Ordered my Platinum sometime in November also. The dealer says he has no VIN as yet but it is supposed to go into production around Feb. 8th. So I am assuming delivery around first week of March. Looks like a good 12 week wait which is close to what I expected. Amazing when it only takes about 20 hours to build our trucks.

go here and enter you whole VIN. Your truck should already have been built and should be close to delivery.

I ordered my Ingot Silver, Black interior, Platinum, 3.5L Eco, Max Tow, fully loaded (no park assist, that's for people that don't know how to park) including the extended gas tank on October 23rd. My salesman tells me he doesn't have a VIN# yet, but his manager evidently called Ford and they got a delivery date of February 23. I don't understand why I can't get anything I can plug into Cotus yet, but he keeps telling me Ford's telling them nothing either. I can't wait any better than you guys have or are doing, and like the rest of you, I am jealous of the guys that have already got their 2015's. But at the same time, I hope those that have got theirs, enjoy them while the rest of us hang around waiting on ours! 8>(

Get your order number and dealer number and track it that way. You don't need the vin.

Choose the active park assist and you'll actually save $60. It's a $440 option that gets a $500 credit. So, all of us who can't park have an extra $60!

Yup - this works great! I'm able to track my 2nd order placed 12/31/14 despite no VIN yet. My first order, I canceled to change from 302A to 501A.

That is about right. That is about right. Cotus goes into production for about 10 days before build. Go to wwwqa.cotus.ford.com and pull up your window sticker. On the bottom right you will see some numbers like this. 2201501061299 Those numbers are your build date unless something goes wrong. 2015 = year 01 = month 06 = day.

Just checked COTUS and must have just updated, my truck is built and now waiting shipment still with an ETA of 2/8/15.

Started production last Friday 1/9/15 and was done yesterday 1/16/15 so 7 days.
