Just got the call to schedule my build date

[Daytona_Bronco]

My Ford dealership @FordPortRichey and fordofportrichey.com #s_cks. They haven't made any attempt to reach out to me. As a day one reservation in my small town gulf coast of Florida I cant imagine there's too many in line ahead of me at my dealership. They are however really good at letting everyone know about there awards on twitter.

Not sure what deal you have at that location. But if your up for a drive Mullinax dealerships in FL are honoring xlpan. They have no dealer fees or any extra fees, its standard at their locations as well .. I'm between going to Mullinax New Smyrna Beach xplan pricing or an out of state below invoice deal in LA .. Mullinax kept in contact with me also FWIW

Correct me if I'm wrong, but my understanding is that the date you finalize and submit your build has nothing to do with your place in line for delivery. All builds received by the cutoff date (in January, for now) should roughly follow the reservation order, not the order of final submission (aside from other factors they may use to optimize the build queue).

Aside from bragging rights, it doesn't make much sense to rush to be first to place your order, especially given so many factors still unknown. I, for one, plan to wait until as late as possible.

Edit: To add to my thoughts, I'd also be a little wary of any dealer pushing me to schedule my build ASAP. Especially given that the timing of opening order banks is apparently not even final. I think it's likely the dealer(s) in question would ask for a deposit at that point, locking you in. Why give up your flexibility for no additional benefit? You won't be getting your Bronco any sooner, whether you place your order today or in early January (again, as long as you make the cutoff for final scheduling). Why not see what changes between now and then? The way things have been going, I wouldn't be at all surprised if there were some potentially deal-breaking (or, at the very least, build-changing) changes to options and offerings before the scheduling cutoff.

Even if you go ahead and place your order early, you can still make changes up until it goes into production.

I got a request to send my build in a couple of weeks ago which I did. I will probably hear about ordering maybe next week. I did make a few minor changes. I am excited to finally order. Too long thinking and speculating. I want the metal!

I called them earlier on and they gave me the run around about their pricing policy and not a peep. I reached out to another dealer to see about transferring dealers twice and not a peep. I guess no one wants my money lol.

My dealer has my build and info on file and we are just waiting for the ordering system to open. Looking forward to it.

My local dealer just responded to my sept 30th email saying they could match the Granger Ford price, and that they noticed I moved my reservation. guess they’re a couple months late and now approx 45K short?
