Tracking Thread!! VIN's with Build Dates
Just checked COTUS and I'm still showing "in production." But when I look at PALSAPP (JCT), its showing as "PENDING." Does that mean my truck has been built, and is sitting on a yard somewhere? Or is it a preemptive deal where Ford sends the truck info/VIN to JCT early to get the transit process started before the truck actually gets there?

I have no idea why, buy my truck is not in COTUS, yet my dealer today got me both a VIN and a window sticker. Is this normal? He stated it is going through the plant shortly and ETA May 20th, a few weeks sooner than I anticipated. Fingers crossed he isn't blowing smoke!
Is there a general consensus on what plant produces the better truck?
My blend date is 4/24/18
