how long does it take

How long does it normally take to get a VIN number. I ordered my F250 LARIAT January 16, 2017. I thought maybe a month. That's how long it took for my Edge in 2011.

I got my VIN just shy of a month. Call your dealer up, don't rely on the online cotus sites.

Do you know if you are getting a job 1 or job 2? Just curious because I believe mine is being built the same week.

Trucks built (as of now) starting 2/20 are Job 2 trucks.

My timeline is the same as yours, up to the window sticker. When I run my VIN, it says the sticker hasn't been released yet. :/ Every other date you mentioned is the same as mine.

I just got off the phone with the Salesman he said they didn't have the VIN but the truck is supposed to start production on Feb 24th. He said to call the 24 and they should have the VIN. That sounds kind of backwards to me but that's his story and he is sticking with it.

You ordered your truck - about the same day as me

I received mine, about two weeks later.
My truck was built 2/14.
ETA is March 12
