Default Priority Code 80

I am in Canada and I ordered my 2021 F150 back on February 22nd, to replace my current F150 with the lease that ended in April. The dealer has extended the lease month by month until the truck arrives.
I finally got a VIN number last week, which the salesman said had a 'scheduled build" of June 28th.
I was looking at the order confirmation from back in February and it says Priority 80.
Doing some research it seems Priority 80 is a retail order and not a customer order?
is this what has delayed the truck?
if dealers are able to assign priorities why would they assign such a low priority?
Was it an oversight, or is it done on purpose?

Priority 1-9 is Ford internal
10-19 is Retail
20-80 is Stock

It's posable that the sheet you have is only a preview of your order and the sales manager hadn't changed the priority yet. The same happens with the order numbers.

You’re not buying the truck, just leasing it would be my guess.

Lease orders are still classified Retail.

I’m planning to Lease but my order is a 10 according to my spec sheet I signed. Nothing saying I can’t buy the truck instead when it arrives.

Yeah mine is a lease and is a 10, and everything so far *knocks in all wood* has gone quickly, build is supposed to start this coming Tuesday. When they submit the order the only thing I can see that indicates your intent is if you are a "Plan" customer, as my info on the tracking page shows A Plan, not sure Ford/scheduling even knows if you intend to lease or buy, since it doesn't matter until the paperwork is signed not sure why they would care.
