I placed a reservation which somehow got converted to an order with this number: 10298476. It's for a Premium AWD with extended batteries. Any best guesses on when I could reasonably expect it to hit my driveway?

Spring or summer 2021.

When did you place that reservation/order? That number format looks like one placed this month after reservations had closed. Somewhere in the last month or so, the Ford page shifted from "Reserve Now" to "Order Now".

Hmmmm ok. what about a number like this one ? 10077050. I should give up on the hope of a 2020 delivery?
That number probably never had a chance to be delivered in 2020. That looks like one of the latest reservation numbers. Did you make the reservation in June?

In May. I was one of those with a reservation earlier during the year and due to interactions with a ford dealership cancelled my reservation only to change my mind again and come and make another one in May... smh I should have just left it alone.

That sucks. The dealer interactions can be a mess. Mine was for a week before the GM took over and got it right.

My res# is 10029092. I'm guessing I'll get mine around February. Although that's just my guesstimate based on all we've heard. Since many US deliveries have moved ahead of Europe, it could be sooner. There's very few clues on how many people are converting reservations to orders, so all we really have are guesstimates right now. I'd peg the chances of getting mine before Jan 1 at less than 10%. Hope I'm wrong though.

Probably have to be in the first 5000 or so deliveries to make it in 2020. We keep hearing Oct 26 for start of production in serious numbers, and usually takes at least a month for those to show up at a US dealership.

Yep.

Just remember that the sooner you convert your reservation to an order, the sooner your car will be produced. While reservation timestamp wins, it's only competitors on the field that have a chance. For another analogy, it doesn't matter if you have all the lottery number right if you don't buy the ticket.

Even a late reservation that converts to an order has a chance of leaping past lots of un-ordered, earlier reservations in the first run.

I reserved a Premium on 1/1, converted to order 7/7, number 100306xx. Do you think I might get that in my hands before the end of the year? Maybe on 12/12 to continue the pattern?

Probably somewhere in the range of 8,000-12,000 Mach Es will be produced for the North American market by the end of December.

I have a Premium @ 100139xx and I expect it in the first calendar quarter of 2021. (being realistic) If I get it at the end of 2020...great, merry Christmas to me. ? I think 10-18k range is in the gray area where if luck has it and no unforeseen delays, we may get it in 2020.

FE/Premium reservations under 10,000 has a good chance of 2020 delivery. Every 5k is about 1 month back.
