Definitely need to bring your dealership up to date. My dealer didn't think there would be VINs either but per my request I had him check a couple of weeks ago and indeed he found a VIN and build week. He then called me about a week ago without me prodding him and told me the build date was confirmed to be July 27. So your dealer appears to out of the loop or mine is pulling a huge ruse on me. I am betting it's your dealer but time will tell I guess.
Yea I also have a Vin and a build date of July 25th on mine,last 4 of the vin being 6374

Your status by order number/dealer number. Even if it's a stock order.

We ordered so many trucks that the factory shutdown has been shortened. Edmunds reported today.

I just check my order on the Fleet site. My order received date was May 4th, Priority code is G2 (2nd week of July) but it has a date under the priority code of 07/25/16. Order Status = Production Locked In (options cannot be changed and order cannot be cancelled) Order Status Date = June 3rd.
Note - I cannot get any information out of the Ford Custom Order Tracking site.

Interesting document. I am in week 30, Aug 15 stock. Does the note below date mean no retail trucks yet? Is your truck stock or retail?

Rub the Big Blue Oval and a genie will tell us when the "Okay to Buy" will be upon us. A mystical, magical date for sure ever elusive to those of us with Retail Orders. In the new truck world each announcement puts our build dates off eons, at least for the time being.
