Hey guys, I was going to call my dealer and ask about allocation... problem is idk what the hell I'm talking about. Can someone get me up to speed so I can pretend to be intelligent on the phone? Thanks!

Just got of the phone with my dealer. He told me that my truck is "scheduled to be pulled" tomorrow, which seems to be counter to the Wednesday / Thursday timing, but I won't even try to pretend I understand how the scheduling process works. Indicated that I'm looking at ~8-10 weeks to delivery from the time it is "pulled."

Regardless, first news since I ordered, so I'm happy.

Ordered 1/12/2015, 5.0 Lariat Screw 5.5 bed.

[MENTION=191102]CurryBob[/MENTION] - I looked into some docs here at work and I think Blend Number is the sequence where it is within the line.

***roadpilot disclamier***
What I can tell that is the sequence number. I am am not sure where the sequence starts, (I.E. its probably not 0001) and therefore is probably a number generated to locate if needed.

Ordered 1/8. My VIN just appeared on COTUS (2/19 at 5 p.m. EST).

So keep checking, you folks with late Dec and Jan orders.

Short version: Ford will only let dealers purchase a limited number of high demand vehicles per week/month/quarter ..whatever it is

The longer, and probably more accurate version, is discussed in many different posts.

Grab a beer or two and check out:
