if no vin, seems the dealer doesn't have allocation. It should be no problem ordering a f350 platinum. Do you know what your Priority # is? If dealer had allocation, you should have had a VIN at the beginning of October.

I'm in the same boat. Dealer is one of the higher rated and biggest sellers in Texas if not the US and Ford is even giving them the run around on special order production. They are slated to get 15+ trucks next week of dealer allocation but their special order trucks are still floating in the ether somewhere...

I think the Navigator and Expedition launches(both are new going down the same line as the SD) is slowing the ramp up of the 2018 SD.
Also, are your trucks DRW? I also think those have had a delayed production.
I ordered a 450 at the end of September. Just received the VIN last week with a production date the week of 1/8.

Priority code is the order Ford builds them from each dealer. 10 is the best, then 11, then 12 etc. So any trucks that are put in better then a 19 (10-18) will be built first.

That is your problem with your truck.. they didn't put it as a high priority. Request they change it to a 10 so it will get built.

Me too! Ordered 9/15. Chat finds the order but status is "clean and unscheduled". Guess I'll be driving the 2012 F150 through the winter.

I did order a DRW F350. I came into it thinking production would happen early december and I'd have a truck by January...so I went and sold my old truck at the end of November. Can't be without a truck that long, may see if there's a way to bump up my production priority(doubtful) or whether or not I can cancel the order and have them find me a '17


*EDIT
Actually I just reviewed my order summary my dealer sent me, it is in fact a priority code 10...

interesting lite reading! What is a lease renewal? I'll be getting out of a '16 Exploder lease and buying the SD. Or will a "re-lease" give me some priority ?
Thank you!!
