2022 GT500 order thread

[Hells Fury]

I'd bet they won't be the least produced 500 for 2020 either. I think this thread in itself is proof
I'm wondering how many are allocated (was your allocated? I may have missed it if you already answered). I had a deal with a dealer who assumed he would get allocations, he took my order but wouldn't take a deposit. So I never trusted I would actually get a car. I think some dealers take orders and just hope since they have an order, that the rep will eventually allocate the car.

This exact thing happened to me in 2017. I traded my 2016 350 in on an R allocation that the dealer though they could get. It was a risk that ended up working out, I got one of the last 2017 R's built and it was a very late allocation (Allocated July 3rd).

They have one allocation and I got it. Smaller dealership, said they have been in contact with regional rep allocation is still set just waiting for pick up

I have also been told by another source that Ford Corp is not happy with all of the ADMs being charged and in an attempt to curb this, they are being very picky with allocations and even limiting allocations to dealerships they charge crazy ADMs.

Ford could care less. All lip service. After the fraudulent BS that Ford of Port Richey tried playing with me as well as a 45k ADM on a base model, I emailed Jim Farley, Elena Ford - Chief Customer Experience Officer and Brad Brownell - Director, Customer Experience. An understudy called me and said they had no control over what their dealers charge.

Small dealer in Nebraska had one allocation as well, so I ordered my HE through them. Like you, I'm waiting for the order to get picked.

My GM sent me the VIN last week.

The plant is open and barring parts shortages, it should remain open.

If anyone was interested in ordering a F-150 Lightning, Ford has already received 200,000 orders and are no longer accepting new orders.

If you thought the allocation process was wild and senseless for the GT500 .. the Lightning is/was completely idiotic.

Even for lightning and bronco the first decider is allocations. That is what determined how many orders were allowed in each wave, and which dealerships got them. Ford controls this with no visibility to us.

Then it goes by priority and constraints, with dealers allowed to manipulate the priority of some reservations - this the dealer controls, some are upfront about it and others not so much.

In ordered mine July last year. So I have a reservation although I was late to the party. Again through my friendly non-ADM dealership.

Back on topic then.

Hopefully Thursday some more members will get VINs. I believe that's the day they go out.
