2023 Super Duty Orders & DiscussionSo just ask your dealer.
I had two trucks to order this year. Work rig came from a big dealer, they had 45 spots in allocation, when I ordered he said I was in the #2 spot so no problem. Low option, early order with high priority at the dealer; got built in Jan. My personal (job 2) one is going thru a small town dealer who was real up front when I first asked about ordering & allocation, and he said they only get 1 - and that it was already spoken for. I could get it in on the books, just be aware of the wait. I emailed when Job 2 started and asked how allocation was looking, he said the one ahead of mine was pulled already and they had room. Scheduled for end of May. Point being, both dealers were right up front with this stuff, shared the info and actually both seem (so far) to be going right according to plan. Speaking of, your next question:
They can assign all orders the same code if they want, doesn't matter, most dealers have to and would normally. It's dealer-specific and aids in determining what builds within THEIR orders get pulled first. Default is 19 and highest they can assign is 10. Gives them some flexibility in prioritizing specific orders when they need to.
As I understand it, order date is the next sorting factor. In theory if a dealer has allocation, and you are the highest priority in the dealer order bank, Ford will try to build your truck - unless there is a constraint and then it gets passed over for the next one in line until the next week when it can try again. Also per what I know, regional reps (or whatever they are called) have the ability to escalate orders to priority above 10 in certain cases if it's deemed necessary.Fri, 05 May 2023 01:44:12 +0000
