Current Order Times

I placed an order for a 2019 F350 CC XL-STX with the 6.7 diesel on February 28, 2019. Any idea how long Ford is currently taking to create the VIN number? This is week #5 and I am excited to follow the build process on-line.

I placed my order on 2/26/19 and I requested the VIN from my dealer on 3/14/19; it was provided the same day. ETA to dealership is 4/23, truck was built on 3/25.

I ordered a Ultimate Lariat on March 21st . The dealership never gave me any information as how to track the truck as it’s being built. They said 8 to 10 weeks . How can you obtain a VIN#?

You'll have to ask your dealer and then you can track the build

I ordered a F350 CCSB King Ranch 6.7 on Feb 8th. Not sure when the dealer got the order in to the factory, but I got the VIN almost exactly 4 weeks later on March 9th. It was a couple of days later and the window sticker was available. Supposedly next week delivery to the dealership. Hard for me to say - here in Canada we have crap visibility on changes to delivery dates.

TLDR: VIN 4 weeks after order, delivery expected ~8 weeks after order

My F-350 Lariat was ordered sometime during the week of Monday, Feb 25 (obviously, I know when I was there, but I don't know exactly when the order was processed to Ford). Got my VIN on 3/19, but I suppose it could have been available earlier ... I simply asked for an update on 3/19 and got my VIN. The system stated that my truck would be built 4/9 - 4/15. However, the Ford tracker states that it was in production on 3/27 and awaiting shipment on 3/28. Shows a delivery date of 4/14 (KY to CO). So, things went faster than projected.

I expect it will take a week or so for the dealer to process the truck and get it ready for sale. So, I expect, at this point, to take delivery sometime near the end of April.

Ordered my F350 Lariat on February 19. Dealer got me the VIN on March 20. The system showed processing as of February 20th. Showed in production last week, but no update during the week. Currently shows in production with a date of April 1, this past Monday. ETA is 3 weeks from today, April 23.

I got my VIN one week after I ordered it. I picked my truck up 5 weeks and 1 day after the order, before the tracking app showed it shipped. We ordered a Ranger 3 1/2 weeks ago, still no VIN.

Ordered my F-350 build on 3/13. Dealers says a build week of 5/27 with no VIN or any other info yet. OMG this wait is excruciating! Especially with some of the quick turn-arounds some have had.
