2021 Priority Codes

Hello. New to this forum so excuse any faux pas with posting. Ordered a Lariat Ecoboost 3 weeks ago. Today dealer told me they have an allotment of 10 trucks to be built and mine was just given a top priority number. Just curious as exactly what that means. -Thanks

Unless the chip shortage has been fixed, you can take what your dealer told you with a grain of salt.

Average wait time on an ordered vehicle when there isn’t a chip shortage is 4-8 weeks.

Just did a quick search and found a good rundown of the order priority system here: https://blueovalforums.com/forums/in...uling-process/

In a nutshell, it looks like customer orders have a higher priority than trucks ordered for dealer inventory. But as Gabar said, production delays having to do with the chip shortage mean that you might be waiting longer than usual. Welcome to the forum, and I hope you post photos of the new truck when it arrives!

yes I’m prepared to wait. It’s my first F150 but from what I’ve read it’s well worth the wait. Plus I think any company that allows you to completely customize without paying an extra fee is worth waiting for .
