My build date says it was Feb 11th, which was a Saturday... strange.
I also ordered a Crew, FordEtis however shows the order as Double Cab (3/4 Door).
Guess I'm visiting my dealer tonight after work. I know Internet published stuff gets mixed up, hope that's all it is, or I will be re-ordering and doing this all over again
I was finally able to get my serial number from the chat option on the Ford Canada Facebook page. They responded within a couple minutes!
I tried that window sticker page, but it said unavailable.
EDIT: I was looking over the dealer sheet. There is a list of trucks they have on order. Under 'STATUS' most of them say 'Sub To Plant'
In that column mine says 'Locked In' Does anyone know what that actually means?
Holy, that's a long time for the VIN and delivery.
My platinum was ordered Jan 6th. It was built Feb 11th. I just came back from my dealer w the window sticker and they checked that status of my order. It's says awaiting transport, via convoy. Estimated delivery says Mar 1. This is pretty quick in my eyes, weather sucks here anyways, so it will just be a garage queen anyways until the salt covered roads get washed by rains. I have a 2002 that I use for my winter rat.

Ford isn't a 9-5 M-F operation. They run 24 7. Guys worry about having trucks built on weekends or holidays. We work the same as everyone else, just some people work different hours than "bankers".

I work Saturdays as well, but....
I always thought the weekends were National holidays in Kentucky! A day where all could fire up their moonshine stills and get some "home" work accomplished.
I got on COTUS tonight which seems to be a nightly ritual, low and behold It sad my 250 is in production with an estimated delivery date of 3/10/17. The only problem with that is I will be out of town the following week. The dealer will have plenty of time to look it over. I was also able to get the window sticker. Can't wait!!!!
Apparently my truck was Railed up from Kentucky to Buffalo (NY) and is currently being loaded on a transport hauler to my dealer. Buffalo is 90mi away, but dealer said there probably are other stops prior to them.
But he said "it looks like it will be here this week, get ready!"
I must say, this is quick and I wasn't expecting it until next week. Not complaining
^ And the "Rail" part was NOT on my Invoice, it clearly states "Convoy".
Also, COTUS (either one) still no workie, so that site is about as useful as nothing.
I was about to give up on Cotus especially after the Dealer told me it was going into production on the 24th. It was to easy to check it at night while watching TV, I'm glad I did. Looks like it will be out of production by the 24th.
Timing depends a lot more on dealer allocation than actual production. Mine was from a high volume dealer with a lot of allocation. Time from order to delivery was 5 weeks 6 days.
