Interesting mine is an F250 as well. I wonder why your order number is so high. Maybe different parts of the country but that seems odd. This is my first time dealing with ford so I don't know how they work. Your email you got said Order ID and 7191

Interesting now I'm really curious on the numbers, I was thinking it was sequential as it enters fords system. When did you place your order?

I’ve heard the order number is dealer related and can have letters. Mine is mostly letters. So not a number.

The last digits of the VIN are the production number. Would be interesting to see based on that. Mine is 01827. That also might be different with F250,F350 etc. There are about 26,500 super duty’s built per month with both plants online. With only Kentucky, we still should be seeing VIN numbers close to 10,000 by the third week in October.

I'm curious of those who got their build date; what was your order number? I'm 455 and as of today I don't have a build date.

Order number is likely dealer specific and tied to total orders placed versus for a specific model
 
Well I guess if the emails that went out today were for 5 weeks of scheduling , then is it safe to say the rest won't be scheduled till December or 2024?

Your order with Ford is a combination of the Sales Code (which identifies the dealership) and order number. Your higher order number is likely a result of your dealer being higher volume, placing more orders.

Thanks for that info! I'm assuming higher volume dealers may get orders sooner vs lower?

Sadly no, each dealer has a monthly allocation so a higher volume dealer will get more units each month compared to lower volume dealers. Dealer's manage how their allocation gets scheduled between retail orders and stock inventory. Parts constraints also factors into what can get scheduled, and for retail orders, priority code and order date are factors as well.
 
Order number 324 and no email for a lariat tremor… I didn’t expect one but was hopeful.

Depends on dealer allocations for the time your order is first up for consideration.
Dealers earn allocations at various points during the month based on previous sales and what they have left sitting on the lot and not sold.
No order is scheduled without a dealer allocation.
Scheduling is based like the NFL draft where each dealer gets one pick in turn until their allocations for that model run out. Bigger dealers that price their vehicles so they sell quickly get more allocations and will last more rounds in the picking. Those dealers will be able to keep adding scheduled orders for longer compared to smaller dealers that only have a few allocations and drop out of later rounds.

If you order from a small dealer, or a dealer that marks up their trucks so hardly any sell, they won’t have enough allocations to get your truck scheduled and it will take months/years to get built.

There are also priority codes that dealers assigned. If your dealer is giving certain customers higher priority compared to your order, and that dealer doesn’t have many allocations, your order will take forever.

Small dealers can be great as long as your order is the highest priority they have and they have at least the one allocation for your build. Since each dealer has an equal place on the first round, a small dealer with one allocation for your one tremor order will be a better place to order than a large dealer with tons of orders.

Thank you, great explanation! It'll be interesting to see where I fall.

You'll want to talk to your dealer .... find out what your priority code is and also see if you can get a sense of how many Super Duty orders they have and their total allocation for the year. Dealers like Granger are super transparent about all of these, but you'll find they are the rare exception.

I believe for 2024, dealer set priority codes range from 3 to 19 and 99. The lower the number the better. Orders are generally scheduled lowest priority code and then oldest order in that priority code (assuming no constraints) against that dealer's available allocation. Getting another copy of your order / build sheet will show your priority code. Your sales manager / GM will likely be the person you need to speak to to get it a lower number.

Interesting, I'll try that. My number was 0455 on my sales sheet it says priority code 19
 
There also seems to be something unusual going on with the 2024 Super Duty startup.
From all the reports, only non Tremor Lariats are being scheduled for most of October. (There have been reports of Limited being scheduled but that doesn’t add up since the Ford Tuesday dealer notes said Limited component availability was exhausted)

One possible explanation is that Ford wants to max profits by only doing higher trims. But why not King Ranch and Platinum since their components are not constrained ?

And why not Tremors especially Lariat Tremors?
I see absolutely no constraints on any component of the Tremor Pkg.

Maybe Ford is just trying to keep things simple and limit the 2024 startup to non Tremor Lariats only. And hopefully they’ll spend
the first two weeks of November doing Tremor’s only.
