Oh I will know by the time that Albert contacts me. But my final build at that time may be different than what I emailed him a couple days ago, due to availability issues.

Why change it? Get what you want without having regrets. What does getting a vehicle a few months earlier mean if then you say damn I wish I would’ve ordered this or done that..
Whatever trips your trigger but I just don’t understand this logic..
If I’m ordering a $40-50k vehicle I’m getting it the way I want and leaving less regrets on the table.
Woohoo! We’ll see you in a few months Albert after all our orders are in and the fun begins!

Oh that’s no biggie! I don’t actually know but I’m wondering if the emails are for his helpers to input info to try and expedite the process and he is calling around to verify everything and asked questions. You’ll be able to change anything when he calls!

I don't intend on changing it. But I might if "late availability" for squatch means pushing my delivery into 2023.

They wont know until the order banks close* in March and Ford can calculate allocations based on converted orders.
If you are referring to the "estimate" that Ford sent to dealers, Granger has stated that their estimate is in line with the same percentage that other dealer's were quoted... and based on that percentage, the vast majority of available MY21 Bronco's will go to 1st and 2nd day reservations. (This is also consistent with what other dealers have shared, since there just isn't capacity in MY21 to fulfill all the reservations made in the first 2 days.)
Since allocations are primarily weighted based on *converted* orders, I suspect that Granger will have a higher percentage of allocations to orders compared to other dealerships (total guess on my part based on their apparent marketing strategy targeting "serious" buyers)... but that their allocations will still fall largely short of total orders, since Ford's MY21 production capacity will fall largely short of total orders in general.
*Banks are "closing" per se... but there is a cutoff date for order conversions to be included in the MY21 allocations.

I just don't want my build competing with dealer stock builds. I know Ford said that they would not build dealer stock until the res's are built. But I can see Ford building dealer stock out of available parts if "late availability" on res builds drags on.
Sadly, it's going to happen. We've seen how much control whining big dealers have over Ford already so MY22 res-to-orders will have dealer stock intermingled on the assembly line. Granger and Albert will guide us to the promised land, though.
Every dealer got about 30% of their reservations in initial allocation. Granger offered that October deal so they probably have more late reservations than most dealers but at the end of the day 30% is 30%. It seems like allocation will be updated after orders are placed with one of the largest factors being % of reservations converted to orders. I would imagine Granger will have a higher percentage but that's speculation. There's also the possibility Ford overall has a lot lower conversion percent than they're projecting, in which case allocation may not matter as much.

Will wait for my call, still have a couple of builds to choose from to finalize "the one". Will state though it would be nice to know where I fall out in the initial numbers, Granger should have a high conversion rate but if I'm not close to a '21 delivery then my '22 build could be completly different once new options are disclosed so no need to sweat the details until then.

To Squatch or Not To Squach - that is the question!
@Granger Ford @Zach@Granger
Have you gotten an update on how to handle those wanting options that are now MY22?
