2023 Lightning ordering starts in August?

[TaxmanHog]

That's for Fleet

Yes, and Tim B pointed out that it's likely to be consistent for retail orders as well.

23MY invites will start going out next week. First group will be customers who were offered a 22 but extended because they were waiting for a Pro.

Apparently my sources suck or the timing has been delayed. The message I originally received stated emails would go out on the 18th. From the company that runs the reservation conversion site.

My dealer just told me my order would be moved to 2023, not sure how that is going to work. Asked if I could then reconfigure and haven't heard back.

Wow... So people who placed orders for 2022 models are getting bumped to 2023?

This is a big deal, and this is the first report I've seen of this.

I'm sure more people will get similar news about their orders.

I wonder if it's possible you're dealer didn't properly submit the order before some deadline.

I haven’t seen or heard about any converted orders getting swapped to a 23MY.

Most likely is your dealer took an "order" from you, but it wasn't actually tied to anything. Your reservation never actually got invited to order.
If you have a reservation, then you could see it on the Ford website and you would get an email directly from Ford when you were able to order.

on the ford website, does the "order accepted by dealer" have a check mark next to it?

According to old posts, he got a wave 5 order invite from Ford and placed the order accordingly. He or she has been waiting for the build date since that time.

here's hoping the pro is available in Canada for 2023!

With price increase and rebate disappearing, the Dealer 10k$ markups are going to be a wash. It's sad that many dealers didnt get their mannequins until July so won't technically be able to sell them until just after the rebate decreases.

Looking at the re-cap of what you went through to straighten out your original mangled order...

Yes, order placed and accepted in april, just doesn't say scheduled

Yep, Its been a mess. Dealer said I got to priority one which usually indicates its getting scheduled

That's great news, I still think we will see more MY22 scheduling in a week or 3, patience, there is still a lot of space in late August and all of September build weeks, of the entire ordering universe the forum represents a 5% proportion, there is still MY22 production capacity. (IMHO)
