It means nothing, remember cotus is not actually publicly released, so the data it shows is not supposed to be seen as is.

So does that mean I can still get my car delivered by Dec 13?

Just checked cotus, it's in production-yahoo:thumbsup::thumbsup:
Maybe this means orders are moving to be built sooner! Which works for me! :)

I had a delivery date of 1/28, and last Thursday it changed to 1/22, and as of last night, my car is gone.

I type in my order#, Dealer code, and last name, and now I get :

Error 500: org.springframework.web.util.NestedServletException: Request processing failed; nested exception is java.lang.NullPointerException

I thought COTUS was broken, but then I tried a random order number for my dealer code, and out pops orders for other cars (for a Ford escape).

I tried typing in the VIN number, and I get same info, but I tried VIn numbers of other vehicles from 2018 mustang dealer inventory page, and COTUS seems to be working fine.

Not sure what this means. Dealer checked and told me he was surprised that it was priority code 1, and I asked if he meant "1st priority" for retail (which would be actually 10) or an actual code 01, he didn't get back to me.

It's doing the same for me. Hopefully, when I look tomorrow I'll see it! If not I'll be texting my salesman.

As a computer engineer I can guarantee you that it means they're moving things around in the backend database. For some reason the frontend is still trying to display something when the data is not found and gives you that error, poorly designed system, maybe this is why cotus isn't "publicly" available.

From what I’ve been lead to believe, from a few different sources, the dealer inventory you view online that shows the info for expected delivery of all Factory to dealership vehicles will never show retail orders so as to not sell someone on a vehicle which is already spoken for. If the person ends up not buying it they will release it into the inventory and it will show up in the build in price under dealer inventory on Fords website (as well as the local dealers).

Now having said that if yours is a stock order it’s possible it shows up in that dealer inventory. If it didn’t show up with the other stock orders you’ve already seen I would question the dealer to see if it was even entered with the first batch of stock orders for the dealership itself or if the held it back to put with the retail orders even though it’s coded as stock.

Same error. Maybe Ford is entering orders. I know it's not "public" yet but come on Ford. You have people who like to check on their cars everyday!!!

Yeah, that makes sense, but still good to know I'm not the only mustang they ordered which means they will most likely not put it in the showroom as a show car and get fingerprints all over. ;)

So, looks like this happened to me as well, if it actually means moving forward to production, I'm fine with that. :D
