My dealer said mine might not be Priority 10!

How important is it to have your order be a "Priority 10". I know I have read a lot about it here, but what are the different Priorities? What do they mean? I dont wantto wait 4-5 months for my car!! :bang:

Priority only means something within the dealer's order. Priority 10's are built first, and then count up from there. If your dealer has a bunch of 99's already, and yours is a 98, it will be built first.
At least that's how I understand it.

How do I know what else the dealer has ordered? Would they tell me? They still say 8 - 10 weeks for the order.....should i be worried?!?

From what I gather, on special orders it does not matter that much. (Unless it is like priority 99) The priority is set by each dealership and is more important for the unsold, stock orders they place.

If you are not their only unscheduled unit, they shouldn't give you a 10 priority, that would put you in front of whatever other orders are ahead of you (even though it would be nice). They use progressively increasing numbers to "line-up" the orders based on when they were placed.
Don't worry so much about your number, the big issue is how far down the list are you? Tje only way to find this out is ask. Their daily status report will show all the orders that are currently in the order bank, so you can see where you stand.

Does this number rank in only that model? If I was a code 11 Mustang would a code 10 Crown Vic get built first? Is code 10 the lowest or is there a code 5 or 3? What is a DORA?

Priority 10 is the lowest.
DORA = Dealer Order Reciept Acknowledgement

No I don't work for Ford, I work(ed) at a Blue Oval Certified truck dealership for a while, where two family members still work. Pretty much everything I know about this car, however, I've learned from this forum.
