I would guess that reservation priority would only affect build order to some extent, and once built that would no longer mean anything related to shipping and delivery. The reasons that you state for that makes good business sense. My dealer's FCTP is supposed to be built tomorrow, I'm hoping that the time it takes to get here (once it actually leaves) will give me some idea as to how long it will take for my car to get here. I would hope the west coast cars are not going through KC.There may be some priority but again we don't know what it will be. I agree it isn't likely to be the original reservation priority. However, it might be customers before FCTP (or vice versa), FEs first, etc. My guess will be customers before FCTP as that means cash flow and fulfills the promise of getting cars in customers' hands. The biggest priorities also may include quickest delivery and full rail cars.
Since we heard the plan was train to Kansas City then split east and west I've been figuring first deliveries would be around KC. However, they might drop off some in Texas on the way through. Of course, the plan may not be KC any more.
