he doesn’t have your email entered in the system correctly. What priority code did he give you?

You need to have your dealer sort this out. What you should get that day or the next day is a notification that the order has been received by Ford. It will include the dealer order code for your vehicle and your priority. That part of the process certainly does not take three weeks. It seems you do have the order acceptance if you have your order priority since that's where that occurs. Now, getting a VIN and all that, you are in the Thunderdome for when that happens. The order might not have been accepted by Ford if your dealer doesn't have any ordering allocation. That's just a possibility.

Ether the email was not entered correctly, as others have said, or the dealer is sitting on your order.
This is all on your dealer, bug them until they get it done or get your deposit back and go to another dealer.
These dealers are really going to have to start getting their houses in order soon, Ford is pushing for retail special ordering as the new way.

Mine is scheduled (9/27) with a toolbox. I opted for the less expensive (when I ordered) "defender series" which is listed as matte black on my order confirmation. I see black or silver now are both $950 on the build site, I think mine was $575.

Maybe it was polished and a no go and I guess they force the FX4 sticker on the black appearance package.
I am kinda on the fence about it all.

FX4 is pretty harmless but no fun having to pay for an option you don't really want...
I am hoping the build mine as ordered. I haven't heard otherwise.... yet.
