I have submitted my info to be on the Reservation list above. As for placing the reservation, soon as the stream went live, I had everything queued up on Ford.com (had my account already logged in, etc) so I had the reservation completed prior to the event being fully underway (maybe 15-20 seconds into the event). I should be near the front of the line, BUT I am pretty sure they are going to prioritize specific states - usually CA is one of the first. I am in WA, so we shall see what happens!

Have been trying to reconcile the total number of reservations to date and my own standing in line.
I am 108 43727 (5-20-21). The earliest I have seen is 108 03xxx. If the start is 108 00001, then I would be #40,727 less than 12 hours after reservations opened. That does not seem right. And the highest number I have seen is 111 18000 which would make it about 315,000 reservations so far. Again, that does not seem right since Ford is quoting 120,000.
Ford must be putting in place holders at certain spots in the numbering process. Perhaps a couple for each of the 3,000 US Ford Dealerships, VIPs, and of course Pres. Joe? Or the Global 7,500 Dealerships. Perhaps the missing 13,000 at the beginning were this bunch and the jumps in numbers to date are other place holders I cannot think of at the moment.

Theories include multiple reservation tranches were active at once so that the system didn’t have any issues AND I believe there is confirmation that the reservation ID series is used for all vehicles that can be reserved (Bronco, MME).

The good news is Ford didn't prioritize states much in delivery of the Mustang Mach Es. They did make group deliveries to make shipping efficient as the cars were sent from the plant in Mexico.

Suggestion:
There has been a lot of confusion and speculation about what the reservation number really means. It would have (or could be) been nice if your data chart had a column for timestamp.
Some believe a reservation in the first 12 hours from the start of the event on 5-19-21 will guarantee that they would qualify for one of the 15,000 units to be built for 2022 model year. Ford announced that they had 20,000 reservations in the first 24 hours. I did not watch but the event was advertised to begin at 9:30 pm EST.

My reservation is 108 4 3xxx and my confirmation was received at 9:07 am EST on 5-20-21.

Yep, the forum admins are failing to track the important timestamp, again.
