To start - we all know the painted MOD top was delayed until the '23 MY some time back, so I'm not here to discuss that particular aspect of this, and am aware getting the MOD top means waiting until MY'23. Let's get that out of the way to hopefully eliminate the inevitable "MOD TOP IS '23 MY!!!" posts....
When I originally converted my reservation to an order back in January, I opted for the black MOD top, amongst other options, which gave me a priority code 99 on the DORA system/my printout to hold off production for the MOD top (At the time, IIRC the MOD top was still considered a late availability option for '21).
Fast forward to now, obviously '21s are out the window, and orders are being converted to '22s in Ford's system, and MOD tops are, of course, '23s regardless. I swung by the dealer pre-'22 order banks opening, and my sales guy said orders would be automatically converted to '22s as-is (unless you want to make changes), and I got an email from Ford yesterday saying my order had been updated to a '22 with just the order date and number, but no details, and I hadn't gone through any process with my sales guy for this, as he mentioned it'd be automatic.
I'm planning on continuing to wait for the MOD top, so my question to those "in the know" - am I correct in assuming that it would work the same way - In that I'd just have a DORA printout of all the same options for a "22", with code 99 to hold production until all options were producible (in this case '23)? And that I otherwise don't need to do anything in order to just stay waiting in line for the '23 with MOD top?
It might be worth having him print out the now "'22" order (with 99 code) for me again just to have in my records that it's still "mine" and confirming the option choices, but otherwise I've figured there's not really any point in me updating anything on the order, as some options could change slightly again for '23.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts/comments.
