Yes I have got a receipt from the dealer as wel for my order.Welcome to the Forum.
Did the dealer ever provide you with the Dealer Order Receipt Acknowledgement, commonly referred to as DORA?

Ok.my dealer is saying 2021 might be greyed out . I will get 2022 instead . Dealer is currently fighting with Ford to not get the price raised for 2022 for my order . He said they have 7-8 customers like that who are stuck with due to production getting greyed out for 2021 now.I ordered a 2021 Platinum on 6/23 and received a vin the next day.

Nope. I have not got the price from dealer yet for 2022. But he said he will try to accommodate within the price range which was decided for 2021. I placed my order in July 5th 2021.Let us know how the dealer makes out with the pricing. That would be an interesting item. The last order date was June 25th so you cut it pretty close. Dates are always 'subject to change'. Perhaps there were more orders ahead of you than the system could push through for 2021 production.
Did the dealer give you the price on the 2022? The Ford site still only shows the 2021 ST.

Mine went into production today.Welcome to the Forum.
Let's hope it doesn't get pushed back again.

In your initial post you mentioned that you ordered in June. If you ordered July 5th, the order bank was closed. Last date to order was June 25th.Nope. I have not got the price from dealer yet for 2022. But he said he will try to accommodate within the price range which was decided for 2021. I placed my order in July 5th 2021.
Yeah I thought it was June end . But later when I checked the receipt it was in July 5th When I ordered . But if Ford could have not processed my order then shouldn’t the dealer refuse to order 2021 while booking the car very beginning ? I guess dealer should have suggested me that they cannot take any more 2021 orders . But I did not get any such suggestions from dealer while booking the order.In your initial post you mentioned that you ordered in June. If you ordered July 5th, the order bank was closed. Last date to order was June 25th.
That would explain why the order did not go through and would make it doubtful that Ford would agree to adjust the price. The dealer could.

That's kind of fast, my April order just started production this week!Mine went in production today! Ordered 6/23
It got picked up a day after ordering. Dealer told me I was extremely lucky.That's kind of fast, my April order just started production this week!
I spoke to the dealer today , he said that surely it cannot be 2021 anymore . right now Feb 2021 orders are being manufactured and delivered .Sometimes members here are more informed than the salesmen. I was more surprised that you actually received the DORA from Ford on the 2021 order. They should have caught the error and sent the order back.
Peter
That's odd that everyone is saying that Ford has stopped 2021 orders before August as I just order a 2021 Explorer Limited on August 28th 2021 and was told that ordering a 2022 would take longer to receive than a 2021, of course it's only September 9th so I don't have a VIN yet the dealer said I probably won't see one till October, but the order went in as a 2021 with 2021 incentives that a 2022 doesn't have at least not yet, but since there isn't much changing from 2021 to 22 models I went ahead with a 2021 orderI spoke to the dealer today , he said that surely it cannot be 2021 anymore . right now Feb 2021 orders are being manufactured and delivered .
They only came to know about this in the month of August 2021 that 2021 won’t be manufactured any more . Since my order is of 5th July ,it can take upto December 2021 or Jan 2022 atleast . They are still fighting on the pricing that it doesn’t gets increased for orders which have been already placed. And details about this pricing will be known not before October .
