You may have the shortest wait on this database between order date and estimated build date/VIN assignment. Can you share the circumstances? and let us know if your build date slips out. (I ordered the same week and am expecting to wait another 8-10 weeks before I even get a VIN/build date.)Added my order information

Day 56 of predicted 196-day wait.
It's astonishing to see a Dec 2022 order get a VIN around the same time as several people with converted 2021 orders and October orders. Trying to be rational about Ford's allocation system is fruitless. Perhaps the dealer has some pull. "My dealer" says they have no role in setting priority at all, assigned me 19 and there it stays. Anyway, congratulations.Will do. I don't have any special circumstances. Just placed an order online with the dealer I planned to work with. Guess I just got lucky (so far, lol).
Edit: I would add that my order is for a basic GT (no extra options). Maybe that played a role.
Your dealer is lying to you. They can go as high as 10, then Ford is the only one that can go lower than that.It's astonishing to see a Dec 2022 order get a VIN around the same time as several people with converted 2021 orders and October orders.
