Does anybody know when dealers would start taking orders for 2020's?

[Oldfart]

I was in the process of ordering a '19 and the dealer had mentioned the ordering would be closed out before long. I'm not in a rush at all, I have other vehicles. I'm wondering if I should just order it or wait a few months for a '20.

7/15/19 is the open order date with DTP starting production 10/7/19

Thanks for the info. So if I wait I likely would be looking at end of year delivery.

Anyone know if the 2020 ordering open date was today?

I put in an order for a 2019 today with one dealer and another dealer told me that Ford was only taking 2020 orders going forward.....don't know what to believe.

my dealer told me the 2019 orders are still open but ford can close them at any time. he said usually when the 2019 builder is still up you can order them, once the 2020 builder is in its place then thats it.

So...y’all going with 2019 or waiting for a 2020 model?

I'm going with 2019 unless they tell me I can't.

I am going to try and leverage the new models to get a better price on a 19 as opposed to a 2020.
