I've seen this at Fords website, when looking at the online "window sticker", while searching dealer inventory.

 

Job #1 refers to the intial build date and specs for a model year. Sometime in the middle of a model year they will have what is referred to as Job #2. This is when the mid model year changes usually take place (charcoal dash panel for IUP, 6.5' box on the F150 SuperCrew, etc).

 

Can you give an example of a Mid year "Job #2" change on a V6 coupe other than the iup charcoal dash option? [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/flag2.gif[/img]

 

I'm at home, but I believe the only other change was the availablity of the chrome exhaust tips option from the factory.

The only other Job #2 change on both GT and V6 was dropping the requirement of the 18G IUP to order 43A Side AirBags.

The Job #2 effective date was December 5.

 

So GT or Coupe with side air bags and no iup after 12/5 the sticker should read "Job#2"? ,and also about the chrome exaust tips? Is that a "Job #2"? Does that also mean with the charcoal dash option the stickers will read "Job #2"? Are there any mechanical changes that are "Job #2" for the V6 or GT? Is "Job #2" only a reference to option requirements and option availability? Thanks

 

Job #2 has much more significance at the Production Level as opposed to the Sales Level.
The Job #2 references do not appear on the actual Window Sticker on the car itself, only on the Ford Website or the Ford system. In those systems, it will read Job #2 if it is built after December 5, whatever the Spec's are.

I cannot comment on the Chrome Tips because they are not mentioned in the Job #2 changes for Canadian orders.
There are no major mechanical changes mentioned, but I am sure there are other small changes on the Production side that are insignificant to the buyer.

 

Thank you for all that information and answers. Rich [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/thumb.gif[/img]
