So does the link bring up anything new for anyone? I just go to the same old Lightning page at ford.com

"Orders start at the beginning of the new year ."

I love how vague they word this . Flashbacks to the Bronco emails .
What's the beginning ? Jan 1st ? Jan 31st ? By end of 1stQtr ?

My dealer stated that I should order in person at the dealership, after I get the invite for the website. They said I am a priority reservation and my original order timestamp is all that matters, not when the order is actually placed online. They stated this was how the Ford Bronco worked as well, and that it will benefit me to order at the dealer due to my priority position.

Will any of you be ordering at your dealerships, or will you order online as soon as you are able to? I'm torn with how I want to proceed.

Definitely ordering at the dealership in person. Old school. I like to see people face to face. Plus they already sold me a Bronco and I went in person for that too.

I appreciate the quick feedback. This is my first experience with this dealer, so I haven't yet developed any rapport. However, the salesperson did seem very genuine and your past experience getting a Bronco holds a lot of weight. I'll go to the dealership to order as well.

I would build and print and take that to dealer.

Got the email, disappointed the build and price tool is not available.

It’s happening…glad to see so many getting the email (at least we know, Ford got our email address correct).

Yea, you'd think they would get that up and running by now.

I'll order online. That way I know for certain the options I want are indeed selected. Particularly if we will have real time information about trim and option availability. In my opinion I don't see any value add to going to the dealer for this, only downside if there is high demand on the config I want.
