I ordered the same thing on the 26th of December and I still don't even have a vin yet. Thought I could be patient for my first build, let alone first new vehicle, but it's killing me. Especially when it does not appear to have any logic to when and what order things end up being built. That and there are a few dealers in my area now receiving trucks very similar to my order, its hard to not screw my dealer over and go elsewhere and get it now without the wait and might even be a longer wait now with shortages.

Your window sticker should populate 7 days before build date.

Is there any rhyme or reason to having the VIN but no build date? 12-9 order. Had the VIN a month still in order processing

Call your dealer, if you have a VIN you should have a build date in their system. On the customer side you wont see the build date until a few days before normally around when the window sticker generates.

Yah, sometimes it comes down to dealer allocation numbers and possibly yours just doesn't have as many as the others. Seen many people buy a truck off the lot after ordering because they did not want to wait. Most dealers are ok with it, especially if its off the same dealers lot. At the worst you lose your deposit if you put something down.

I’m in the exact same boat.
Call your dealer. They can see your build date on their system weeks before we can see it on the custom side. Normally once you have a VIN, you have a scheduled date. This is what their system looks like on their side:

Order No Body Code VIN Vehicle Line Primary Secondary Vehicle Location Status Date / Time Start Date End Date ETA Disposition
D327 W1E 1FTFW1ED7MFB10170 F-150 In Order Processing Scheduled to Day (2021-02-19) Ford Dearborn Assembly, MI Jan-29-2021 TBD TBD N/A

and what my tracker looks like:


General
IDD327
Customer Name
Vin1FTFW1ED7MFB10170
Receipt Date2021-01-16
ETA End Date1990-01-01
Production Date
Ship Date
Transit Date
BrandFord
Model Year2021
ModelF-150
Group Order TypeRetail (222R) (OBC8S)
MakeFord
TrimLARIAT
MarketUSA
Status
Primary StatusIn Order Processing
Window Stickerc872f039a072f16247a2ad6dbc3c8ce7
Final Delivery Date

So nothing on the tracker, but dealer sees scheduled to day 2/19/21. Not sure why it doesn't push over to the customer side until around when your sticker is created which is normally 2-4 days before your build. So call your dealer and ask them for your build date. No guarantees it doesn't change but you got something to work from.

Just checked the Ford Tracker, it says that my truck is scheduled for production and now has a window sticker link although still can't get the sticker, this has updated in the last 30 minutes

Dealer says my truck is supposed to be built on Feb 15th. Tracker just changed from In Order Processing to In Production but still no window sticker. I'm just glad that there was a change though!

Exactly what mine did, just changed to in production, called the dealer and they say production date is the 15th, my window sticker link populated although still says no sticker available
