With all due respect...not true. It's as debatable as how much sugar goes in sweet tea but the law is the law. If Thor says its a 2017...it's a 2017. Police databases are based on DMV files not the VIN plate on the dash. It will show up as a 2017 and LE knows this. For parts and service on the chassis...the actual Ford year model is important, but other than that...2017, or whatever Thor says it is.

I, personally, believe you and will not pick a fight with you but that's not going to convince the FL DMV when I go to reregister it and pick a fight with them. They'll just 'escort' me out of the office.
I need hard references. Statute. You know that. Something from Thor may not hurt either. The Dealer registered it. What can I say? I didn't know about that part of the process.
Update: Googling 'register vehicle as a different year' has nothing. not enough close. Zip. Nada. Kaput.
