Just in case there are some that don't know, the serial number (last few numbers of the VIN) have nothing to do with the order they're built. The serial number is simply the order the cars were assigned a VIN.
Also, don't forget it's called a VIN. Not a 'VIN number'.
That would make it a Vehicle Identification Number number.

I'm trying to find that out another way. My good friend's daughter is an engineer at Ford and knows the Boss's boss. I asked her to find out when production starts. I should know Monday or Tuesday.

The middle digit in your examples is the check digit. It is calculated based upon the other digits in the complete VIN. It's purpose is to verify that the VIN is legit (i.e. no errors were made in copying it into the system).

not kidding, I received a VIN and build week close together. I was thinking that the VIN comes before production.
PM your order number and dealer name and Monday morning you will have a better picture.

It must have already started according to this post from Cust. serv. On 2/3/11:
"At this time there are no material holds or any other holds. However, there are many factors to an order not moving as fast as others. I you’d like, send me your order # and your dealer name via private message and I can track it for you."
It was supposed to start 1/18/2011.
