Just had a conversation with the dealership that ordered my truck in September. They have multiple trucks on order (even ordered another one yesterday) and have yet to recieve a build date for any of them.
The orders are verified with Ford but no build dates. Based on this, I assume that it's at least 8 weeks if they were to be issued a build date today.
Does not sound like I will be seeing my truck for a few months yet.
That April estimate is looking more and more likely. I hope that it turns around.
Have you checked your dealership's website for any 2021's that show up as "In Transit"?
If you have your VIN you can cross-reference with any they have on their site, and your window sticker should show with the build date (blend#) at the top.

Yes there is nothing in transit. I also noticed the ford.ca website, do not even have the build option yet. at least as of the other day. Maybe this is a clue as to when things will be available in Canada, when the build your truck is available. The dealership said No Vin# is available. I would suspect that it will be available once the build date is established. They have ordered for stock and retail and have received nothing as to when it will be available.
They are a big dealership as well, so I don't think allocation is the problem.

I ordered mine on September 9th.
Ford verified the order, but no build date. I was told April delivery by a Marketing Rep. I sure hope that it is wrong, but it is starting to feel like that will be the case.

Got my Vin today for my Powerboost and a delivery week of 01 /25 /21. They said that it could be a week early or a week later than the ETA.
I ordered in September.
