If you ordered a FX4 that includes a locker so maybe that's why its not there. I did not order a FX4 because I was going to change the shocks anyway.

I was on a local dealers website and found a truck with a locker in it. I took the VIN and put it in COTUS and is showed all the features EXCEPT the locker which I don’t understand why

It sure did, and when it came back, my order had moved to "In Production"

Details : Order date 01/29/18.. In 6 days I had a vin and it showed up on cotus. Dealer told me build week of 03/26/18...& and delivery 04/16/18... today 03/21/moved to "In Production" no Window Sticker yet. Can someone recall how much time until window sticker becomes visible..? plus what is a blend date ?

thanks

Your window sticker should be available the day after it goes into production. It will not be available the first day. The blend date should be up top of the sticker and it that is your build date. It should be small numbers.

My truck just went in transit today and my delivery date went from 4/5 to 4/11. It will be delivered by Cassens Transport according to the visibility report. Plus I got a copy of my invoice. Getting closer.

Cotus didn`t show my Tow Mirrors or the 3.73 rear end but I just got my window sticker this morning and they are on it.

Well, still no movement. Marked in transit and nothing in Jack Cooper. My Inventory Manager is on vacation through next Thursday, so I’m in the dark now until it magically shows up... hopefully before truck month expires.

Same here.

Says 7 days to delivery. Haven't bugged the dealer to see what info he shows.

Look like a lot of your orders are headed into production. Awesome!

Interesting how how some trucks that were ordered way after mine are scheduled to arrive way before. Do I sound jealous? Lol

Funny story, in the weeks leading up to my order I had been negotiating with a different dealer. That dealer said he was going to order my truck anyway and if we didn’t strike a deal he would put it on the lot as inventory. I ended up getting a better deal elsewhere but I now notice that the initial dealer now has my exact truck on their website. Seems about right for my luck!
