2026 Dark Horse SC Order Status - Share Yours

[Snoopy49]

I got offered an allocation. I'd have to sell my GT350R Her to do it.

Have you talked to your dealer about a ADM?

Have you discussed a ADM with the dealer?

That won't be part of our conversation.

Are these going for MSRP?

A lot of dealers seem to be charging a Markup ($5K - $30K).
There are some dealers that sell at MSRP, you just have look for them. Just look for dealers near you and then widen your search. I would look for small dealerships in small towns for a MSRP deal.

My local dealer still wants a markup on a regular DH that's been out for 3 years now, LOL.

Obviously complete A$$H@$es

Well at this point I don't agree with you because as stated above and in this paragraph below is quoted from Mother Ford re: their order process which clearly indicates a previewing stage

How the Preview Status Fits into the Build Process

• Unscheduled: Your order sits in the dealer's order bank but hasn’t been flagged or reviewed by the factory.
• Previewing: Ford evaluates the order to see if it fits within your dealer's specific model allocation (the number of orders a dealer is allowed to schedule in a given period). It checks to ensure your selected options aren’t on constraint (parts shortages).
• Scheduled: If your order passes the preview checks and is selected, it receives a VIN and an assigned build week or build day.

Well (according to dealer) - I guess I'm back in the "PREVIEWING" stage

Talked to someone with an order in on a DH SC Track Pack yesterday. They were informed by their dealer that there is a less than 10% chance that their TP order will be fulfilled and were offered the opportunity to reorder but with a Base SC and not a TP car. I called my dealer to talk to him about this. For one, he said the available TP cars will constitute half the amount (in percent) of GT500 TP cars that were allowed to be ordered in a given year. In other words, they will be extremely difficult to obtain. He said that Ford has still yet to provide a program breakdown such that dealers would know what orders will be accepted or rejected. In other words, every DH SC TP order is going in blind at this point because a given dealer may not qualify for a TP order when only a Base car could be ordered by them. He said there were 300 some Track Pack orders showing in the system at this point.

So typical Ford SNAFU - business as uaual

I think dealers know at this stage what they got allocated. My dealer told me they requested a TP car, but were told they were not getting an allocation for one, but would get one for non-TP.

Couple dealers near me posting allocations available, I’m hearing 40K ADM for the rights to order

You made my point.

Being in the program guarantees them one car. That is all they know, that, and the likliehood that their one allocation will be for a Base car only. There has been no breakdown given to dealers beyond that.

Probably true. I don't know how much I trust the dealer near me. He made it sound like they were told their breakdown, but could have just been his way of avoiding entering TP order and it having a low chance of being allocated.

 

[JimiHendrix]

Idiots can't just build a F'ing car without all the BS Drama -

TP cars - no TP cars,
Preview - no Preview,
ADM - no ADM,
Allocation - no Allocation,
Constraints - no Constraints,
Build dates - we don't know...

Sounds like Stellantis and the Dodge Boy's

Again, that is what is happening. When Ford finally announces how the types of allocations are to be distributed, we'll ALL know.
