Yeah, then sorry. You'll have to go all hacker to track your truck. Just connect into the DOT camera system and monitor CB radio traffic...

Simple. I classify everyday as Saturday. And I don't have a lock on the liquor cabinet. And I have a great wife to track the other details. Maybe not willingly, but if I screw it up enough she does. But I still can't loose track of the time from April 23 (order date) to the magical mystical imaginary date of delivery, build, vin. Maybe my order is stuck in area 51.

HouseMouse, when did your truck get built? Mine showed as 8/12 and according to the dealer was at the railhead in Mesquite on Monday waiting for transport to Bill Utter Ford in Denton. I would have thought that yours would have been on the same train

Ford chat just gave me an update. My first reschedule! yay... 
Slipped from 9/27 to 10/14. That's a 2 1/2 week delay over the first estimate (which never seemed realistic). Assuming this estimate holds, it will be 10 weeks from order to build and 12 weeks from order to delivery.
