Need my left door vin # decoded

This is for Number Dummy. I have attached (I hope) a photo of my left door jam Warranty Number (which I think is the same as the vin number/). So, if you could decode it for me I would be appreciate it. Also, please tell me what is the difference in an F100 and a F250.

thanks in advance and Happy New Year ( you can never leave the forum).
