Genuinely curious what aspects of the FE at 7000 units would be limited by supply chains?
They will not make all FEs at once. They must balance all models due to supply chains from suppliers.
Agreed, won’t make any sense to split up production and loose line time. There’s plenty of time to get the supplies and produce the units.

Has it been confirmed that ford has made the FE x-plan eligible? I just tweeted at Mike levine and asked.

If it's not eligible I think that's the nail in the coffin for me and I'll switch to another trim.
For what it is worth, my dealer has confirmed they will be honoring X-plan on my FE reservation (along with allowing the stacking of military discount).

That's good, but I'm not sure it's their choice. I too am awaiting this confirmation.

Yeah has Ford stated or implied the FE's would be first made, other than the fact that all FE reservations were obviously very early in the process?

As I recall the webpage gives the idea that it is a limited first year edition with an aggregate of features from the other trims......not that they would be the first built necessarily. Or is geography and all the dealer allocation stuff going to come into play. Or if you order the sliding tray or another late availability accessory on your FE?

Each model will have model specific parts. A large majority of parts will be common. So if FE and WT come with Sasquatch, they are not going to overload the supply chain with Sasquatch parts. Might be too burdensome for supplier to keep up as well as having space in the plant to hold that many parts. Each part has its on space. So if models come down the line semi balanced, it prevents these issues.

All models go down the same line.

I reserved a FE but plan on backing down. Just doesn't seem worth 65k to me.
Send it my way... Will trade you my reservation ?

I am just curious, I really wanted to reserve a FE but as a lot of folks experienced on the first day the Ford site kept crashing, so about 7AM on the following day with FE full, I reserved a WT. Has there been anything posted about if a FE reservation cancels that some of us wanting a FE would have a chance. With all the changes by Ford since Friday I am thinking some FE might drop out. If this question has been addressed elsewhere, please forgive me.

Check with your dealer that has your reservation. There might be a list started with Ford that you can get on. I think alot of folks that reserved one might be switching to other models

All these dealers are saying they will allow x plan... If Ford allows it. Just waiting for something official from Ford corporate (not a dealer) saying that also applies to FE. Some have mentioned the FE might be excluded.

Can't assume anything anymore...
