When I look at the Ford website I only see 2022 models (cars and trucks). There is a 2023 E transit but that is the only 2023 model that I see.
But, everything that I've read seems to indicate that the order banks opened on Aug 11. Still, I only see 2022 model year info.
My dealer called me back in July to say they had an extra allocation Platinum (Lightning) and they offered it to me since I was next on the list. I passed at that time (Im not a platinum buyer) and they assured me that I would the be first to order when the next order waves opened up. I haven't heard anything and it looks like some people have been placing 2023 orders so I'm confused.
I'll reach out to my dealer on Tuesday but wanted to check with the combined wisdom of this group to see if anyone knows something that I haven't figured out, yet.

Order banks opened by invitation only for those who were previously invited to order but passed to get a Pro or XLT. I expect the website will be updated when the regular order banks open in mid-September and the rest of invitations start to go out.

In July, your dealer would not have known if you would be in the very first wave in September. However, if you are at the top of their list there is a good chance you will receive an invitation in the early waves.

That explains it pretty well. Thank You!
I'm anxious to see the website build tool because I'm worried about the price increase. I may be either out priced or have to scale back to the standard range battery to keep it in my budget. Pretty upset about that, I gotta say.

if you click on the build and price tool for the 2022, it will take you to the 2023 build

yes, you can already 'build and price' for 2023, just click on the link and it will update to '2023' when you get in... the pricing will also be there for 2023, which is $6k to $8k increases on all trims.
