Ok, I have to chuckle at people that say “I bought a new Truck from my dealer couple years ago, why don’t I have
priority!” do people not realize how many trucks are sold each year? :unsure:
To be on the “preferred” list at any dealer means high end purchases, like Raptors, Shelby’s and GTs...
I came to the same decision. We bought a platinum PowerBoost last year, but just don’t see the value in the Lightning. So, opted for the Lariat Ext, with max tow.
As far as dealer allocations, I can tell you that they don’t know yet. I spoke with the owner of our dealership in Oregon, they don’t know how many yet. Ford definitely plays a part in this. They must be taking the list the dealers sent in and based on some secret formula, they are sending the...
Spoke to my Sales manager today, they have over 200 reservations, I’m in the top 5, so as long as there are no glitches I should be able to place my order when the time comes. (y)

Thanks for posting, my wife has been annoyed by the SiriusXM preset tab resetting. Guess we need to schedule a visit to our local computer repair shop :LOL:
Well. After reading 16 pages I have concluded that it’s business as usual. Also, some people really need other hobbies.
guess I will continue to patiently wait for the BlueCruise OTA while I also wait for my Bronco to be delivered and news on my Lightning. Good grief I’m a glutton for...
Well, I did learn what happens when you leave your dog in the truck to run into the store and forget to turn off the motion alarm. Alarm went off three times before I could get back inside and disable it. :LOL:
also, I just turned off the security alerts in Fordpass, must have been an update...
