As for '17s this may not apply since that pipeline is still producing product at KC. But for '18s right now it seems to be 'radio silence'.

My 2017 was built on 7/22. COTUS shows awaiting shipment, however the estimated delivery date has disappeared from the website est Del date was previously 8/12). Does anyone know what if anything the date disappearance means?

My fleet buyer said my 2018 1FTEX1CB9JKC***** is scheduled for build this week. I suspect they don't know what they are talking about. It's a KC truck and you guys say they won't be building until 8/14. Could fleets be built earlier at KC?

Ordered my 2011 GT500, waited 47 days.
Ordered my 2014 GT500, waited 112 days.
If the F150 shows up on the current estimated delivery date, it will be 85 days.
Buying off the lot will get a truck faster, but is it really what you want, or what you are willing to settle for ??
Spending this time buying mods for the truck, & way too much time on this site.
