How? When the following happens.

Two customers have reservations for exactly the same build, but through two different dealers.

Customer A’s (your’s) reservation is ahead of Customer B’s by 1000 reservations.

Customer A‘s reservation comes up in the order system and Ford looks at the associated build order and determines there are no commodity issues and can be built. It then looks at the allocation status of the associated dealer and finds that dealer has no allocations left. The reservation is not converted and not build.

A week later Customer B’s reservation comes up and his order is also determined to have no commodity issues and can be built. This time the dealer has a remaining allocation open and the reservation is converted to an order then goes to be built.

Customer B gets his Bronco, Customer A (you) don’t.

Allocations shouldn’t be used. Build sequence should be by reservation number and product availability. “Dealership Allocations” is a Ford/Dealership internal issue, and should be transparent to customers.

Life moves on regardless. It's just a car.

Why is everyone so worried about being first? The feeling will only last a very short time anyway. Do you know how fast a year goes by when you're over 30 years old? It's very quick.

P. S. I have a 2009 Challenger that still gets thumbs up from people. So focus on making your Bronco cool, not early.

Including price increase!!
If you're sensitive to a price increase, you shouldn't be buying this vehicle. The accessories alone will give a price sensitive person a heart attack.

If my neighbor who's ordering one also gets his first great I will be like the 5th one to drive in it with him. When mine comes in after his then he can drive me in his bronco to pick up my bronco. Or vice versa. This is not a real problem to have. Like no being able to pay your bills that's a real problem.

As a Seahawks fan, part of your statement really bothers me. ?
