So far I haven't been able to track down how often COTUS is updated. I hate being the guy that keeps hitting refresh... Do we know if it is LIVE or if it has an update cycle overnight?

Thanks,

-Tim

It looked to me that cotus was at best nightly update. It is not real time from what I can tell.

One question about ETIS. I looked at it and put my VIN in. I listed out all the minor features and see this for axle (partial cut and paste of list):

Standard Electric Starter Motor
With Remote Starter
With 49 State/Non Green State Req
Emission Compliance - USA
3.55
Less Elect Locking Differential
With 8.8 Axle

MOD 5.0L-4V DOHC SEFI NA
Single Exhaust
With Chrome Exhaust Pipe Extension

I ordered electronic locking 3.55. What do you make of that?? How does the locking diff work?? Where would I find the control for it?? I did not think non-locking was an option for any ratio other than the base 3.31.

COTUS shows my truck "delivered" as of the 27th so I expect to get the call soon.


In and For Christ,
Glen

Default Cotus

Does COTUS work only on custom ordered vehicles?

IOW, can I use COTUS to track vehicles that a dealer ordered for stock?

An even better question is: does COTUS work for 2016 F150s yet?

I have seen no cases where COTUS had updates for any 2016 order.

How foolish I was to imagine that a Fortune 100 company could effectively manage their inventory tracking portal.

Chad, what have you to explain this?

Trying to remember if Chad's title included Executive Vice President, Inventory Tracking.

How do you access COTUS? Can the average buyer get a username and password?

Figured out the problem. The link in this thread is wrong. Use http://www.cotusb.ford.com/
