Your car isn''t even scheduled to start production until 28FEB11 so at best it will be produced 01MAR11 (and even that's a stretch). Barring any more production delays and awaiting the "OK to BUY", and even if your dealer in Taylor Mi drove to the plant to pick it up, there's absolutely no way you're going to take delivery by the end of this month unless the delivery truck has a flux capacitor intalled; at best it will be a week into March.

You should know, either you misunderstood your manager or he's giving you wrong info.

How did you know that I was buying it from Taylor Ford? Lol
He said that I should have it by the end of the month because their dealer due date is the 30th or something to that effect. He did go on and say sometimes they get them a little earlier and at times a little later. My first payment due on my loan is 4/3 I hope I take delivery of the car before I have to make my first payment. Do you work for Ford?

I'm psychic.
Sounds like an awesome dealer. He's really bending over backwards adding 2 extra days to February.
Bingo!

No. But at this point it doesn't matter what the priority code is because it has a VIN and a build date already. Priority codes only matter on orders that aren't serialized (ie have a VIN) or scheduled. The reason you are getting it quick is because it's a dealer stock order that they already put in; Ford's not pulling retail (customer) orders until the "OK to Buy" is given. "A" orders usually refer to "A-Plan" orders.
Yes, the lower the number, the higher the priority. 10 is the highest that can be assigned at the dealer level. Yours is an 80. But like I said, that's neither here nor there -- the order is already scheduled.
One week before the scheduled build date ie about 20FEB11

The order confirmation says priority 10 that's where I got that number from.

You should be able to pull up your sticker about a week before the build date. Can vary a bit. I recommend doing it just to make sure the order is 100% correct. Anyway, no need to be concerned about that, my car was also ordered as stock. Dealers sometimes do this to get it built sooner than the okay-to-sell date, others may not bother with the option and just always set it to stock. Retail VS Stock doesn't affect much. The only two things I know of is that Ford doesn't pull retail orders until after okay-to-sell and also that two cars with the same priority at the same dealership, one stock, one retail, the retail gets priority over the stock.
