Mine did show in COTUS for the first week then disappeared. What's upsetting is that people who ordered after me are already getting there info. For instance drbrian722 ordered 2weeks after me has a VIN and build week. Its probably because my dealer gave me a priority of 80. I know I am being impatient but it is just frustrating.

My official order date was 1/23 and I still haven't heard anything. I heard that convertibles don't show up on cotus. Is there another way I can find out?
As mikef523 and drbrian722 noted, COTUS now works for convertibles.

I ordered mine the morning of Feb 13 and by that afternoon it showed up in COTUS (www.COTUS.ford.com).

Have you contacted Rachel? She may be able to help to get your order moving.

Mine was put in on priority 10, I suspect that if you contact your dealer they can change that for you. It certainly can't hurt.
Mine was in COTUS next day and then vanished, then came back, then vanished, it was quite annoying. Rachel confirmed the order was in, but my dealer used the order code numerous times so COTUS would get multiple hits and then default to "not found" when in fact it just found too many to display.

But yeah, that priority 80 would prompt a conversation for me that would end in "a better priority or I'm gonna pull the order".

I ordered mine on 2/28. I was giving priority code of 11. I'm sure my car won't show up on the site yet. By the way what does priority code 11 means?

Priority is what determines how quick your order gets scheduled. 10 seems to be the norm so 11 should be ok as far as getting scheduled goes. VIN's get assigned every Thursday. You should get a vin in a week or two as long as there is no issues with production. I was a 10 and it took me 4 weeks but there was two weeks where they didn't assign any vin's. Good luck!:ford:

your quote says you got your vin before you even put in your order :D
when you arrived at the dealership did they greet you with "we've been expecting you" lol

I replied this morning, DADS05. I try very hard to get to messages the same day, but am generally at about one business day back right now. Our standard is within two business days; I prefer answering much sooner than that. :thumbsup:

Thanks, 85TTop and WatchSquid; I appreciate the recommendations! :D

Send me a PM with your dealer code and order number, mike62; I'll see if your Mustang has been accepted into my tracker. The priority code is one of the first factors in determining scheduling action. :)
