Chief Dave, I can deal with tyre, but the other errors make the site a bit untrustworthy to me. Vietnam Navy vet - different subject, but hey, you're a chief!

Agreed. I'm not sure how a Ford sponsored/managed site can be that inconsistent or just plain wrong.

Off topic... What did you do in the Navy? I'm going on 22 years now and can't imagine doing anything else....

Machinist Mate in Vietnam. That's another story for another time and place for sure.

Okay, somebody said the date below the MSRP is the shipping date, not build date. The etis site says the '14 I like was built on 6/3/14. That puts it way before the timing chain was changed. Anyway, got to drive some '15s.

I checked it against my last car, which was correct on etis according to Ford. My current F150 shows a build date of 9/7/14 and I can believe that, but I've not asked Ford yet.

12/10/14. KCMO

Originally delivered to a dealer on the jersey shore and at some point ended up at the dealer I bought it at in MA (May '15).

Is there a way to track how many dealers it swapped to/ how long it sat at each?

Having been brought back up, I looked at my window sticker vs the etis numbers and they don't match. the sticker says 07/02/2014. I still never asked Ford, but I'm taking it in tomorrow and may remember to ask while at the dealership.

My door jam sticker says 1/11, This page shows "Primary Feature Build Date" as 2/2/11....

Hope this helps.
