I just want my J1 truck by early June.
That's probably not an unreasonable expectation - it appears they are scheduling and building J1 trucks pretty aggressively. The 2023 FB page is blowing up with guys getting their window stickers and scheduled build weeks.
Generally a VIN is assigned when you get your production date scheduled, at this point you can no longer make changes to your order.
Have my VIN, no window sticker. That's pretty cool. I can frame it, put it in front of the head so that its easier to evacuate my colon every time I see the MSRP
Correct. At the build date point a good portion of the truck is already built. The build date is the planned date the group of trucks the truck is in starts having the chassis mated to the bodies on the assembly line. That window sticker that was posted looks like it has 77/188 in the upper right margin which means it should be the 77th truck out of 188 with that build date. The higher the first number there the higher the chances the truck gets built the following day or two after the build date. The total on that sticker seems low though. Figure the window sticker comes out a week before the build date as parts start to get put together and the in plant portion of the truck is finished a few days after.
No family members it supposedly also hit LAP too.
go ahead and add another price hike on the 24 model im sure.
That’s why I took my ‘22 platinum instead of canceling it for a ‘23. I didn’t want to wait another 10 months after already waiting a year. Plus it was a lot cheaper with price protection and 2% under invoice from granger.
It shouldn't as long as you don't change trim level. I believe that once you change trim level it becomes a new order.
All I added were roof clearance lights so I guess I should be good. Just find it odd I'm priority code 10, ordered on 10/31, Ford email confirmation the next day and still haven't gotten a build date.
There is no method to their madness. Priority codes are like the points in who's line is it anyway! Everyone is awarded points/priority codes but they don't matter!
I'd check with your dealer to find out if anything in your order is under constraint that could be causing it to not get picked-up. The priority code 10 would generally indicate that you're top of the list for your dealer, but if they code everyone they take an order from with the same priority code then it doesn't matter. It also depends on their allocation (how many orders do they get each month) versus the number of orders they have (includes retail orders, fleet orders, stock orders). If they have a bunch of orders at priority code 10 and none have constraints then it will be by order date, oldest getting selected.
