I ordered my truck on 09/13 09
My truck was on Bobby Williams ( Sunrise) lot two days ago..10/15/09
From what has been posted as you most likely have seen, it would be incouraging to get that order in and a VIN assigned as the days are closing fast on the 2010. I have been told that it is a crazy short window as the 11's are soon to begin production....like Feb 2011

Most dealers will tell you 6 to 8 weeks. If you order on Wednesday and the dealer processes the order into the system immediately, and if there are no problems with your order,then you can expect 5 to 6 weeks. It's extremely rare for a dealer, even Bobby Williams, to order and receiver the new vehicle in a month or so.
But your chances of fast delivery are much better if you use a smart and experienced dealerperson such as Bobby Williams. If you don't already have a dealerperson that gives you a great price as well as great customer service, then I suggest you order your new truck from Bobby. He can have Ford deliver the new truck to a dealer near you for a "courtesy delivery" to you, so don't worry about where his brick and mortor store is located.

i just want to say thanks to the both of you for the info... it help a lot. i ordered one from a dealer here in michigan and they have been telling me 5 weeks, and i just want to make sure that they were telling me the truth. its been ordered now for 2 weeks and all the dealer tells me is that ford has a "order confirmation" in the system. i own a snow plowing service and i just need the truck before it snows around here... thanks again for you help..
Mine took 6 weeks from when I ordered it. It was shipped via rail to Salt Lake City and it took another 5 days for a truck to take it to Morgan, Utah, about 40 miles away. I wasn't a happy person waiting for the truck to bring it to my dealer, but once it arrived, I was very pleased and still am.

The average order to delivery is about 7-8 weeks, but the last few orders I have placed I have been able to get them within 5 weeks. The time frame will vary by dealer, drastically! A dealer MUST have the allocation available. If you have placed the order 2 weeks ago the dealer should at least have the VIN by now.
i just got a call from my dealer and he told me that i have a estimate delivery date of 11-9, but the truck isnt in "pull part" mode yet.. how true are these date given from ford... thanks again..
The estimates are usually pretty good as long as you don't run into an unexpected event - such as a flood or a train wreck or a strike by a labor union - or your new truck falling off a car hauler truck.
But realize those date estimates are for the "week of" a Monday. So your November 9th date means during the week of 9 thru 15 November. The delivery hauler usually shows up within that week, but is sometimes early.
This past Monday I requested pricing from local dealership to build a 2010 F450 with the options I wanted. Received email from sales today indicating that he'd be glad to email as attachment. I wrote back and said I'd stop by to take a look at quote. When I arrived at dealer and asked to review quote, I was handed quote and then was informed Ford is no longer accepting orders for F450s due to end of 2010 production. Asked if I wanted to order a 2011. Not at this time. So I guess that answers the "when" is 2010 F450 production ending.
