2012 fx4

hey guys,

The time is near for my build to start! I got the vin several weeks ago, and production is scheduled for the week of May 7th. I was going to start looking for the window sticker this week, since I thought I recalled they didn't show up until a week or so before production. I was curious if this was the case, and also if anyone had seen a vin such as mine?


1FTFW1ET1CFB84187


I had thought all trucks where 1FTPW? There may have been some change similar to Raptor vins to indicate something special, IDK..

Thanks Setchan!

I had actually tried that vin decoder before, that is a very neat tool! I should have realized when it decoded the 'f' that is was legit. I had just never seen a 1FTFW vin sequence.

I can't wait to see the window sticker sometime this week (hopefully)!

I take it that it is scheduled for monday may 7? or does that still indicate just the week of may 7?

Thanks SETCHAN! Actually, right after you posted this I got an email from my dealer showing it had been produced and was awaiting shipment.

VERY cool! I was wondering if Convoy meant all truck or if it was a combination of rail/truck delivery. I figured it probably wouldn't move until next Monday after reading about some folks wait for shipping. Looks like the ETA may have moved out to May 25, which is fine since I won't pick it up till June.

Hopefully it can avoid all the bad weather that may be coming up this weekend/early next week for North Texas/Oklahoma.

Thanks again SETCHAN! This is an awesome addition to the Forum!

SETCHAN, what is the latest ETA at the dealer? Is it still the 24/25th, I figured it wasn't today. It was showing the 14th all the way till shipment, then it moved out. The 24/25th would be perfect, but since it is making good progress I figured it would be early.
