I hope this works..... I’m on mobile and didn’t see a place to reply to your comment.

Ford did not email me the VIN. The dealer gave it to me with the build date.

Does that mean anything ?

Yeah it does....thanks.

Kinda means my salesman doesn't know what he is talking about, but my Spidey Sense had been tingling with him a while...

Well I called Ford today to see if they could give me a VIN # (no confidence in my dealer) - she said if I could give her the order #, she could look up my VIN.
So....called the dealer & apparently ground the entire place to a halt by simply asking for the order # - maybe they'll call tomorrow, but based on their performance so far, I doubt it.

She was absolutely going to call me back today with the order #, but that didn't happen...

What is the name of your dealer, the zip code it's in, the date you put an order in, and your initials? I'll see if I can find it.

Dealer is County Ford (Graham NC), zip is 27253, ordered 3-1-21 (I guess they put it in that day?), initials are DRN.

Thanks bunches for the offer.

Order number K838

Looks like it's a Star White King Ranch with the Chrome Package?

By George - I think you found it!
It will be interesting (frustrating?) with all these shortages.
I think I ordered about every option you could pile on it except for the block heater!

Thanks a bunch!

If that's the case, you should have just ordered the block heater too.

You're welcome.

Don't ask my why I didn't (I was asking myself the same question).

When I ordered my 2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland, I think the only option I could have added was $400 or so for Fire Red Mist paint (or something like that).

When I bought my 2007 Ford Focus ST, it had every option you could get except automatic (I wanted the 5-speed) & the Sony stereo (didn't want that subwoofer taking up half my trunk). The salesman laughed stating they had never seen a $20,000+ Focus!

When I bought my 2003 Ford Ranger Edge Extended Cab 4x4, I think the only thing I didn't get was the off road package.

'Course, back then everybody was giving massive discounts!

Just cleaned the Ranger up yesterday - clayed it & getting ready to polish & wax - now I don't want to sell it!

My order went in yesterday for a fairly loaded Platinum. Dealer told me to expect10 weeks. I am being hopeful but after everything I have read...
