I've called a few East Coast stores and have received a few different answers to the following (all times EST).
Store 1: "Doors open at 10am and we will start taking reservations at 1pm."
Store 2: "Doors open at 10 am and we will take reservations immediately"
Second question revolves around whether or not someone can go in and reserve one in your name with your credentials, if you are not near a store. For example, two family members go into store together. One places deposit for personal vehicle, another wants to place one for relative not there, but with their info/payment/credentials.
Store 1: "No problem for someone in-store to sign you up with your payment, personal info."
Store 2: I'm not sure and would not want to say definitely yes., but each person can reserve up to 2 vehicles, but it may have to be in their name and reservations are not transferable."
My take: (but you can always have someone buy the car a and then title it in your name)
