This has been one of my favorite threads but has turned into one I need to stay away from for a while. Started being very patient with the process. Ordered 3/19, EDD 5/24, then 5/21. I hadn't been checking it regularly until I see posts here about others moving into production, window stickers, etc. Checked just now and mine went into production. No window sticker available yet (normal when it first moves into production), but now find myself wanted to go keep clicking until it shows up. Have to step away and be more patient. Now I see why several were patient in the beginning but when changes start happening all you can do is keep checking.

I do like seeing others progress for sure. Maybe not their agony, but am starting to understand it.

Well gentlemen, my truck just changed to In Transit and my EDD just moved up from 5/3 to 5/2! Also, the palsapp site now shows it as Dispatched. Getting closer!

I'm new here and have a F-150 on order. Can someone help me with the Ford COTUS? I have the VIN #. My problem is I can't find the Ford COTUS link that works. I googled it and go to it then enter my VIN and nothing happens. I don't have time to read through 1187 pages on this thread to find the answer. Thank you for any help.

sometimes when i click on the cotus link from google, it doesn't work. But when i type it into the browser, www.cotus.ford.com it will work. Then just enter your VIN into it and it should tell you where you stand. Just checked mine, the site seems up.

I'm assuming you live in the US and not Canada..I believe there is a different link for Canada. here is the US link: http://www.cotus.ford.com/
You should enter your full VIN # in and click Track Vehicle

Thanks TheBeatles and EA20. I don't know where my salesman is coming up with his info, bc it doesn't match the info that COTUS states. Salesman says they'll have my truck in by May 7th. COTUS shows a delivery date of May 14th and that it's in production now. The salesman did have the production right for the week of April 30th. I thought he was being overly optimistic about the delivery date. Once they do recieve my truck then I'll have to wait for them to install the Katskin leather. Those additional 2 or 3 days will seem like forever knowing that they have my truck at the dealership.
One more question for you guys in the know.......when will my window sticker show up on COTUS? Thanks again to you all!!

The link for my window sticker appeared the day mine went in to production. When I clicked it, I would get a message that it wasn't available yet. The next day, my window sticker was actually available and showed when I clicked the link.

So maybe the window sticker shows up once the truck has actually been built?

Just now clicked on the window sticker again and now it shows up. LOL Pretty cool to see the window sticker for the first time.

I was also able to view my actual window sticker the day after it went to "In Production" status. About a week before the actual blend/build date
