Well mine finally arrived.  Just got a message from my sales person with a couple of pictures. They are doing the spray in bedliner and tinting the windows.

 

Ordered 1/8/22

In production 3/18/22

Built 3/19/22

Shipped 3/23/22

Arrived at railyard 3/26/22

Arrived at dealer 4/1/22

 

 

WTF?! I'm glad guys are getting trucks, but there others that have waited longer (lots longer in some cases).  I ordered an almost identical truck in Atlas blue a week before you (less options actually) and my dealer just tells Ford hasn't scheduled trucks in weeks. Which I know isn't 100% true. I have 41 trucks ahead of me at my dealer and my position has not changed one bit since the day I ordered my truck. I have no commodity constraint options. I kept my truck relatively simple and tech light.

 

I asked my dealer if they could lower my priority number and I was told they don't do that. It moves older orders ahead of newer orders and they feel that is unfair to their other customers.

Can someone tell me what this means? I have an order confirmation email and secondary "thanks for your patience" email. And this morning I log in and see this. It doesn't add up for me. I don't understand why one things acknowledges I have an order and another says I don't. What am I missing?

i have same thing got confirmation email while still at dealer but login and says same thing, ive called ford and order is confirmed but doesnt show on my account.

Same thing for me.  My order was entered on February 17, 2022 and was confirmed by an email a couple days later from Ford.  I created a ford.com account and they have no record of my order.  Ford is a big company and it is apparent that not all the systems are integrated with the order system.  There are some great people in these forums that can look up information.  It is too bad that we can't do the same.

 

So I sit and wait and read a lot on this forum.

I am of the same mindset, and if I want it, buy it, no one is going to buy it for me (Damn It)!

Anybody have the link to where they can check the vin for you?

No email from Ford yet but went ahead and looked anyway…. I HAVE A WINDOW STICKER!!!  Man been waiting since November and it’s finally being built.  All the excitement had almost worn off.  So stoked!  She’s going to be the envy of many!

Congrats, your build is very similar to Mine except I went KRU. Also ordered in November but still no Vin.

Weekend just got better.  I feel fortunate that this has been a fairly smooth process to this point 🤞🏻

 My Bronco an Lightning show up there because you go through the Online Reservation Process, but my Super Duty doesn't because its a Dealer Retail Order. .

I had a VIN in just a couple weeks…. I’d be pressing my dealer pretty hard at this point!

[pilotpip 8]

Anybody gotten this email? Wondering what the holdup is. 

 

F-350 CCSB 7.3L 3.73 FX-4
Sport appearance 
5th wheel prep
LED headlights

Originally ordered December 30, 2021.  I dropped black appearance because of the bedliner issues on Feb 14.  Now I see they have a BAP without the Bedliner...

I was just congratulating him on finally getting his codes after such a long wait...nothing more than that...

[JC2014 75]

I contacted my salesman and asked him if I could get a update on my truck and he sent me this. Does this mean it was shipped on the 29th? When I go to the tracker and pull my window sticker now "I know that people say it doesn't  mean anything" the date on the bottom of the sticker changed to 04/01. Just wondering if they might have scanned it again getting off the train?

I don't think you see anything there until you have a vin. Maybe I'm wrong though. Anyone see their order there before they had a vin?

I'm not sure my window sticker dates mean the same thing as yours, but mine showed the date the sticker was created as 3/15 in the special order field and 3/16 at very bottom when it was first available to me.  The date in the special order field has remained at 3/15 consistently each time I've downloaded it.  Then, the day it was built, the date at very bottom showed 3/22 and when shipped 3/23.  Today Mine still shows 3/15 in the special order field and now 4/3 at the bottom and according to CSX, it's supposed to arrive at final destination ramp (at industry) today on 4/3 so maybe that is the actual unload day and sticker was updated to reflect that event. build day, my assumption.  Unfortunately I didn't create special files for each time the dates changed but I did see them and didn't think much of it at the time.  I could have created time stamp versions of each window sticker PDF in the past, however I did create one for today's version.  If mine was unloaded today, it may not change again unless the unload off car carrier at dealer creates yet another time stamp version.  If this is all correct, maybe the date at the bottom others have obsessed about is just time stamp at each change in status.  I think I created a screenshot of the sticker on build day 3/22 and I'll go back thru BOF posts I submitted and see if I can find it and come back and edit this one to show three different events that changed date at the bottom.

I got that same email a week or two ago. Several of us did. Just a little PR attempt to let you know they haven't forgotten about you.

The date in the white bar at the bottom means nothing and seems to randomly change with no apparent rhyme or reason.  My “fixed” date was 3/15 like yours, and has never changed.  But the bottom date has gone from 3/16 to 3/17 to 3/23 to 3/25, back to 3/16, then to 3/28, 3/30, back to 3/23 and as of this morning (Sunday 4/3) it says 4/2 in that spot.  
 

I have followed mine from build date (3/22) to ship date (3/25) to ramp arrival date (3/30) to unload date (3/31), and as of today is still sitting at the ramp waiting for a hauler to bring it to the dealer.  Through all of that I have seen no correlation between vehicle events and the date at the bottom of the sticker.

Okay, well damn, I guess that smashed my theory, oh well I'm humble enough to accept being wrong, haha.  However, seems crazy that the date at the bottom means absolutely nothing, must mean something, otherwise why would it just randomly change? I think we just don't know why the date changes, but there must be an answer, things don't change by themselves, must be an explanation.  But, I'm not going to lose any sleep, my truck is almost home and after that, I won't be spending nearly as much time on this topic, I'll be busy spending time in my new truck and getting it setup just like I want and won't give two %^&$s about any of these dates.

I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken...😂

There is nothing mysterious about Window Sticker creation or display. All this talk about dates related to a vehicle's ETA at the ramp, when it was offloaded, etc. is all nonsense. The date in the "Special Order" section is the date the vehicle invoice was created. The date at the very bottom is simply the date that the digital Window Sticker file was retrieved from Ford's database and displayed.

This.  It doesn’t key on your email - you must have placed your reservation/order online through the app/website and that’s not available for super duty.

Thanks, I'll never mention it again...
