My truck is going to be built on Oct 2nd. Yeeeeeeeeeeeee-Haaaaaaaaaaaaaa. I can't wait. Keep in mind this'll be my first Ford EVER!! I've always been a GM man.

 

Take good care of it because it is my twin!

My B-day = Oct 02 LOL!!!

 

GENTLEMEN, IT LOOKS LIKE TRIPLETS!!!!!
MINE IS ALSO BEING BUILT 10/2 OR SO IT SAYS ON THE DORA. REMEMBER, THAT'S NOT A GUARANTEE. IT ALSO STATES IT WILL BE BUILT IN CANADA? FROM WHERE YOU GUYS ARE FROM, I WOULD GUESS YOURS WILL ALSO. ONLY PROBLEM IS I DIDN'T KNOW F150 WERE BUILT THERE? ONLY VIRGINIA AND INDIANA?

 

Newfordguy congratulations with your new Ford Truck,you won't regret it.



JDF: My truck was built in Oakville,Ontario,Canada.

Wow - there for the delivery? Did they let you undo the chains?

(nice ride!)

Doh! I just noticed that it was on a platform and not a truck.

OH! I thought this was going to be something about your being hard up and not being able to find anybody to date you until now!

OK, so Canada it is. My next question is, does it make a difference where my truck is built? I mean all the parts are the same right?
Maybe they come with better heaters, eeh?

JDF,

It does make a difference to me.
The odometer is showing kilometers,not miles.
Km Per Hour on top(big font),Miles per Hour beneath(small font)

 

I got my date last week... Remember that the "schedule date" refers to the week in which it will be built. Actual build date could be any day that week.

My week is 9-25!!!

Anyone know how long it usually takes to get the truck delivered to the dealership?

Also, my understanding is that US built F-150s are made in Norfolk or Kansas City. I Know the assigned VIN for my truck (even though it hasn't been built) and it begins with a "1" which, I'm told, means US built. VINs beginning with 2 are Canadian and VINs beginning with 3 are Mexican. Anyone hear any different?

Regardless, I can't wait to get my new truck! It's a good thing I have plenty to do until then, or I'd be pining away for it too much *grin*

later...
