Ford gives employees a limited number of X-Plan PINs to give out to "friends and neighbors". Then Ford gives incentives to those employees to be sure the PINs get used by the friend to buy a new Ford. So your new "friend" that gives you a new PIN wants to be sure you're going to use it soon, so he can receive his incentive.
Some folks want to keep an X-Plan PIN in their pocket, "just in case". But Ford employees don't want to waste one of their PINs on those folks. So some will warn you up front that they will give you a PIN only if you plan to use it real soon now.
But the Ford employees are usually nice folks that understand it takes more than thirty days to order and receive a new truck. So talk to your new friend and explain what's going on with your order. He knows you can use the PIN only on delivery, so if you agree with him that you'll order immediately, he'll probably be glad to hold off on cancelling your PIN until your new truck is delivered.
