Congrats! When was your reservation date? Just wondering if they are going by date.
I saw in another thread that people with a reservation later than mine have been invited, so not going by reservation date yet.

It has never gone by reservation date- it’s always been based on multiple factors. My reservation date was early on 5/20

I have a 6/15 reservation but when filling out that survey I did say I might like a higher level trim.. So maybe related to that

Same, I said I would go for Lariat. Nothing this wave, Oct 31 reservation date. Based on the ramp schedule in another thread I was ball parking an Apr/May invite time frame. However, if they aren't selling anymore XLT then it may come a bit sooner. Regardless, I plan to wait until additional to IRS guidance updates come out and may also wait for some upcoming releases to provide more information. Since Ford decided to make my choice (in trim) for me, I'm choosing to wait.

Mine was in spam folder, but the specs I want keep pushing me over 80k on a Lariat SR when I really wanted a Lariat ER before the 80k limit on the Rebate. I have until 11/18 to decide.

I thought I saw that they were changing their system and would go by reservation date moving forward (don’t remember WHERE I saw that, maybe just a fever dream).

ZEV states and large dealers get more allocation. Someone in a ZEV state with an August reservation could get invited before a May reservation in a nonZEV state.

The dealer you are at is often a bigger factor than the date it seems.

Sure seems that dealer >> all else. 5/20 reservation holder and nary a peep despite survey response indicating plan to purchase a lariat and phoning the dealer to let them know the same thing.

Those surveys weren't tied to you, just general marketing information for Ford.

I was able to order also today. Received email 11am on the west coast. Wanted to order the platinum when they first came out but the price increase changed that. I have issues paying close to $100 grand for a vehicle. Lariat for me. Reservation date 5/20.

Yup, my mistake was misreading the following:
  • Ford will go in reservation list order to invite the next available reservation holders at each dealership.
I didn't notice "at each dealership".

Received email 1:56 PM Eastern 10/19 and order confirmation at 3:07 PM. 5/20 reservation date. Ordering Azure Lariat ER. I hope that the color looks as good in real life as on Ford website.

Might as well cancel your reservation then.

Pro is sold out for the rest of MY23, XLT will be very very hard to come by as it will be a free for all for every invite that has waited if they allow more to be made. At the end of MY23 your reservation will be cancelled regardless if you haven't ordered.

Your only chance is locating dealer stock and hoping they are nice with the ADM. Or buying a used one with no Tax rebate.
