Is there an expiration on the private cash offer that you received? Should I wait to owner sign up as delivery date gets closer?

I know "In Transit" could mean anything from sitting at the Ramp waiting to be loaded on a train, to in route, to sitting at a TDSI location waiting to be loaded on a truck. Some on here have waited less than a week, others have waited more than 3 weeks before delivery. Hopefully my dealership will give me the rail car #.
It's not clear to me how knowing that your truck is on rail car #43526137419 is going to help that much.
But good luck with that...

Get this. I called ford service Wednesday to find out the status of my truck. I was told it is still awaiting shipment with no Eta. This morning I drove thru the dealership and there my truck sits. Umm, while I am very happy about this, it makes me wonder what is really going on. That was one fast train delivery. FYI, I live about 400 miles from the plant, and was told they will ship it via train. Oh well, still I'm happy it's here. It was a long wait, as I ordered this thing on Oct 23rd.

Yes. Mine expired 5 or 6 weeks after I received it, well before the truck was due to be delivered. It has since expired. I would wait until two weeks before estimated delivery date then sign in to owners site. Keep in mind that not everyone gets this offer when signing in, appears to be random based on ford marketing's input.

Do you just have to sign in and look or do you have to request F150 brochure? Is the brochure request on owner.ford.com also or main ford site?

Do both! I think the brochure request is key. Which is on the main Ford site

Good Luck!

This is truly one of the biggest perks about what I do, and I look forward to working with a new crop of proud owners who are now anxiously awaiting their trucks just as you were.

Now that you're officially part of the family, be sure to browse Ford Owner for tons of helpful information and advice about the newest additions to your garage: http://owner.ford.com/ And, as always, feel free to drop me a line about any questions or concerns you might have. You know where to find me.

Hi Chad, ordered new XLT VIN # 1FTM1EF5GFA49320 on 10/27 still no truck! How can some orders be taken & delivered in a little over 30 days? ( read this blog ) also what's the story on these rebates ? Is the dealer going give me the run around when I mention I read it here?
