I placed my reservation for my Bronco order 09/2020, placed it as an order on 3/2/21. Ford knows tells me it was placed as an order 10/8/21. So I lost my place in line.
You can take solace that there really is no line. The line only exists at your dealership. If they don't have allocation, you won't get built. Place a new order at a dealership with allocation and you'll get built quicker than waiting for your spot in line at your old dealer.
10/8 is the date that your order was reconfigured to a model year 22. You didn't lose your place in line. There are thousands of people with 10/8 order dates already driving broncos.
