaningful info until very close to early August (and perhaps not even until the 2nd).

The email you received said they recommend you contact your dealer and remove constrained items by July 8th in order to maximize your chances of being scheduled as a 2022. This date makes sense because they are not scheduling this week (week of the 4th). So you can get the changes in before they even look at everyone's orders to see what they can schedule (possibly next week, week of July 11th).
Beyond that, the only other date references in the email are two references to "beginning in August" related to the private offer, and related to the order banks opening back up for 2023.
Unless you got an email different from what the rest of us got
Nope. Same email. I'm sitting in the same mud hole with everybody.

I'm leaning heavily in that direction.
Same, I’m looking seriously already at Toyotas over the past few days, it’s been 9 months, I’m getting fed up at non answers by my dealer. I just called them, they said they would call me back in 10 mins an hour ago… soooo hopefully he has something more than “we don’t know”.
