Just placed order for 2019 Super Duty - Should I be prepared for long wait?

Hello! I have been lurking on this site for some time now, doing research reading opinions and thoughts. I finally pulled the trigger on a 2019 F-250 Lariat Sport last week, and as excited as I am, I am also some what aggravated about the wait time. Can anyone give me some insight as to how long they think i will actually have to wait to receive my new truck? My dealer told me that is could be anywhere from 3-12 weeks... which is obviously a huge window.

What kind of real world wait times are people seeing?

Thanks!

I'm at week 2 of the second order process, after a mix up on the first order which was done on August 23rd.

My "new" order went in on Monday 9/17, as of today no VIN assigned. Realistically I'm expecting early November as a "best case".

oh dang, mixups don’t sound good.

do you by chance know what priority code your order has? Mine says 40? Don’t know how much that affects the build time.

thanks!

I don't know what code my order has, I just have an order number and a screen shot from dealer that shows when it was submitted, body style, etc., along with my detailed build sheet. Good luck! Waiting isn't that fun!

Ordered on 7/27. It was delivered to the hub that will eventually truck it to the dealership yesterday so anyday it should show up.

I ordered mine approximately 2 weeks ago and Mine has a scheduled build date of 10/3 (today). I am blown away. My dealer said it should be on their lot by 10/17.

Ordered on 8/24. COTUS showed a VIN on 9/13. I had delivery dates of 10/28, 10/24 and now it's 11/3. Have yet to see a build date on COTUS but the dealer says their system shows it's scheduled for 10/8. Right from the beginning I was expecting to see the truck in late November so any date prior to that is a bonus.

Ordered mine on 9/8, scheduled build date 10/6 with delivery on 10/16. I'm expecting the beginning of november. I would think for efficiency purposes they would build runs of similar trucks at the same time which would effect build scheduling and turnaround time regardless of order date. The transport is solely going to depend on rail or truck availability which is the biggest wildcard.

I'm very fortunate. My 2019 was built and delivered in a shockingly short period of time. I ordered it on 8/9/18 and took delivery on 9/18/18. Truck was built in Louisville, Kentucky and delivered by CSX rail to the Albany, NY area. No idea how or why it was built and delivered so fast.
