How did you go about unloading a lease so early? You pay some of that out of the revenue generated from the sale or?
Call leasing company (in my case Chrysler Cap) and find out 1) what buyout it as of that day and 2) if there is a penalty fee (Chrys Cap does not have fee). It's contracted price on a matrix by day so they have to adhere to the number as I understand. Do carmax offer online, or head to your local one (or carvana which was around the same number - there are others too Shift but they offered only 30k - though carvana and shift will come pick up the car at your house which is dope.). In the end you don't have to cut a check or anything - show up with both keys, your registration and they call chrys cal and arrange to do the buyout on your behalf and cut you a check for the difference. Then carmax marks up your car by another 3-4k to sell on their lot. It's remarkably easy - in and out in under an hour if you are the first person in line (show up hour early).

edit - the reason this is a bubble is the suez canal, chip shortage etc - less new cars avail, driving price of used cars higher. Also people who didn't get a new lease or car during pandemic for all sorts of reasons are now looking to get a car again - demand up. supply down.

I’m in the same boat but I’m hearing that a day or two after the print date on the bottom of the window sticker will reveal the truth. I can’t stop myself from checking every 15-20 minutes.
d this morning it shows “6/29 in production” maybe it’s for real?! 🙏🏻

FYI (Maybe this will help someone):

Original build date was 6/14. I was emailed and changed to 6/28. I emailed my rep two weeks ago and he said that I was scheduled for 7/8 build date. Last monday (6/21) got the email from ford. I then checked immediately and it said "In production". So who TF knows eh?

Did you get any updates since then? What does window sticker show?

Just called Ford, and they said my build date is 7/13. Still grateful, but got amped thinking it would come earlier. I am sure it will be delivered during the one week I am out of town. The first vacation I’ve had since Thanksgiving. Unless it arrives just in time, by 7/16. Fingers crossed.

Oh, shit! According to the window sticker, 7/13 is my blend date, not build date.

Yes, I am talking to myself in this.

Hey, I'm listening and I'm stoked for you! I think blend date and build date are more or less the same thing, from what I've read here. Mine is tomorrow so hopefully I can answer that for you soon!

Yes! Hoping hard that somehow it is delivered 7/16 in time for my trip. Probably not, but I’ve been watching the timelines of those here who have received theirs, so i know it’s possible: Wish I’d had it last weekend to drive my kids to Camp Ozark in Arkansas!
