Interesting I ordered in September and people who ordered in November have same build week. I wonder in they are building by trim level.

Just got an update from my dealer. VIN 3821 ordered 9/17/2018 build scheduled for 1/15/2019 and a EYA of 1/21/2018. Please note I am about 70 miles from the plant.
Wow 6 days between build and delivery!

I did go to the dealership last Thursday. What I was told is that there was some sort of an issue in the ordering system at the time of my order that failed to mark it as a "retail" order. I spoke with the Sales Manager and he called their Ford rep. In an email to me today, the dealership says the order is "approved" and he will send me the ROVP approval email within 24 hours. So, I'm expecting the VIN and build date on this week's scheduling cycle on Thursday. Hopefully Ford gets my order slotted in similar to others than ordered back in August. We'll see......

And, last week they said they read a notice about the Rangers being delayed because of the MPG ratings and having to be tested again.

Here's this week's update: I never received the "approval" email, but did receive a screenshot of the order from the system showing "approved" status. I did NOT get a VIN or build date. I sent several emails today, and ended up at the dealership speaking with the Sales Manager. He called the Ford representative (again) and explained that I was not very satisfied. I did get a verbal confirmation that my Ranger will be delivered by 2/15/2019.

Based on this week's scheduling cycle for build dates of 2/11, I would probably get a build date of mid-February and a delivery date of mid-March if I were to cancel and go to another dealer. So, I'm just going to ride it out with this dealer.

Probably scheduling based on parts availability schedule. If we had each order's information visible on the main spreadsheet on page 1 of this thread, I'm sure we'd see some correlation. That would be asking way too much to try to collect and keep updated.

Yea exactly, It would be neat to try and figure out the correlation but way to much work to gather and update. It's super cool that @rangerdanger is collection as much as he is. Thank you

I got my VIN today, #11379. Order 10/12 but it hasn't been assigned a build or delivery date. Would there be any reason why? I paid a deposit and scanned my DL for my dealer.
