Congrats on the new truck! Mine is in a railyard 1 hour from me but because of the blizzard today here in SE Va. the haulers can’t make it to the dealer.

How about some kind of webcam access to various “non proprietary” sections of the assembly line including the drive off so owners can track their build.

The dealer told me when I ordered that the “X” plan locks in your price so it can’t go up if there is a pricing change but he couldn’t lock in incentives. Your incentives are what is available at delivery for better or worse. My “X” plan pin is good for a year but the incentives attached to it expire on Tuesday. COTUS updated this morning with a delivery date of January 1st so it may all be a moot point, for me at least. Assuming you can trust COTUS.

The dealer is going to take my trade Saturday so I can get the 2017 model year value for it rather than the 2018 which it will loose $1000 or so of value even though the truck is only a day older. Plus we are going to sign all the paperwork to lock in the incentives. Right now they only have $1000 costumer cash but I have an “X” plan deal that gets me an extra $500 plus a $500 gift card thru BJ’s so I will end up about $800 below invoice. With my luck the January incentive will be better.

I looked up the rail carrier and they only take off 3pm on the 24th thru 10pm the 25th. So hopefully it will get here this week so I can use my inventive that expire on the 2nd.

COTUS is so frustrating. My truck was scheduled 12/12 with a build date of 12/20 and an estimated delivery of 1/15. Okay but not great. Then the day after it’s build the delivery date changed to 12/27.. Awesome! The dealer called yesterday just to give me an update and said that it was still on the ramp in Kentucky. Clearly not going to make it here today. And now the estimated delivery date and days to delivery have disappeared off COTUS. There killing me smalls.

Cyberdman, Can I get an update? COTUS is saying it’s here and the dealer says it’s still in Kentucky. Thanks for your help.

Welcome to BlueOvalForums. There is a lot of good info to be found here, however, you will find the Super Duty answers you are looking for at Ford-Trucks.com. That’s where most of the Super duty guys are.

It’s the rail car thing that gets you. I’m 655 miles from the plant and mine will come via convoy which is only a 12 hour drive, or two days, for a big rig. I’m just glad shipping didn’t shut down with the plant too.

Surprise, my truck was built yesterday the 20th and COTUS showed a delivery date of January 15th which I guess was right given the upcoming shutdown. And then this evening I checked COTUS, knowing nothing would have changed, when to my surprise the status had changed form awaiting shipment to in transit with an updated delivery of December 27th.

Just checking to see if it has a build date yet. Thanks for this service. 1FT7W2B63JEB48027

Olafcrosby, you might want to check with the guys on ford-trucks.com in the 2017+ Super Duty forum. There is a lot more SD activity there and more than likely someone has already asked a question like yours. Try this thread. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1506354-rear-trailer-camera-tpms-questions.html

Cotus.com. Customer Order Tracking U.S. is a generic order tracking website by Ford. You can enter your VIN or dealer code, order # and last name to search for yours. It would seem that Ford is having trouble with it. A lot of guys orders aren’t showing up until near the end if at all.

The 2018 “build and price” tool is finally working on Ford’s website and Cotus started working today for a lot of guys including mine which is two weeks out from its build date.
