Let the jockeying begin. And they're off!Instead talking to your dealer about price, your first question probably should be:
"What's the reservation timestamp of your 30th percentile reservation?"
One day off from getting your Bronco!July 16
You are describing dealer lot vs ordering. The plain burger doesn’t exist yet. Everyone is reserving a burger through Burger King’s centralized burger reservation system and some other guy who ordered the same burger as you, but definitely after you, gets his burger before you because he selected a different restaurant to pick up his burger. You happen to look outside at the street and he drives by in his new Bronco and he is eating his tasty burger and you think ”Damn! That looks good! That’s exactly what I ordered! I wish I was that guy!” And you could have been had you selected a different Burger King. But you aren’t that guy. You are hungry and waiting.I went to Burger King one time. I put my order in - I made special requests like no pickles and mustard. The guy behind me got a basic burger and fries. You know what? He got his meal before me. Sure, I thought to myself, "Damn, I was in line first. Where is mine?" Then I got mine. It was exactly what I wanted. I saw the other guy eating his. He got it first. I got what I wanted. I enjoyed it and never thought twice about his burger...
We can't play "It's not fair" with so many unknowns. I am excited to see my first Bronco in the neighborhood. I don't care if its mine as long as I know mine is coming - just the way I ordered it.
I’m with you - I’m July 19 and was hopeful for a summer delivery. Now not optimistic.July 16
And THISI hope you guys understand this is like a two lane traffic jam. You can hop in the other lane hoping that you’ll get through it faster, but at the end of the day you have no idea what the obstacle is that’s causing the jam, and the lane you were in could speed up as soon as you leave it. Just keep your res where it’s at and wait until your order gets pulled. Really not worth stressing over but again that’s just my opinion.
Sum up the situation(s) perfectly.I went to Burger King one time. I put my order in - I made special requests like no pickles and mustard. The guy behind me got a basic burger and fries. You know what? He got his meal before me. Sure, I thought to myself, "Damn, I was in line first. Where is mine?" Then I got mine. It was exactly what I wanted. I saw the other guy eating his.
