Not what the first dealer told me. He took my order and then, after the order banks opened, called to tell me there was a problem; namely, the system wouldn’t accept the order for a MY2021. After I pressed for an explanation, he said that he had used up his 2021 allocation (despite telling me a week earlier that he still has an allocation) but if we allowed the order to sit there, Ford would process it as a MY2022 when the MY2022 banks opened and he received his MY2022 allocation.It is actually not related to allocation at all... Its order placement date. Even if that dealer wasn't allocated, but you placed the order before Sept 2021, you will get a MY2021.
Allocated orders get built first but other orders placed before Sept get build dates before the MY2021 begin to happen.
So, in a worst case scenario you could get a MY2021 in Jan of 2022
Not saying you’re wrong. Just conveying experience and info from dealer.
