Counterpoint: couldn’t this be a bad thing for some people who were planning on perhaps changing something on their order prior to being assigned a VIN?

This actually kinda makes no sense. The “priority” flag has the most utility with an older reservation. Their first time stamp was already... “priority.”
Thay could actually market the hell out of priority orders if they wanted. Win an opportunity to buy a $50k truck.

Not quite sure what you are saying. He took his reservation holder that was the earliest he had on 7/13 and gave his Rep that persons order number. Is that not the most just way to do it in your eyes?

No, the priority flag was specifically implemented to change the order of the reservations at your dealership. Flagging the earliest timestamp as priority accomplishes basically nothing within your own customers at your dealership.

Still not sure I understand you but it doesn't matter. One lucky person at my dealers lot is getting there Bronco much earlier is all I know. Good for them.

Are they? If they already had a very early timestamp, this likely did nearly nothing to the timeline in which they’ll get their bronco, which is my point. The dealership can put the priority flag on any order. If they put it on an order that’s already near the top, they’ve essentially gotten 0 utility out of the flag. If they put it on someone further down the line, they get days or weeks or months of value out of the flag.

Thanks ,when I’m in my Ford account under details it comes up a v6 ,so I’m not too worried
Interesting! They must be changing the app / website a bit, which is a good thing. When I look at my current Ford vehicle in the Ford app or on the website, I don't get that level of detail - just oil usage, VIN, help articles, recall / service / sync update info, and that sort of thing. More info is a good change.

I get calls about my vehicle, almost daily... damn extended warranty crap. Wish I could torture those folks like they do me.
I ask them, “which car are you calling about, I have several.” They get pissy and hang up on me. Dicks.

I cannot get my dealer to tell me their allocation or where I fall in it. It’s pissing me off. All I hear is “ you have a really low reservation number and date”. YEAH I F’ING KNOW THAT! That’s why I’m asking.
Same here except I’m not a very early res. Must be a MN thing...
