Default Window sticker site gone

I use the ford window sticker site a lot when looking for a new truck, but went to use it today and it's gone! It now days you need to be a dealer or to visit a dealer to get window sticker info. For me, it was the easiest way to find out the gear ratio since salesman are typically clueless. Is there another secret site I could use to get this information?

Interesting, 'cus that link worked just a few days ago when I posted VIN sticker for a forum member interested in a leftover new 2014 F150...

Now, it quickly redirects to a useless site for potential buyers (or those simply curious). Likely due to FoMoCo dealership complaints about folks like us sharing internet data. I'd like to think not, but...

Was this:
http://fordlabels.webview.biz/webviewhybrid/WindowSticker.aspx?vin=

Now this:

When I was shopping for my truck, and indeed each of my cars, I went to www.ford.com. I did the "Build and Price", then went to "summary" and look at "check local inventory". There you can "look at window sticker", and up comes the window sticker of the truck you're looking at.

Hope this will do what you want it to do...

Looks like they upgraded the site and added security.

Like STingray1300 said, you can still look up the sticker for new cars and trucks by pulling the inventory of the dealer from the ford site for new cars, but it looks like if you want the sticker of an old car or truck you are now out of luck.

This sucks as I was using it to find my wife's 13-14 Mustang convertible with the Pony and Winter packages. Guess I will have to do it the hard way now.


I am looking into the Token that they are now using to see if it can be duplicated. might take a while, but will let you guys know if i come up with anything.

It produces a PDF that simply states the window sticker has "not yet been released for this vehicle" - for a 2009.

Seems the backend used for this has changed.

I tried a 2015,2014,2013,2012,2011,2010 and they all worked. 2009 and older however did not.

It looks like it only goes back to model year 2010.
