My dealers order number is M001, Placed May 21st. They said its dealer assigned number, must be unique. He told me M was for Mustang, and I was 001.

Your dealer assigns the order number so he should know. Most dealers use the date the order was put in as order number. Did you order yours July 2nd?
And he doesn't know his own dealer code?
And you're buying a vehicle from him??
Yeah I thought it was a little odd he didn't have much info for me, especially since the guy I'm talking to is supposedly the guy who does all the ordering for this dealership! I ordered on 11/14, so I'm not sure where he got that order number from.

Can anyone with a convertible order with a current build week try this web site to see if you can get your window sticker. After the = sign, type in your VIN.
Didn't work for me, but I did just get my VIN so maybe it takes time to show up? I was trying to look up window stickers for fastbacks that my dealer has yesterday and the site wasn't working even for those...maybe it is down still.

It works for me if I put in a VIN with current blend date but not for my VIN - guess because I'm not scheduled until week of 15 Dec. Did you put the "=" sign in before the VIN? It does work for convertibles because my dealer has a vert with blend date of yesterday that I can pull up.

Here's one for a convertible with a blend date of 24 Nov 14. Since COTUS doesn't work for convertibles, this is the only way I know of to get our window stickers and blend dates, but we have to have a blend date to view the window sticker. Guess I have to keep trying every week.

Are window stickers usually not created until the blend date, or do they get created before the blend date occurs?

Maybe there is a sticky, but I would like to see a good guide on how the order/build/delivery process works with Ford. There are a lot of steps and it gets confusing sometimes!

Your window sticker will not show up until 5-8 days (based on others experiences) before your blend date. I expect those of us with 12/15 estimated build dates to see something @Dec 8th or so (plus or minus a day or two).

Keep an eye on yours...I ordered a few days after you and my blend date is 12/03 and my window sticker showed up today! It may be I got lucky with the constraints on my particular build....:headbonk:

That makes me very jealous. I got a build date from my dealer of 12/15. Either your dealer does more volume or my dealer put me at lower priority. :shrug:

Don't be jealous, be happy! I ordered mine on 3 Jul, got my VIN on 30 Oct, and am looking at a 15 Dec build week (moved from 24 Nov and 8 Dec).

My dealer is actually pretty small potatoes around here. I chose a smaller dealer because they were the only one's in Denver area that weren't marking up the 2015s they had in inventory, which is just me taking a stand against that practice :D I'm very surprised how fast my order is going so far!

I wonder since you have the 19's if there was a delay or constraint in that particular component that got you pushed back. I dunno....I think I got lucky on when I put my order in, as there probably aren't a lot of people ordering convertibles this time of year, but it is still weird how I'd leap-frog people who ordered before me...sorry! :doh:

I didn't think the convertible order banks were open until September? :confused:

Haha no nothing to apologize for. Your dealer probably just put you in at a higher priority. No biggie, I will only have to wait (hopefully) 2 weeks or so longer than you. The only thing that I have on my order that was under constraint was the Premier Trim which I see you have as well. Who knows what Ford's reasoning is on these build dates though? As long as I get mine by Late January/early February I will be happy. Convertible weather hits us around March down here.
