Not at my dealer of choice but a competing dealer. Are dealers this clueless on how the process works? Are they able to see Wave 2 now?

Maybe your dealer isn't a certified EV dealer or doesn't have EV certified sales person

No, dealer is definitely certified and this dealer is 100 miles away. I suspect they are trying to sell spots, I am going to call and find out what kind of shady crap they are trying to pull off. The funny part is my brother has a reservation here and no one has answered any of his questions.

Damn I'd report that dealer to Ford if that's the case. Im interested in a follow-up post about whatever you find out

Called the dealer and spoke with the ordering clerk. Seems like the email was sent out as an error. They wanted me to forward the email so they can notify their customers about this error. No ADM also, so my brother is happy lol

Good to hear no ADM - never would have considered them as I am closer to them in LA county than Ken Grody Ford in Orange County where my reservation is at.

Funny, I always get my Hondas from Norm Reeves - they are the most transparent and honest dealer I have dealt with.

So far, 6 Hondas in the past 25 years!

Passing by 6 other Honda dealers, the drive to Norm Reeves has always been a win for both parties.

Strange I did not get a marketing email from Norm Reeves as I get way too many....
