Truck just built, says 23 days to deliver.

If you tracked yours, how accurate was that original estimate on the web page https://shop.ford.com/vehicleordertracking#/

Thanks

I do not know, but I have one on order so I'm curious too. Can you tell me what day you ordered your truck? My Dealer has not even given me my vin#.

Meaningless, because each order is subject to a local trucking firm at some point. Figure plus or minus 7 - 14 days.

We ordered a 2019 Fusion Energi which came in weeks late and we took a 2018 in the meantime.

I ordered mine in the 3rd week of December for delivery in March. Dealer gave me my VIN# on Thursday, I tried Thursday and Friday to enter the VIN# on your suggested website but got nothing. Yesterday I tried again and it went thru...was able to print off the "window sticker" and it gave me an approximate 19 day timeline with an estimated delivery date of March 12th to the dealer. Don't know if that helps or not. I live just 90 miles from the Kansas City F-150 plant, so delivery time after it's built is minimal.

From the point you have a VIN it is generally pretty accurate. If you track by train it can be frustrating, train shipping is low priority and vehicles often sit in rail yards along the way. In my case my arrival date changed 3 times my truck came in 2 days longer than the 63 days. Prior to VIN lots of things can happen, mostly tied to priority assigned to truck.

What is your build date? There is a long number on the bottom right of the sticker in bold. What is it?

The tracking site is usually 1 to 3 days behind, you dealer can get updates daily that are more accurate....( V V R )..

I was just at my dealer yesterday. I got my VIN on 2/21. Anyway, was talking to my guy, and as of yesterday, he couldn't pull a window sticker either. Ordered mine on 1/31. Will an option pop up somewhere on the tracking site to get the window sticker?
TBH, I'm in no hurry, but would like to keep tabs on the progress. Not overly excited, but did ask for a photo when it's still on the truck.

2202002213249 I have no idea how you decipher a "build date" out of that.

Anyone else still getting "system error" on the tracking site?
