D'oh! I forgot about that sticker...haven't even looked at mine yet.I just compared my physical window sticker to the one retrieved while it was being built, and the physical one (the one that came on the truck) did not have anything outside of the green border that appears on the PDFs that I downloaded, which means the blend date does not appear on the physical window sticker. It does, however appear on the sticker in the drivers door jamb:

Nope....ignore the first 3 and last 4 numbers for the build date. Yours is 3/29/19 and his is 3/16/19.So if I got this wright, we were born on the same day?
Yep, ours were born close together, but not the same day.
It does not always mean "an individual that ordered & walked away?". Some dealers will also do fake orders to add desirable packaged vehicles to their inventory as well. Not something to worry about anyway as long as it's the truck you want.I did not order my truck. It was located at an out of town dealer that my dealer picked up for me.
Am I correct in assuming that this truck was an individual that ordered & walked away? And the build date was 3/22/19?
Just trying to figure it all out.
Thanks.
Thanks. Got it now. Don't know how all those #'s work or what they mean.
I thought the ROVP program was intended to prevent dealers from doing that?
I'm fairly certain dealers here in HI do this. Either that, or they advertise their special orders to the public, only to tell them no when people inquire and then try to sell them another vehicle.
Just checked my physical window sticker for my 'special order', and it's not on mine either.
It only appears to be on the electronically generated window sticker, not the physical ones. If you have your truck, you can find the blend date on the door jamb sticker at the bottom.
ROVP was for pre orders (not currently done). However there is no difference with a dealer special ordering with a fake customer and saying "they" didn't want it vs a real customer and having the customer walk away from it after the special order is built. In the end does it really matter? No.
True. I thought they were still doing ROVP, but maybe I'm mistaken.
You are wright. No it does not matter. If someone did walk or if dealer did special order. It's mine now. Almost exactly the way I would have ordered it. Just one extra item. It's still a win win & I did not have to wait 2 months.
That truck has been delivered to the dealer as of today. Going in tomorrow, if I get it, I'll check the sticker on the door to confirm it was built on 8/16.
