Can you derive any information by your order code and order number? I notice there are letters in the codes and I wonder if it will tell you anything. My order number has an L in it, and my order code has an A in it.

Mine starts with Bxxxx. Hey, I called robo lady today, and as of 8/8 I am still C/U.

WTF? I just may go out and buy a GT off the lot. There is a local dealer here that will have 10 GTs in the next couple of weeks.

I am buying 2 GTs and a pony vert from this guy. You would think that I would get just a little better customer service.

I don't trust my dealer and the X-plan. It's strange that we can't get an exact date. My dealer says I will get mine possibly Sept. or Oct.

Hmm...

Join the crowd, I have been waiting since June for a serial, dealer says I may get scheduled this week or next. Lot of variables on when they get pulled.

I ordered mine in early June and the dealer said that I shoudl have a VIN tomarrow but I'm not holding my breath

The order number is randomly assigned by the dealer. Each dealer has their own system of numbering/lettering orders. If you are also referring to order code which I think you mean order type, an "A" means it is an A-plan order.

And remember, if you wanted the 18" Bullitt wheels, for example, you are going to be C/U for a while - they are still listed "late availability".

Just got off the phone with my dealer he said I was the only Mustang GT in there allocation and I was coaded with the higest prporty. He said that he didn't have the vin yet and to call him tomarrow. Does this sound right.

ISELLFORD

Tonight is when Ford does the scheduling for the week so if yours is a buildable order and he has allocation then the system should schedule it.

hurricaneGT

Thanks for the info. Dose it matter that I'm in CT I heard that the northern part of the country was getting less priority than the south?

ISELLFORD

In some cases you are correct. That could mean that your dealer onlly gets 5 and a dealer down south or out in CA gets 15.

Also part of the formula is turn and earn. A dealer who gets 5 and truns them right away earns more allocation while a dealer who gets 5 and sits on them earns less allocation. Ford wants to send the cars where they will turn quicker which is why the "warm" states get more allocation. COnversely we are in the snow belt so we earn more 4x4's.

hurricaneGT

Yes and we need to keep the 4x4 and suv allocation up to keep our wives happy, so that we can have our toys. I should know in a few hous wether or not I have a vin thanks a lot for the info

What are the possible values for Order Type?

Looking at my DORA, it shows an Order Type of 1.

ISELLFORD

Here are the various popular order types:

0 - fleet order
1- retail order
2- stock order
3- Government
A- A-plan
X- X-plan
D- D-plan
Z- Z-plan

There are many other order types which are fleet and ford related.

I just talked to my dealer he said that Ford just dosen't have enough cars to go around. No vin for atleast 5 weeks! This really s#$%! I ordered it on 6-3-05.

mffarrell

Hmm...sounds a bit fishy to me. Maybe your delaer does not have have any allocations left?

hurricaneGT

No the dealer is a friend it that Mustang GT production is only 10% of Mustang production, and ford is sending most of those cares to the southern part of the country (TX,CA,FL)

i have had my 05 mustang on order since march 17th. still no vin or any idea of when i will get to see it. :bang: :angry:

packhater

For all you people that ordered their cars within the last month or two, QUIT CRYIN!!!!!!!!!!! You're lucky if you will even get an 06.

I've been waiting since Feb 2 and there are many of us that have been waiting LONGER. When dealers are getting their GTs in and I'm not, it really SUCKS!!!!!

WTF Ford??????????

ISELLFORD

Ford is building GT's. In the Chigago region it has been about 35% of the mix since Job#1. If you are not getting your car scheduled it is either beacuse your dealer has too many retail GT orders for his allocation, he is a small dealer and has virtually no allocation, or your order has an option or tow that are controlled commodities such as 64W wheel which are not even available yet.
