I've been checking every day since I got the VIN (over a month now.)
Today, for the first time the window sticker loaded.
I'm so excited, a few more days and it'll roll off the line.
Wish there was some faster way to get it the 400 miles from the factory to here other than rail. I'm probably waiting another month+, but at least there's progress.
Ordered: 11-11-11
Re-ordered: late Dec '11
Window Sticker: 1-27-12
Delivered 2-16-12

Your dealer should be able to give you an ETA! If they wont then Cory here (FordCustomerService) can!! Just PM your Vin and dealer name. Good Luck!! I almost went insane waiting for mine to arrive!!!

That’s great news, TrickTruck! It shows your order is at the factory now and, like you said, should be rolling off the line in a few days!

Thanks for the shout-out, TBS-POPS; I hope your weekend went well!
You are broadcasting your (or someone else's) VIN all over the internet. Not cool.
That link came right off Diesel Stop including the VIN. You are the first to complain. Now please explain the damage of seeing a Vin Number. It's not like a SS number for ID theft.

You mean the same VIN that you can see through the windshield and on various parts AND is "broadcast all over the internet" by the likes of Ebay and Fords dealer connection site?
Thieves can find out all kinds of information about you and your truck if they are in possession of the VIN. It's pretty much frowned upon by the forum members (I come from the HD motorcycle arena) in general to post your VIN on the net.
Ask Cory. In the few months I've been reading this forum he has not once asked someone to post their VIN in the forum, nor has he posted it. Always via PM.
Posting your (or someone else's) VIN in a public forum is not a good idea.
If you want to post yours, it's your funeral. I'm keeping mine private.

I did not realize I was posting on a Harley forum but go ahead and do your worst then, be sure to let me know what kind of information you find out about me based on the below.

Now I just have to wait for it to show up, dealer quoted 6-8 weeks and it looks pretty close to that:
Ordered: June 19th
Vin Number Received: July 23rd
Built: ~August 3rd (Missed the Factory 400hp Flash?)
Received: ???

You guys are right, it’s generally better not to post your VIN because it’s personal info that you might not want to broadcast publicly.

Could you tell me exactly what info thieves can get from a VIN? You can PM me if you'd like rather than post it.
I likely wouldn't post mine, there's no real reason to, but I'm just curious, because you can walk up to any vehicle in North America, look through the windshield, and write down the VIN number...
via hack into DMV, owners name, address, tag#, license #, ocupation, etc. From there, sky's the limit. Illegal databases all over the world as a result of hacking that criminals can buy into.
Yes, they could walk up to a windshield and do the same thing, but that's a 1:1 experience, posting it on the net means millions of people get it.
I think the biggest concern is when you have a tricked out truck someone would like to steal, they get the info on you via VIN, then you are a target. These thief rings are very net savvy, I'm not going to give them any more personal information than I have to.
It arrived yesterday 2-15-12. Sadly, I'm in graduate school and had an exam yesterday and couldn't pick it up. Got it today. OMG, it's off the chain cool.
Lovin this truck already!!! Everything is perfect so far and it's bad azz.
Big too. Seems like it's a lot taller than the 250s I drove on the lot. Are 350s taller than 250s? Looks like I can fit 37"s without a lift. Anyone know?
