Tracking Thread!! VIN's with Build Dates

Yeah - I guess I'm one of the unlucky ones.
Ordered 02/27
Finished In-Order Processing 04/13
In Production 04/22
Awaiting Shipment 04/27
In transit now
EDD keeps getting pushed back, from 05/02, to 05/08, to 05/19, and now to 05/20. I figured ordering a truck to central Texas would be quick given the volume sent down here, but that certainly hasn't been the case.

Basically, in my case anyway. It can be different for everyone... the actual assembly only took a day, order processing completed on 4/26, but the blend date on my window sticker was 5/4.. so it was actually blended in to the assembly line yesterday and completed yesterday. So I guess I would say it takes 7 days to prep everything for assembly and 1 day to actually assemble it.... but I could very well be wrong on everything I just said.. lol.
Mine went into production yesterday 5/4 but my blend date is 5/13. So I guess there's no actual production occurring between 5/4 to 5/13. (you're right. it must be prep and getting qued up)
I wonder why my window sticker shows Convoy. Is Convoy only for the trip from the factory to the train station? I assume from Kansas City to Portland, OR the majority of the journey will be by train.

Mine has been in order processing for a week with an EDD of 6/12. As of today, it's coming up with "No matching vehicle found. Please verify your input and try again." Hope it's just a website issue right now......

End of 2018 Order Intake?
Hello Everyone. I ordered an XLT Supercrew on 4/11/18 and have an ETA of 6/09/18. I thought about it for the last week and after speaking with a few people I am going to "go big or go home" and order a 2018 Platinum tomorrow rather than taking the XLT. My dealer doesn't have a problem with it. I was just wondering, does anyone know when the 2018 production year will stop taking orders? I probably won't get my truck now until September! Any thoughts?

Mine had a EDD of 4/28 and mine is doing the same thing as yours today, "No matching vehicle found." I called the dealership 2 days ago and they don't know where it's at.

If you order tomorrow and add 9 weeks, it would be somewhere in July. 2018 F-150 final order due date is 8/03/18, so you have time. To be perfectly honest, the only reason I'm participating in this thread and the only reason I have my Lariat on order, is because I settled 3 years ago for my XLT. We spend enough time in our vehicles, so you might as well enjoy what you drive. That's my opinion. Settling and regret is one of the worst feelings to have everytime you drive a vehicle. Good luck with your decision and hope you enjoy the new truck when it comes in.

2018 Raptor SuperCab
I ordered a 2018 Raptor SuperCab on 4/20. The dealer ensured me that he had remaning allocations and that i was getting one of those allocations.
Since then, all I get on COTUS is "No matching vehicle found. Please verify your input and try again."
I have called Ford Performance who tell me that they see my order and it is listed as “unscheduled-clean”. But I have yet to get a VIN. I am starting to get nervous.
Should I be concerned or is this normal?
