With 6 of us scheduled for Monday I wonder if that means all 6 will actually start their builds on Monday? or is Monday used to mean the entire week?
Are blend numbers sequential and do they actually indicate the order in which the cars will build (or at least very close)?
Does Flat Rock run one or two shifts? And, based on the 10 hour days, is it a four day work week?
Wouldn't it be cool for there to be a web cam at the end of the assembly line where the cars are first turned over??? (hint)
We understand if some of these cannot be answered.

It takes a few weeks for you to have a VIN assigned and get a build date. A little after that it is possible to access an image of your window sticker.

regional allocation SUCKS. florida sells mustangs year round, they can cut in line in front of high priority orders from up north forever...I'd ordered mine the day the 2006 order banks opened, my vin finally got assigned months later-34068- but that one got smashed unloading it from the hauler...the 06 I finally got was like 48,000 ish vin, didnt memorize it

if you are in the south, you have no worries- actually as low as sales have slipped compared to 05/06, you could be in Alaska and have no worries

full info on ordering was found and pasted here:
http://www.blueovalforums.com/forums...tion-problems/

read thru that very lengthy pasting in the first post, and you'll get a excellent idea of how the whole thing works...boring, but interesting.

I dug/hunted everywhere trying to figure out bits and pieces of how dealer ordering works, then found that article from a truck dealer that explained it all in full detail...

read the last few posts in the thread, theres been some headway made, but some of it is temporary...the NADA has a stranglehold on Ford in that dealers are the customer in their eyes, kinda tying fords hands on scheduling due to bad agreements over the years. retails should be accepted first come-first served, but it often dont work that way- not even close...at least its getting better.

the thread below that one I'd spent a lot of time in too...'KZINTI' was a member at blue oval that started the real customer service stuff- he was just a guy on the floor at a plant, but he and a few cohorts started researching internal info that IS available, but not to dealers, and started doing stuff like getting us impatient waiters our window stickers soon as the thing hit 'blend', a couple weeks before the car would even be built...Deysha and the ford social folks helping on various forums are all offshoots of KZINTIs work back in 04~whenever it was ford pulled the plug on him. still think that guy (or gal?) shoulda been put in charge of customer service- at least Ford listened and did something in that direction- Deysha and others have been a huge help to many, its cool to have 'a friend at the factory'

It's showing this:

Front Brake Rotor Diam x Thickness 14.0 x 1.26, 13.2 x 1.4 in ????

So I wonder which one is it? Keep in mind that the one on the rear has a different value...

...
Disc - Rear (Yes or   )                   Yes  
Front Brake Rotor Diam x Thickness        12.4 x 1.4 in 
Rear Brake Rotor Diam x Thickness         11.8 x 0.75 in 
Fuel Tank Capacity, Approx                16.0 gal (16.0 min/16.0max)
...

So now we have five completely different values!

So I guess I'm asking permission to join your Pony Club
