My dealer will not tell me anything, how did you get this out of them.
Believe it or not, some dealers are really good. My salesman called me today to tell me where I'm at on their list and that I wasn't going to be ordering today. Called out of the blue. Wasn't expecting it.

Did you check the previous page? On the main reservation page before you select the Lightning. Mine had a link there to order and build.

Thanks. Nothing yet. Buy will keep looking there as .

Is this the page you are talking about? If yes that means, I will have to wait for the link to show up 2/4/6/... weeks down the road, right?

Yes, you have it correctly. That exact screenshot has a CONFIGURE button next to the VIEW. When the order is then placed, mine now says just "View" again but instead of "Reservation" it says "Order"

Anyone else get the pop-up, but no Order option yet?
On your pop-up scroll down to start the process.

Ordered, now on to the dealer to see about the Lariat option 18A Power Deployable Running Boards - it may take longer to build but I need them for my wife - only dealer can add tis option.

Will @Administrator be setting up a spreadsheet to enter our orders?

Ended up ordering a Lariat ER+ in Antimatter Blue and only added drop in plastic bedliner. Had reservation submitted the minute before the presentation started 5/19/21, Koons Ford in Virginia was nice enough to say I was sitting #1 at the dealer, hopefully this helps to judge your own personal reservation timestamp...

Let us know what the dealer says. I want the power running boards as well.

Congrats to those who got it. I guess despite my dealer promise I'm not getting mine in today.
Most of the dealers don’t know the difference between a wave and model year.

No email, but was able to order in the last few minutes. Res # was xxx17156. Central Alaska. Dealer did require $1500 deposit. But price for Lariat LR with a few xtras came in $80,194, without ADM. Almost went for Pro, so for someone, "You're welcome". No smooching with dealer, or even contact after their email acknowledgement of my res. I just let the res. system run its course.

Oh yeah, the order sheet says " Est Del 20 weeks"

Update: I did receive the email invite after I had already ordered online.

I’m jealous of all the Lariats. I just couldn’t justify it lol. I ordered the basic Pro with max tow and spray in bedliner in Blue Ice.

On a better note my dealer already accepted my order!
