I assume that until we get a VIN number from the dealer, there is nothing that can tell us anything about the order placed with the dealer. Correct?

All I have is the Order Code and Sales Code. No other tracking info... My excellent salesperson (Albert @Granger) told me that it will be later in January or early February before we get further as the truck / options I ordered is in commodity hold, whatever that is.

That is correct! Although an order number if speaking to the right agent at ford 18003435338 might be able to give you date of vin number will be assigned. The 1st call might not work it depends if you get an agent that knows how to look this info up. Another way is to call fleet but you will need dealer code to do this it's a 5 digit code. They have all information on the order and shipping. With a vin you will be able to get more information. Good luck!

Thank you very much! I did call 18003435338 but it seemed to be a fleet support number. I figured I wasn't going to get anywhere with that...

Plat. Truck w/o work surface to be delivered next week.
Plat. Truck with work surface (my original order) is in "production" but dealer says Feb. 15 at the earliest. I'm probably going to wait for the truck with the work surface but annoyed at continued delay. :(

I think that is the wisest thing to do, that way you get everything you wanted with just a little more pain.

If that one is in production, why would it take 2 more months to arrive??

I know Cal takes longer but geeze! Compare the time from production of the one arriving next week, if it is less than 2 months, I would go with that added to the 2nd one.

I ordered an XLT 302a in late November, just heard today from the dealer that it has "entered production" and should "go down the assembly line next week." Dealer expects about two weeks after that for delivery (Louisville KY) - he said essentially all trucks built in Dearborn arrive here by truck directly (leave Michigan in the morning arrive in Kentucky same night). This is my first time following an order this closely...when should I expect the window sticker to be available to download?

Bingo! Just got it. It has a code of "220210120" at the top, I'm guessing this is the official build date? Early Feb seems like a good delivery estimate.

Woo hoo. Mine changed to 'In Production' and can see the green special order sticker! Production date from the dealer is 1/20. KR Powerboost, work surface, WW liners, spray-in, tow tech, and 360 2.0 prep. Getting pumped!

Mine too. Not sure how to decode top numbers and the ones in the bottom boxes.

Just got a call from my dealership. Seems max recline seats are still an issue. At this time no apparent time for when they will be available or little if any availability soon do to supplier issues. Reason for no VIN in my case.
