jdpezold Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 The order was actually placed May 28th (deposit check finally cleared this week). Looking at some order trackers, I'm seeing people getting VINs pretty quickly. Is this VIN assignment process different/slower with fleet orders?

As akirby stated, the Fleet ordering scheduling process is a totally separate process. The OTD (Order to Delivery) process is substantially longer and has nothing to do with allocation or the scheduling process for stock or retail orders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metro0308 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 My fleet order was placed in January. Got a vin, production date of 4/12 and window sticker. Since Explorer plant shut down on 4/12 I still haven’t gotten a updated build date or eta delivery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LariatGuy500 Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Why did you do fleet order? Or did they do this without you knowing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fleet orders can only be placed with a valid FORD FIN (Fleet Identification Number) and have a substantially longer OTD (Order to Delivery) timeline. The entire fleet process is different.

frenchs_33 Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Is the Fleet order different than going to a dealer and ordering a truck? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fleet ordering and scheduling process is different from that for Retail and Stock orders and the OTD (Order to Delivery) timeline is much longer. In addition, Fleet orders can only be submitted with a valid Ford FIN (Fleet Identification Number). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
