According to my reservation numbers, there will be 340,000 broncos built between my first reservation on day 1 and my Granger reservation on Oct. 1. ?
Okay, let me put on my Mathematics Hat:::

If we are x-plan eligible then we could have a choice of which offer to use? Even though the 2k is most likely the better of the 2.
My spreadsheet examples let you answer the question by trim.
I've updated my pricing spreadsheet to v10 to show the Granger Ford Oct 2020 $2,000 below invoice special (light green shaded cells), here is the sticky thread.

I want to thank everyone for there participation starting last night and continuing on this morning. Albert will be sorting through these throughout today and into tomorrow. We are humbled by the response and will do our best to keep everyone informed on what is going on and questions that have popped up.

To answer the first question, the reservations are based on the Eastern time zone. so startin at 12:00 EST or for us in Iowa 11:00 p.m. central, is when the timestamped offers will be counted towards the $2000 off invoice.

Boom! October reservation made.

I am not undecided on getting a Bronco, but I am undecided on how to get the Bronco.

I have an original 7/16/20 reservation as well, and will cancel one of them based on what we learn from B&P and what we are willing to wait / not wait for.

Thank you Granger Motors for a good incentive to to make new reservations and for allowing us to take a strategic approach as I am taking.

Thing is...they can't rule on intent, not without risking a public relations disaster. While I believe JMadsen put in his reservation on the First (Iowa time), it would have to be determined how Ford timestamp is applied (is it based on reported time zones on the PC, Detroit time no matter what time zone, something else?). There were always going to be people trying to get an edge and get in front of the other people they assumed were going to rush in on 10/1 at zero o'clock in the morning . Changing local settings on zones to fool it into getting in 55 minutes before other people to cheat your way to the front of the October line? If you think someone didn't try that, or just going two minutes early to gain an edge (and claiming the time stamp is wrong, but you know... intent), then you don't know human nature. Again, I have no reason to doubt JMadsen, and I don't, but what is Granger supposed to do with people who time stamped on 10/1? Tell them they are behind someone (or 20 someones, where do you draw the line on those who didn't wait for the 'go' signal before starting the race?) those who stamped nearly an hour before the race started because of intent? Why not two hours, or a day?

Again, just as an example, I actually do believe JM; When seeing the time stamp was off, did he go back in an get another reservation with a 10/1 date or just start telling the story about how he swears he was following the rules and it was a mysterious Ford timestamp issue. (which I believe we can all believe), except maybe the people who have to wait longer because they got timestamped on 10/1 at 0002 hours.

Even if motives and timing is completely pure and above board for everyone, how can you penalize those people who have an October stamp by accommodating someone who doesn't?

I really don't see how Granger can do anything but rely on the stamp and offer their original $1000/$1300 deal to those who timestamped a month before or a second before an official Ford timestamp of 10/1/20.

edit;spelling
Lol you’re right. Haha

I just meant if his time stamp said 12am est like everyone else’s. Even though. He was in PST.

I’ll edit my original post . So I don’t upset anyone who may be easily offended by my post

You’re welcome and thanks for the great offer and clarity! If I was dealing with a local dealer I might be so turned off I would just cancel the purchase all together. Or I would be stuck paying 4K+ more for the same vehicle.
