What was your Priority Code when ordering?

it was dark out when we took the truck over to get gas. I decided to try out the 4WD, so looked down to pop it in neutral and saw nothing. I’m not sure if these letters are screened on or are translucent. I’ll know when I get in and get a good look at them. It’s just funky to have ambient lighting and a couple of backlit switches next to it on the panel, yet not have something which has traditionally had backlighting for 50 years (I even have it on my Mustang)!

My salesman did remark about how quickly mine came saying they normally aren't this fast. I guess I just got lucky ordering what I did when I did it.

My order looked like this.
Priority 99
Order type 1
Order Code 101A

I checked Cotus this morning and my truck is still awaiting shipment, but my delivery date moved up a week.

My order status changed to In Transit in Cotus. What I'm confused about is that the end date for Awaiting Shipment was March 29th, does that mean that it's been in transit for two days now?

since we were built on what seems to be the same blend date, you could well be already on a rail car. My status has changed
only as a 4 days earlier delivery & is till awaiting shipment. Does anyone know of a link to a thread that is tracking Ford Incentives, I will be looking for a little Ford love
