the second to last line says, between commas, no 5.0 available. That’s my understanding.

Are you talking about this section??

yeah I see what you mean now. I believe you are right, sorry.

Hi Currybob
I have received a VIN but seem to stalled at “order in process”. Any guess why no scheduling information like production date?

I have no clue with Canadian orders to be honest.

The new Ford tracking system for retail orders is new to me. It sounds like, your order is clean and picked up, they are waiting for maybe parts for your build or they have already scheduled out as far as they go. As another week goes by they will schedule further into Feb. But this is just an educated guess on my part.

Yeah. That’s my understanding. No 5.0

Just cancelled my order... Ford just lost a sale to a first-time truck buyer because of this debacle

On to a Nissan Titan perhaps!

My son in law has a Titan... absolutely loves gas.. alot

Yeah, I had heard the same thing, Tundra's too and I think the Toyota is a better truck.

Good read and I guess we all know the orders are pouring in.

Well I’ll definitely be settling in for a long wait. My only hope is that with the wait comes the ironing out of some of the kinks I’ve read on this forum (blis, seatbelts, etc).

Agree that it's not just Ford having COVID related supply/production issues. For those that can't wait and considering jumping ship, you'll probably run into the same delays unless you settle for a 2020 model.

Ford Vehicle Production Struggling To Reach Pre-Pandemic Levels

2020 will continue to test our patience well into 2021

I waited in a very long line to get my patience, so I'm not going to lose it now!

I got my VIN number today. It is a stock order King Ranch with Powerboost. It looks like maybe I will dodge all the mine field of constraints for now.

Primary Status

In Order Processing

Vin 1FTFW1ED1MFA59555

My KR has been saying in order processing for a couple weeks now. But I ordered it with the 5.0 so who knows when I will see it

“I’d prefer a bad excuse to no news!!”

(please note my sarcastic enthusiasm)


I’m in the same boat as many of you and without a paddle!

Don't be too disappointed - I've had a Vin for some time now and I don't feel any closer to getting excited. I was excited for about a day and then realized it didn't really change anything.

One good thing about having a VIN though is checking your status yourself. Of course here latly mine just says "ditto".
