[QUOTE="reason4treason, post: 12050721, member: 134879"] [I][B]I would be extremely curious to learn how many allocations were allowed by SVT for the 2013 if you can find that out, please.[/B][/I] The first dealer I tried to work with was informed during the last week of April how many allocations they were allowed for the 2013. I'd guess that all dealers were informed about the same time. Ford/SVT really should have a system of advertising which dealers have allocations remaining; the truth. Those that hold the last 100 allocations are for example going to have a hard time matching up with customers because it's such a chore to do a national search. I also think Ford should have its own listing of all GT500 inventory as easily accessible as cars.com or autotrader. Why shouldn't they? That's to their benefit. Any customer who truly wants one and has the $$$ ready should be able to get one either off a lot somewhere, or ordered if the options they want are not available on a lot, or if one is available but there's an ADM on it. Thanks very much for your gems fb90. btw: if a dealer now cannot get an order accepted if they don't have an allocation available, it is much better to know that. early in the year, before dealers were informed of how many 2013 allocations they would get, orders were accepted, sometimes without that allocation eventually being granted. maybe after too, i don't know. but if that's now not the case, at least you're not definitely waiting for something that is never going to materialize...although [I]none[/I] of this is guaranteed even now as the setup stands. I know that if you have your car, you're probably not concerned, but for those of us still waiting, we're trying to gauge, and this is the most useful info we seem to have to work with. [/QUOTE]
