No offense taken. From my experience in the auto business I can tell you that the MY22 will be considered a year old as soon as the MY23 start rolling off the line, even though they may only be days old. In a NORMAL market the depreciation will hit it right away. It will hit the MY23 also but...
There’s still probably another eight weeks of production time out there to get these orders hopefully built. Just doesn’t matter to me anymore. I wouldn’t take a MY22 rolling off the the assembly line just days before the MY23 start rolling off the same line. But I do hope those that it really...
They took the MY22 line item off of the scheduling manifest weeks ago now. Nothing on there anymore except the MY23. My MY22 order went “unscheduled clean”. I have since went to another dealer and did a MY23 order on the day the order bank opened. Based on how long some of the people waited and...
By OTD price I’m assuming you are referring to out the door, which really shouldn’t even be considered since ea state has different taxes and title requirements and ea dealer has different doc fees. Most people here have ordered their vehicles new from the factory and not out of dealer stock So...
2.5% back of invoice came to about a 7.3% discount from MSRP plus I will still get any rebates being offered. Like I said, nothing to lose and everything to gain.
take this for what it’s worth. Waiting for your dealer and Ford to do the right thing would just be a non starter for me. I would get with someone like Ourisman and order a MY23 right now. After all, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Now you have two orders in play, a 22 & 23...
We should be so lucky. Just because we were close to the front of the line on ordering our MY23 doesn’t necessarily mean that all the problems that popped up on MY22 orders have been resolved. MY22 order which was placed on 7/16 still hasn’t been scheduled! We’re talking a very bare minimum of...
it’s going to be a dealer specific case by case problem. But, in the meantime you can get offers from Carmax, Vroom and Carvana online while you wait. Most of their offers are only good for 7 days but at least you will have ballpark numbers to work with before going the dealer route. my Dealer...
I keep seeing these comments about the order guide for the Mustang MY23 being released yet nobody has posted a link to it. What’s the matter? Do the dealers need some OJT on a product that supposedly isn’t changing any From the MY22?
hopefully with the whole auto industry moving to the order based selling platform they will all upgrade their IT departments to provide something like a real time tracking system. But, I’m not going to hold my breath
Hopefully you all get your new rides very soon. But, I was just reading this article that could be relevant. Hopefully not.

The reopening of the various economies gave hope that the supply situation had begun to improve. Add to this: Comments about a decline in demand for...
I would tell him where to shove his order and run, not walk to another dealer. I’m 72 and have grasped how the internet has changed the car business. Sounds like he doesn’t have a clue or chooses not to. Sorry you are having to deal with this. Hopefully you will know something firm soon.
The lack of a line item for MY22 is the first thing that caught my eye because for the last two weeks it was still there with the standard announcement that 2023MY STARTUP SCHEDULING BEGINS 10/20/2022. The last 2 weeks now show the MY23 and nothing about the MY22 until back in August. Kind of...
For those of us with MY22 orders that never got scheduled I’m not sure there will be any November builds based on the Production Schedule released this morning. The last time the MY22 had any scheduling was the week of 8/22 and that was October scheduling. Nothing since.
Sometimes it’s just a matter of speaking with the right person. I was in the business for many years and each dealer usually has only one or two managers that fully understand the ordering system. Most sales people don’t have a clue. They only know what they’ve been told. Many of the mega...
