Tracking Thread!! VIN's with Build Dates
I wanted to have a central thread where we could all go to see VIN's with build dates since we are getting close to production.
I was also wondering what the lowest VIN and build date of a member is?
Fully jacked Platinum! VIN; 10533 with a build date of 11/17.

I just spent ~3 hours at DTP following my truck from the time it hit the Trim department until near completion. It was amazing.
It's been a few years since I've spent that much time in an assembly plant (used to do it all the time and spent many years in/around one, but it's been a while). I forgot how amazingly crazy it is to watch an empty shell of a vehicle turn into a completed truck in roughly 3 hours.
Trim is the first actual assembly department (for the body). It's where the cabs come out of the paint oven and it is the very first place where they start installing components and assembling the vehicle. The chassis (frame, engine, driveline axles, tires & wheels) are assembled in another area and don't meet up with the cab & bed until the interior is about 80% completed.
Once I get my 'experience' organized, I'll put together a timeline of what gets installed when, from trim line #1 to final assembly, and I'll actually put it in it's own thread.
Look for the new thread in the next day or so.

When was your order placed and what Priority Code did the Dealer use to order your truck?
