Factory order questions

[usernameistaken]

With 2025 models around the corner, how will it affect 2024 modes factory orders that are waiting to be fulfilled? If the price is lower, will the price on bill of sale be adjusted? Will we get option to go with 2025 models instead for the same deal? When is the cut off time before Ford stop making 2024 models and ship out 2025 models for 2024 factory orders?

No one knows all for sure but this is my opinion based on past experiences.

1 - Usually they will stop taking orders at some point that they know they can fulfill and retool for 2025 once those are complete.
2 - Lower? That usually does not happen and if the manufacturer wants to lower the price, they will have continuous incentives.
3 - That would be up to the dealership. Probably not as each model and model year has its own deals. You would usually not make a deal for some 2024 leftover and then say well just transfer that same deal over to that new 2025 sitting over there. You could ask but that would be up to the dealership.
4 - I am surprised they are still taking orders for 2024 and someone here posted that they heard Ford will stop orders in August. That would usually end 2024 production around November and 2025 may start in December. That would not have 2025 models showing up at dealerships until January 2025.

They would be making a similar mistake to the one they made with the 2024 roll out. Why is Ford delivering new MYs so late compared to its competitors? GM already released their order guides for their 2025 1500s.

I ordered a 2024 RCSB on May 1st 2024, got the confirmation email saying that I would get a follow update in 45 days still no follow up email, called FORD marketing, they have no idea what is going on.

Luckily I have a daily driver so I can wait, but at least Ford should send updates as promised. Well ...

Good luck with your order maybe it will be a popular Trim and it will get built sooner.

I’m in the same boat lol.I contacted many dealers near me last month about ordering a truck because my lease will be up in 6 months and all of them told me “well you have 6 months we have plenty of trucks on the lot” so I said “I see you do but nothing that I want”.I did find a dealer about 30 minutes away that was cool and said yeah I would order one now because you don’t know if it will get built but it might depending how you want it optioned.So I ordered thru them didn’t have to put a deposit down but I see couple of my options are on constraint like the PowerBoost,20 inch rims for the bap plus and not sure about the spray in bed liner.I won’t order a 25 if it dosent get built because the price will be higher and I don’t have time to wait.So I have my fingers crossed it gets built or I will have to settle for a truck on the lot.

I have a RCSB 4x4 on order since 4/22. No 45 day email, and only shows "Order Confirmed" via their website. I have other cars and trucks so I'm not bothered by the wait. None the less this is excessive wait time for a new vehicle. I can only hope I get on the latest build schedule for August.
