Just Ordered my First Ford F-150 Lariat 5.0

[Popeye67]

Got order confirmation email from Ford Tuesday morning. Went to Ford customer service chat. They said I was unscheduled/clean and told me my priority code was 03. What are my chances of being scheduled for production next week? Coyote 5.0, Black Appearance Pack, 3.73, mobile office, FX4 Off-road, spray bed liner, and wheel well liners. Any feedback would be much appreciated!

Dealers have a code they apply to an order. The system is 01-09 reserved for hi level Ford mukety-muks. Your dealer can use 10-19. I forget the rest but they go up to 99... When I ordered my truck Mid-April 21) they put it in as a 19. Once I figured out the priority system I went into my dealer (late April) and said OK, if you'll up the code to a 10 and deliver my truck by 1 July, I'll add $1000 to the agreed upon price. Well they did and I got it... 1 July, and I did.

There’s people in these forums who have orders as late as October and November who have yet to be scheduled. My order January 19th has yet to be scheduled either.
Based off released information fords having issues meeting the demand for the lariats with the BAP. So I’d say you chances of being scheduled over the next few weeks is very slim.

So Ford customer service said my priority code was 03. My salesman was actually The Fleet Sales Manager at the dealership. I wonder if that helps my chances of getting scheduled for production?

Its really hard to say. My order went in on 12/27. 5.0 Lariat with the BAP. Truck got delivered exactly 3 months later. I pick it up on Friday. Good luck!

Well, as I understand it 01-09 can only be given by a Ford level guy... So your fleet sales guy must be well placed. My experience says your chances are really good for delivery sooner rather than later...

Ahh.. I remember that enthusiasm.

It's only a matter of time until he gets depressed and jaded like the rest of us.

Congrats on the order! I have now had my 2023 for one year and I’m still as excited about it as the day I got it. Granted it was my first ever brand new purchase so this one likely is a bit special. The Coyote is the most joyous engine I’ve ever owned/driven in any domestic automobile. I think you’ll find it’s well worth the wait .

If it is a clean build it should go pretty quick with a 03 code.I ordered mine in sept 21 and dealer gave me a 10 code and I picked in up in feb 22.
