Does this actually mean anything or just an idea? A tease?
I just converted mine (on 10/18) with a reservation date of 8/01/20 and got the same email. 2-door wildtrack. My dealer sent the order incorrectly as a 4-door, and I caught immediately. I called ford to confirm they did actually update the order. That was confirmed, and the rep said I basically jump the line or any non- VIN issued orders after my reservation timestamp. That said, I have no idea what the timeline on when I would get a VIN or what that means. She said there’s a chance I could have it by the end of the first quarter, but I would be shocked. Curious if anyone else knows more on that?Dang I have a real order now so this is exciting. I even got the email from Ford saying I am an early 22 order. What does that even mean?
The ford rep said “oh wow you have an original reservation. This is good because you jump ahead of anyone with a later reservation date. Order date doesn’t mean anything” (my reservation is category number 101 or something and ford is currently filling 112s…not sure what this means either). She said anyone with a later timestamp on their reservation without a VIN/scheduled build would be behind mine.Please expand on the discussion about "jumping the line" since I've never seen that mentioned anywhere else.
Are you 2-door or 4-door? She did say 4-doors are heavily delayed and not looking good currently, but the expectation is 2-doors will roll out quick. When she said as early as late Feb delivery with my reservation date. And I said “I was hoping by June, so that’s encouraging.” She then said, I would expect it well before that based on the current information I have. My reservation is #1014xxxx. Again, no idea what this means.Theoretically, parts constraints aside (and possibly dealer allocations...) they have said all along (if you choose to believe them) that orders would be built generally by Reservation order, not necessarily order number. Of course if early reservation holders didn't place an order, and/or if they 99'd it to hold off for new possible options, they aren't in the game. Now with MY22 opening up, possibly a lot of those res holders are back in the mix again...(I'm 7/19/20 reservation #1030xxxx).
Interesting...I wonder what is up with the 4-doors? Are they just playing catch up since they seemed to be delayed a lot the last go around?Are you 2-door or 4-door?

She did it’s mainly the hardtops. Fast track your order with a soft top. I know that’s not new info, but just what she said. Hard tops are still an issue.Interesting...I wonder what is up with the 4-doors? Are they just playing catch up since they seemed to be delayed a lot the last go around?
Received same email from Ford 10/21, next stop scheduling 10/28, if I'm selected.Wow. Haven't heard anyone else getting that info. Sounds accurate, though. Pretty sure every soft top is going to be an early 22 order.
That's promising! I've got a 7/13/20 reservation #10115xxx. 2 door Badlands, Left for Dead MY22 order in. But it all depends on the commodity constraints. I'm hopeful, but I won't get my hopes up too high.Are you 2-door or 4-door? She did say 4-doors are heavily delayed and not looking good currently, but the expectation is 2-doors will roll out quick.

When did you convert to order?That's promising! I've got a 7/13/20 reservation #10115xxx. 2 door Badlands, Left for Dead MY22 order in. But it all depends on the commodity constraints. I'm hopeful, but I won't get my hopes up too high.
My, MY21 order was put in on 1/20/21. My, MY22 order was put in on 10/14/21. I got DORA's with priority code 10 on both orders. # 3 at my Dealer after their two Priority Orders. I guess a 2 Door MIC top Badlands with just about all the "Deadlies" just wasn't going to get built?When did you convert to order?
