Thanks for posting. What does balanced out mean?

No longer available. No new orders in the Unscheduled Order Bank will be scheduled that contain the balanced out item. In this case, Shadow Black paint Non-Raptor orders won't be scheduled for the remaining MY'23. If someone was counting on squeezing into the MY'23 production schedule and they ordered SB, then they need to amend their order to a different color.

Thanks for the explanation. When they say MY2023 balanced out on 12/22. Is that essentially saying that's when the MY is done?

OH CRAP! I thought since I have a VIN I was guaranteed to get a truck. Now seeing that cancellation notices for SCHEDULED vehicles will go out ASAP. Ughhhhhh. I'm guessing "IF I get a truck it will be a '23" isn't quite the same as "I will get a truck". That said, I do currently report as "in production" not just scheduled. Am I safe??

Yes.

@Beach_Bum wonder what my chances are of getting my 2dr Heritage that's scheduled for 12/4 now.

Well, the 3-dr, as Ford refers to it, isn't available for MY'24 (yet). Obviously some of the HEs have been delivered this year. But as you can surmise and it shouldn't be a surprise to anyone and that is the modular HT is the bottleneck. If you are scheduled, I hope you don't get a cancellation notice.

You got one "in the pipe" @Leadville ? In production or just scheduled? Indeed, super ominous...

Does this mean my SB BL with a 12/04 build date maybe cancelled?

since ford is deleting all orders not scheduled to be built in 2023 this plant shut down changed things. Now there for sure will be scheduled for 2023 production broncos that won’t get built due to 6 weeks of stoppage. What they’re saying is some people with VINs will be notified of cancellations shortly. They’ll have to reorder for 2024 I’d assume. The question is will there be price protection. Ford has said zero price protection moving forward prior to the strike?

Did we read the same text above in the OP? I read some scheduled orders will be cancelled.

This sounds more accurate than the above.

I would be very surprised if cancelled orders result in any fovorable treatment whatsoever, price protection or anything. Most things outside of price protection such as a place in line or an allocation are up to dealers not FMC.

MY23 production thru 12/22?!?! Cmon now. Let’s get to moving to MY24 please. My 23 isn’t getting picked up…

And for those, like me, having ordered almost a year ago, and locked in to '23 pricing, please continue building absolutely every '23 possible and get me and others our rigs, saving us heaps of $$ in doing so.

So just for clarification, will my scheduled ‘23 2 door Badlands Shadow Black get built or not? I see on that doc it says some orders might get cancelled :-(
