Pretty sure we all knew this was going on. The real early time stamp is a 4 door Soft top with a 2.3

This is why I switched my Lightning order to a smaller dealer
Here’s my highly experienced opinion on how this probably works In simple terms with two really BIG questions at the end.
Dealer A has 10 allocations per month and 100 orders tied to reservations, plus 50 stock orders they’ve placed. Ford schedules this week and looks at Dealer A’s reservations in order of time stamp until they find a build-able order with all material projected to be available prior to the build. This build-able order could be tied to a reservation or for stock.
The BIG questions are;
1) Does Ford scheduling then go on to Dealer B, then C and so on, before scheduling Dealer A’s next Bronco or does Ford complete all of Dealer A’s 10 allocations for that month before moving on.
2) The second question is how Ford determines which dealer is Dealer A, B, etc and if this order changes week to week based on some randomness or dealer status.

I could’ve just posted this rather than what I posted above. Pretty much explains it just as well!

From the right dealer.The real early time stamp is a 4 door Soft top with a 2.3
at this point you can't do anything but laugh.
I mean I saw on a FB thread that ford is sending out "bronco calendars" to people who have not received their orders.
to me, this is completely hilarious.
At the end of the day, we will never know. We know what they decide to tell us.

517 days for me and same for me no build date. Weekly heart break every Thursday when I don't receive an Email from Ford. At this rate I will either have to get a new liver or quit drinking!

I didn't know there would be story questions on the quiz.
Simple answer is that Dealer A has 10 allocations for the month. They don't have any stock orders yet. First they look at the reservations. If the first 10 reservations can be built they will get built. If only 8 can be built due to constraints then the remaining 2 will stock orders.
Dealer B doesn't matter.
Before the pitchforks and torches come out, just understand that this is feedback from one dealer. I'm not saying that OP is being misled or anything. Just that there are a number of variables and interpretations that can occur at any level of the chain.
