I hope I didn't shoot myself in the foot but I changed from OB 2DR Lux 2.7 to 4DR High 2.3 I kept HD front bumper rear locker. I like the larger gas tank and the extra room I'll have but I kind of liked the looks of the 2DR so its a trade off. If I were 40 or 50 (I'm 70) I wouldn't mind waiting :)

Man, you changed a lot. I switched to a soft top and the next week got a build date. I hope it works for you. But I'm really looking forward to trying out the soft top and was considering it already. I only chose MIC because of those connections. I wish they would just include them.

Im at the point I’d sacrifice the hard top but since I have a vin, not sure I can change anything.

Good luck!

I saw this week's MAP build schedule in another thread and it was almost 50/50 hard/soft, but a recent poll here had buyers at around 90/10 hard/soft. Something has to give.

Yes I did change a lot but I also heard the B&O sound system wasn't all that good so there is that. Happy for you that you got a build date. Keeping my fingers crossed. When was your time stamp? Mine is 2nd or third day.

The USOB was 93% MIC in June....and I switched to soft to try to get built; however my fear is that there has been a flood of changes to soft top since then that will still keep me from getting scheduled. I'll probably go back to MIC if it doesn't schedule in Aug, since I'll then miss summer anyway.

My reservation was the morning after the release. I would call that day 2 but some are saying it's day 1 because it is within 24 hours of the release. But I believe the time stamp has taken a back seat to the available parts issues.

You are welcome! Hope you get your build date soon! Sounds like they had that hard top plant going pretty good for a while. I read some of the Ford assembly people went over while the plant was down but left to be back on the line when it started up.

I was right there with you, ready to do the same, and I decided I just want to keep the 2 Dr.....Day 1 Res 9:00 PM. The 4 door would be more practical but I'm buying a SUV with 35" tires and the kids are all grown. I'm trying to wait patiently but its getting old.
