Anyone else have that feeling? My build date was 11/6....The sticker is now on the Ford locater. And the Ford app is now giving the activation option. So I’m assuming it’s done. Did I hear the OKTB was yesterday? Or maybe tomorrow “12th”? This waiting game is driving me nuts. My productivity at the office is starting to drop.

Good luck and Godspeed, Tireman! I’m pretty sure my order hasn’t even been picked up yet.

Mine was completed and my build date was 6 days after yours, so I'm sure yours is completed. I know they had a shut down Thursday but were told to report back to work Monday. Our trucks should not be effected but would like to know my ETA.

My ordering guy will be back Monday and he is real good on getting me the updates, we should already have an ETA.

agreed, we should already have an ETA...let me know what your guy says. I’m trying not to pester my dealership about it haha. Knowing it’s just sitting in a parking lot is driving me crazy. It’s become a major distraction. I’ve already added the VIN to my Ford app and attempted to track it.

Yep me too.

To bad they don't let you just go pick them up at the plant.

2015 took about 3 weeks to get to my dealer. Don't really remember how long on my 18 took to be delivered.

We will be some of the very first to get 2021s delivered in our states. I hope anyway we are. Lol

PS
you work at a tire store or something?

You could say I was born into a tire family. I’m in generation 4. I’m responsible for the wholesale distribution facility in Nashville, Tn. We do retail too, but I’m a wholesale fan. Retail anything is tough business.

And yes, it looks like we will be one of the first to get ours. If you look in the inventory search some of the stickers even say “do not ship” written in big red letters across the sticker. Out of the 5 at this particular dealer, maybe 3 have the do not ship on it. Don’t know what that means.

JD&JD on this site had that on his.

With Stock orders, if they fail some part of the QC, they are not usually fix very quickly. That is to help keep shipping from happening till whatever it is gets corrected.

He finally got a cleared window sticker but his truck was built something like 23 Oct.

I was just wondering how you all received your VIN number. If you could please advise me I would appreciate any help and wisdom. Waiting on a KR and trying to keep miles down on my 18 Lariat.

I got mine from my dealer. Once Ford accepts your order they assign a VIN to it. About a week before the scheduled build you can view the window sticker here, unless it's a stock order.
