2016 Tracking Thread
Yes that is all standard stuff. If it is something you want to push back on you can push the dealer to take the $$$ out of their end (i.e. the holdback). However, on the Fuel Charge, I mean, it's gas. Whether they put it in for you and pass along the cost or you put it in yourself you're still going to have to pay for it. Now if they charge you something stupid like $100 for 5 gallons of gas, then yeah it would be worth throwing a flag on that nonsense, but otherwise I'd leave that out of the discussion. Just my take on it.
Also no update for me either. ETA was 11/16. Built 10/26. Still at the plant. My dealer now has trucks on the lot that were built 2 days after it, and others in transit that were built a week after it. I think I'll be lucky if it's this month now, considering the transit times to California.
Coaster it will tighten up over some time. The double cab portion really freaked me out but I was calmed after seeing my window sticker to see I indeed ordered a Supercrew. After the truck is built it will populate more each week. You sort of have to click on the purple text "There are more minor features for this vehicle, click to expand this list" section and as first there will me minor additions. After a week or so it will populate way more.
So On Friday I was told by my dealer it would be here early this week. Now the dealer says he only shows it as in transit. Chad sent me an update with it having an arrival eta of 11/27-12/1 now. Originally my eta was 11/15.... I've never ordered a vehicle before so I do t have anything to compare it to. Has anyone else ordered through Ford or another company before? Is this normal to have such delays and lack of knowledge/communication. It seems unbelievable to me how trucks can sit for weeks or longer after being built without getting delivered.

These are tough to wait for, but I always think about it, and its all first-world issues. You are waiting for a $50k+ vehicle to be delivered. I thought doing this a second time would be easier, but its not. At this point my truck is ahead of the january 2016 estimated by the dealer, but who knows how long it will be in "awaiting shipment" status. I figured I won't bother Chad until next week for an update...
My window sticker appeared 6 days before the build. Which was about 1 to 2 days after it appeared on Etis. They have changed the VIN lookup a few times but this link still works for now.

Another I used when Ford was fooling with their changeover from 2015 to 2016.

So I've been trying every window sticker site I can find and even these two above say "Access to the window sticker has been restricted on this site." So I can't seem to get a sticker at all. If anyone has any ideas on what I can try, let me know...otherwise...oh well. And my ETIS updated 2 days after the build date and has all the options on it as ordered.
My updated info is as follows:
Ordered: 10/19/15
Received VIN: 10/30/15
Build Date: 11/11/15
ETA/Delivery: per Chad 12/3/15...hopefully......
Factory: Dearborn

I have similar dates as you and I just tried http://researchmaniacs.com/VIN-Numbe...cker/Ford.html and it worked...
Yep, tried it to but still only the access has been restricted message. Crazy seems like most people can get a sticker but me. Will continue to wait patiently...
