What I'd do is call around the different dealers in your state - target the high volume dealers.
Ask them how many allocations for customer special order they received the past year.

Much better chance to find a ZEV state dealer too.

Choose the dealer that has the highest special order allocation and that will get you a better position on the reservation list.

If you think about it, my local 3 dealers near me had 2-5 Lightning allocations then my work place uses a fleet Ford dealer 2 counties away that is a very high volume (Roush & Raptor) dealer.

Placed my reservation with them and they received 50 Lightning allocations.
Sure enough I was picked by Ford to order a MY'22 Lightning and I was a second day reservation holder after 30,000 other reservations ahead of me.

Well worth the drive 2 counties away to get the Lightning sooner than later...
You did your homework and it paid off for a day 2 reservation. My dealer only got four allocations. This is good information. Thanks for sharing.
