  1. Did you switch dealerships between waves? Please share your experience.

    I think this is a legitimate explanation why dealers are hesitant to tell customer where they are in line. People are not good at understanding why they are suddenly further back (even though those who "cut in front" technically were there first but were in a different line.
  2. Transition to EV, why Ford/GM still need dealers to sell the trucks?

    So money earned from holdback does not count toward profit? Short answer: dealers who don't sell cars for a profit don't exist for long.
  3. Real test drives?

    Don't count on it. Demo units are typically available for sale at some point and and built at this same time as customer builds. Soooo... every demo unit made delays a customer build. I think I read that Job 1 (first saleable builds) is planned for sometime in April.

  5. Wave 1 Lightning invitation email thread [Update: Emails AFTER 5PM ET]

    Only Ford knows. The Bronco was an example where Ford changed the allocation formula right before ordering opened due to pressure from some big dealers. The change resulted a greatly reduced number of allocations to some smaller dealers who had accumulated large numbers of reservations. For...

  11. Wave 1 Lightning Orders - Granger Ford

    That only matters if you dealer played the game. Mine didn't and I feel good about that but when I get my invite is based on when Ford allocates enough truck to them.
  12. Wave 1 Lightning Orders - Granger Ford

    Seems like the Bronco mess in a lot of ways. If only Ford didn't cave to the dealer network and based allocations on where the reservations are, not based on how much clout the dealer has with Ford. @Granger Ford is hopefully a glimpse of the future but it is going to take time to evolve.
