I wouldn't add it right now since you are previewing. If you get a production date, then I'd see if your dealer can add it after the fact. It's incredibly hard to get a production date, and there are thousands of others that wish their order was previewing like yours is. I wouldn't change anything while previewing unless you are ok with waiting weeks and/or months to get to the previewing stage again. Not to mention, the tow package was a constraint for a long time.

Most of the time, you cannot change anything about your order once you get a production date and a VIN, but it's possible (though I do not recommend it). I know from experience that it can be done.

Around a month or so ago, my dealer never code 99'd my order after I had requested them to, and I randomly got a build date email. Normally I'd have been excited about this, but I was kind of frustrated because I had only recently decided that I wanted to add the Sasquatch package, which was not on my order. The dealer made a request to Ford (after I received my VIN and production date), and the Sasquatch package was successfully added to my build about a week later. So, in your case, it's worth a try.

Although, I think Ford may have been accommodating because of my situation, and because that feature didn't affect any characters of the VIN (that I know of).
You seem knowledgeable about previewing sooo in that case, I was previewing last week, then previewing again yesterday morning. What exactly does that mean? I have no constraints on my build.

..And I got scheduled the week of 6/13/22. (taking tow off probably had no affect on my build date, as you've mentioned we have identical builds.)

Unfortunately I dont have the back door link because I was not a reservation holder. My dealer sent a screen shot showing a "P" by my order this morning in WBDO, I haven't heard anything since. I'm am at work just stressing!!

I'm guessing the "unicorn braking module" will eventually become available or one will be salvaged from a "totaled" Bronco. Then with enough study, it should plug into the harness and be re-programable. To say you can never have this feature after the vehicle leaves the assembly line seems a bit strong. My uncle always said, with enough money and time you can do anything.
