Seeing a lot of posts regarding ordering being CLOSED. Is this the case even if dealer has an un-sold allocation?

I'd call the dealer and find out. Many dealers may not want to give up an allocation ast MSRP.

The question isn't about pricing - that's a whole 'nother topic! I've seen threads where folks have mentioned that no more orders are being taken. Just waiting for the dealer experts to chime in.

Ford has their order banks closed, dealer having allocation slots doesn't matter
That's not accurate at all.
If a dealer has an unclaimed allocation they were going to order for a floor unit they can order to your spec and you can purchase when it arrives.

There is absolutely no guarantee a stock unit gets selected, and stock units are heavily constrained to certain options. I do not recommend trying this at all, especially because there is nothing tying you to this vehicle.
There is no guarantee any unit gets selected. A dealership HAVING an allocation is worlds farther than a dealership taking a Raptor order and 99ing it because they can't build it. Assuming they don't want any money up front there is no risk at this.
Also in the next round I'm willing to bet we see a few of these non GT orders get selected.
I'm know firsthand people who are getting a dealer allocation built to their specs. The customer isn't placing the direct order, the dealership is.
Who gets selected for build, or what not is up in the air. I'm only saying what I'm saying here because I know people who got Priority Code 19 without a GT and also without an Order.
This "un-sold allocation" sounds suspicious and a lot like "my dealer said."
Are you meaning he has an abandoned order of some sorts? Or did you somehow find the only Ford dealership in the US that has more allocations than orders? Or, and I think this is the most likely scenario, they have a reservation they were supposed to cancel and instead they will order it to the OP's specs.
Edit. I now see that this is in the BRaptor forum so that adds some relevant context and makes sense how a dealer could have an un-sold BRaptor allocaiton.

If folks want to check, feel free. Pugmire Ford in Carrollton ga claims to have two unsold allocations. they initially wanted 35k adm but after reminding them of my purchase history they did me a big solid and dropped it to 25k

I thought that the order banks closed back about a month ago for any new order, GT or otherwise. I remember a deadline that we had to have our orders in by and if you missed it, you were SOL. Maybe I misunderstood the deadline though.
