Anyone Else with A Build Week 21st Jan???? - Diesel Forum

Hi!

Anyone with build week scheduled for Jan 21?? Just curious to VIN seq numbers and what you have heard from dealers...

Mine is C00347 - I understand from F*rd it is in production, with ETA of Feb 11th.... From KTP to West VA - seems a long time for a short distance.

Anyway - if you'll post your VIN sequences and arrival ETA's maybe we will all know a bit better :-))

Thx, Coolhand

Jesse, Good news...

Do you know where yours is being built?? KTP or Mex?

If KTP - what state is it shipping to?

I understand from some other threads that delivery times are / can be in the 7 to 9 day time frame. Seems like 3 weeks for delivery is long...

Thx, Coolhand.

According to my VIN it's being built at KTP. Shipping to Texas. It's been my experience that it'll only take about 2 weeks to get here. Which also means I've got to get my current truck sold.

My dealer (also my Uncle) just called that they got the invoice on my truck today and it was built 1/22/02. So maybe thats a reference point for your trucks. Yippie!!

Well you count me in too!
Build week of 1/21 DLR-ETA 02/04 VIN# CO1181
I will check with my dealer tomorrow, it should have been built today or yesterday (tuesday)
I'm a Ford worker myself,(A-Plan) and there was no production on Monday in the US. (UAW)
If all goes well it will take a total of 6 weeks from order to delivery? And yes, I have a Ky.built truck.
To tell you guy's the truth, I'm ready to jog down to Ky and get my truck!
Man were all gonna need a little luck to avoid this cackle thang!

Don't let yourself get paranoid about the cackle problem. I have a VERY early '99 and it's noisey compared to the new trucks. The only time it knocked is when I fueled with a definately cheap fuel (no choice). I added some Stanadyne Performance Formula and it quieted down. Enjoy your new truck and realize the engine is a diesel and it makes it's own signature noise!

Great News...

Munkey - Thanks for the heads up on the Build #'s !!

Looks like mine with a C00347 should have been built Tuesday - if not before!!!

It will be interesting for others to see how long delivery takes to different points on the map. Mine is a KTP build, and a shipment to West Virginia - Charlestown....

I too am ready to jog down to KTP and pick it up... The wait is hard.

Good news for me!
Stoped into the dealer today, I had a DLR-ETA of 02/04 it's been bumped up to 1/31 hehe
Sales man also said they usally come a few days earlyer than the ETA ?
So I hope to be in my truck by mid week!
Anyone else check on theirs lately?
