I don't have the exact formula, based on what we see in our queue, it's based on timestamp within available commodities. We get a lot of allocation, likely because of our past EV/PHEV performance, and our location. We get around 15 units per month, but lately that's been higher.Hi @Gloff, thanks for chiming in on this forum.
I was wondering if you might have any insight into the dealer allocation process? What is the typically monthly allocation a dealership like yours will receive? Also why is it the Premium and CaRT1 seem to take forever to get a build date, but Many GT and Selects seem to get built within 3 - 4 months?
As for builds, Select is easy, those are the simplest and only come with the standard range. Extended range is highly constrained due to demand. As to why the GTs we're getting built I'm not sure.
My guess is that Ford's demand projections indicated a high level of GT orders, when in actuality, the Premium ER and Rte 1 were highest demand. This leaves more available GT commodities for production than actual Orders which is why we saw stock units built. Once Premiums and Rte 1 balanced out, GT and Select orders exploded resulting in the demand you see today.
