2021 Ford F-150 2.7 XLT
My personal conversion rate is now predicted to be 0%. I simply can’t afford or get a truck at this point.

I’m not forgoing comfort features just to have a “reasonably priced” EV Truck and I’m not passing on the ER Battery that would allow me to go drive round trip to my family and back home. I'm getting married later this year and that is more important than a truck at the moment.
I was originally going for the XLT w/ ER battery because it made more sense, but a $9,500 required premium package changes everything. I have a lot of respect for what Ford is doing with the Pro model but I’m officially out on the XLT or Lariat.

I'm #10 with my dealership and hope to get the invitation email from Ford within the next few weeks. Once I do, what would be the best way of selling my reservation slot?

You can't.

You need to buy the truck and then flip it.

I believe they only let you transfer a reservation to another family member in the same household .

and don't let the dealer get wind of your plan to do that or they don't have to sell it to you .

Either flip it or strike an unethical deal with the dealer and hope the unethical dealer honors it.

I won't lie. I'm tempted to buy and flip a Lariat.

I feel like the pro market is going to be pretty limited by their budget and are not going to be interested at 10-20k higher or they would be going to the XLT.

Anyone limited by a budget is not who you would be flipping it to . It's the people that just have to have the newest thing on their block right now and don't even have a reservation/chance at getting one soon .
