You can update my vin, got my build date this morning for vin 140748. Build date of 8/3.
Weird, I got part of my window sticker to come up this morning. It is the secondary 2010 Government Safety Ratings label, not the window sticker itself. But it did have the build date on it, atleast!

Called ford CS last week told me they would kick it up to a supervisor and get back to me in 5 business days. Never heard back. Emailed my dealer told me he would check on it Thursday because they can only get updates on Thursday. Never heard back. Called ford again last night put me on hold after I gave them all my info AGAIN they came back and now magically the car is in transit but no new eta. So when I asked where is it? Not sure, asked when did it go to in transit? Dont know. I guess they figure this will buy them a few weeks.

Arg, I'm going nuts! Its been 4 weeks and still no contact from my dealer, no VIN#, no nothing... and then I read about some lucky ones receiving delivery in 5 - 7 weeks. What do you guys think? Their computers update Thursdays, correct? Give them a call tomorrow? I should be able to at least get an order number, right?

Ok, my sticker did show up. I must have caught them a little too early to get them both on the website.
And for all of the X Plan guys that ordered their car, your name does go in the option box on the window sticker. My order is an X Plan order and my name is there.

Jerry only once I think they answer normal. All the rest of the time including last night I got the "Oh thats great" or "thats exciting". So I had to stop her and tell her no its not exciting. I know that they were just feeding me a line to try and tide me over with the in transit bit. Thats what makes it even more frustating.
When do I get to and a signature?

Only if the dealer enters it as an x-plan order. Mine didn't.

It took me about 4 weeks to get a VIN, then another 3-4 weeks for a build date, so yeah.

You can't judge people who's getting their cars in 5-7 weeks, I've said this like 15 million times in this thread... it's going to depend on what your dealership is allocated if you ordered 6/1 or later.

How is everyone's ride holding up.
(P.S. What happened with jokers? Banned?)

I think Jokerstars got spanked for being rude! Lol Yeah, also your order will depend on options, and color. Things like Brembos can delay your order. There was a posting on the forum, that there was one week, when Ford wasnt taking orders for Shelbys or Brembo brakes. Ronn

And yeah, some options (Brembos, EP, for example) have been selling better than expected. Additional options that require a trip to the vehicle personalization center will also add time.
He had that avatar pic for so long I couldn't resist.
