I think so. Don't know a lot about this whole COTUS thing and how to track everything.

I have a form titled "Vehicle Order Confirmation". On this form I can see a dealer code (F52018) and an order number (0004). It also says Priority 10.

I called 3 dealers today. All 3 said they have plenty of allotment left. Is there a way to check they are telling the truth?

That's all you need to plug into cotus. Try it your order may be in there.

Poop. It's not in there yet.

Does Priority 10 have any particular meaning?

Nice build!
I hate the waiting game too.... At first you tell yourself, I'll be fine, I will just not pay attention to the whole thing, it will arrive when it arrives and they will let me know.
THEN slowly it creeps into you.....and you find yourself staying up late nights looking at forums, Google image searches, YouTube, etc..and realize that you have seen EVERYTHING that's out there about your new vehicle. Slowly the wait is eating up your brain, even at work, all you're thinking about is your new ride.
It gets better around T - 7 days, when its psychologically so close.

Haha. This is EXACTLY what I'm imagining the next few months will be like.

CAN NOT WAIT.
Well, I am going to make you feel better. You will get yours before I get mine.
I haven't found a Platinum in stock to look at yet. I was at two different dealers today. I want to do that before I order.
Congratulations on your order.

What truck are you going to order?
You know what I am thinking they might have exaggerated the date. Seems a little fast to me too. lol My order is not going to be a crazy one. Its a XLT 3.5EB 3.55 gears and 4x4 Crew in silver. Only major options are Max Trailer Package and Tow mirrors. Oh yeah and back up camera. Thats about it.
