Shizzu, You are I Seem to be running in the same schedule, My sticker just updated today 7/8/2017..

From what I've been told, and activity at all in scheduling, or processing with change the date on the bottom of the sticker. Thad date is sort of a "last change state" date. so if could mean just about any thing.... I still see a build date of 7/17 for mine.

It will keep changing even after you've taken delivery. It really doesn't mean anything...

There are 2 different dates. 1 shows the date every time you generate the sticker (this is what you see chsnging), the 2nd is built in to a lengthy code thst has the build date in it.

The one at the very bottom that changes doesn't change every time you pull up (generate) the sticker. It changes every week to 10 days. If you pull it up every day it will stay the same for a while.

Yep, stickers mean nothing at all. If they have an ETA date in their system from Ford thats likely pretty accurate... so by "the dealer is no help" you mean to say "the dealer isn't telling me what I want to hear". It sucks waiting, I've been there!

mine always did on my order. It was always "todays" date. Wonder if Ford changed it then.

Could be. I refreshed mine every morning but it only changed about every 10 days or so. It was always a date like the 7th/17th/27th etc. and continued to change for months after I took delivery. I haven't checked in a long time now so I don't know if and when that stopped....

So is the build date the date on the number listed below 'special order' on the bottom of the sticker? it's an f350 so no cotus data.

The upper date is usually about a week before the build and won't change.
