Hmm so the blend date is not the day its goes into production? 05/21/19

No, the blend date is the date it is originally scheduled to come off the line, a few days after the build starts.

Cool i saw a date of 06/03/2019 .@ the dealership that might be the ship date out to California he said the transport out here to us takes awhile , shipped out on a train then it sits in a yard in benicia Calif then goes on a truck hauler crossing my fingers all goes well its killing me not having a Car to drive , I sold my other Stang in 1 day 3 weeks ago !

What priority was everyone's build ordered under?

I have a priority 10, which seems to be the highest for special orders unless you're a Ford Exec, etc.

Mine was a 10

10 is the highest that the dealer can set on his own. He can call in a favor from the regional rep or corporate to get a higher priority.

Yeah that's what I was vaguely alluding to. You have to be someone special to get a priority higher than 10.

Hoping that a Ten gets me closer to 2 months than 3 though. The wait is absolutely brutal and I've just started the process. I don't know how you all do it.


Sidenote Zooks, love the history of cars. I have a tendency not to be able to get rid of any.
My daughter has a 1964 Fairlane 500, I have a 1966 Mustang coupe, and a 1976 F250 Highboy among a few other newer ones.

How much of a difference does is make once the order has been placed? I was under the impression the priority mostly affects where you get placed in the build queue but I could be wrong.

I got an 80 but my build time is still 2 months from order date and edd is 2.5 months.

 

[20mustang16]

Buzz .im not even sure the priority number means anything now , today I called ford direct about my build got my window sticker and they told me the blend date is just a guess it could be sooner then that date or later not even sure i have to get ahold of the dealer to get a better idea what's really going on with it the rep said.

I factory ordered a Mustang from a dealer in Ontario in end of April. The estimated delivery time provided by the dealer is 8-10 Weeks. When is the VIN generated so that I can track the car in the Ford Tracking Website. When can I ask for the VIN?

Took a month and a half after I ordered for the dealer to get the VIN. I messaged my salesman at least once a week until he got the VIN. After that I mostly checked only on the tracking site and with the Ford Performance chat people.

I was able to get my VIN a week after my dealer placed the order. Called Ford Performance with the Order Number and Sales Code (dealer ID#) and they were able to give me the VIN.

Edit: I did have to contact my dealer for an updated Order number. The one listed on my order preview sheet just a placeholder.

Do you have the phone number?? Are only the PP1/2, GT350/500 cars tracked through Ford Performance?

I had called the regular Ford hotline and they didn't have any info at all.
