The last six digits of your VIN is your sequence number, not sure about the "build" though.

From: the moral high ground
The 11th position of the VIN indicates the Assembly Plant.

The last six positions, (12-17) are the sequence number.

The first unit off the line is sequence number A00001.
After 99,999 units are built, the 100,000th unit has sequence number B00000

If a given plant built 300,000 trucks,
'A' would be an early build
'B' trucks would be mid-year builds
'C' would be late year builds.

This is helpful when Ford institutes a 'mid-year' model change.

If some 'B' trucks did not get the modification then you know by default that :

None of the A trucks got it.
and
All of the C trucks got it.
