Good catch. Updated

Ours finally got a VIN and scheduled to 7/18, ordered on 11/11. I was checking the vehicle visibility site basically daily and finally saw the VIN and scheduled date. Getting excited again!

Yay, exciting! My order is also scheduled for 7/18 according to a screenshot my dealer sent me. My order was placed on 11/12/21 for a Premium AWD ER.

I only started shopping for a car in March, after the order banks closed for Premiums, so the order I placed with Ford is for a Select. However, I found a dealer who let me claim someone else's Premium order they placed in November but decided they didn't want (for a markup price I'm not proud to mention), so until the dealer sent me this build date confirmation screenshot from their "Order Fulfillment" page on dealerconnection.com I had to just trust them that the order was placed when they said. But it looks like everything should work out, and now I'll just have to decide if I want to do anything with my to-be-scheduled Select besides let the dealer make some markup profit on it. And figure out financing ahead of my Premium delivery date. And try to sit patiently for another three months.

Just got scheduled to 7/18/22 build week today. Premium AWD ER ordered 11/17/2021

If everyone that joins can provide their model and order date I can help track once we start getting window sticker and batches. We should start getting window stickers around July 14.

Oh, your help tracking would be great! What would that entail? I found the tracker tool on the forum, but it doesn't return any results for my VIN, which I assume is because the windowsticker.forddirect.com page doesn't yet work for my VIN. So you get a VIN when your built date is scheduled, and then you get a window sticker the week before the build date?

Anyone know how the incentives work?

Anyone know how the incentives work?

My understanding is that the federal tax credit is a deduction you add when you file your federal taxes next year, so your federal taxes will be $7,500 less than they otherwise would be.

I think the state credit is similar but at the state level, but only if your state offers the credit (mine doesn't). I haven't heard of the utility credit, but I'm guessing that's also at the state or county/city level. My guess is that your area might have some incentive like a rebate on installing a charger at your home. Ex.: https://evcharging.enelx.com/resources/federal-and-state-electric-vehicle-incentives

Welcome to the gang! I originally was going to go with the Iced Blue Silver but then switched to Space White. I'm sure it'll look great!

Premium AWD ER Space White Ordered 12/30/2021

Seems like we are the space white group… Anyone want to guess a delivery date?

Knock on wood, we don’t have any delays… but Ford is getting super close to 200k, so if they cross that sales threshold in June (Q2), we would need to take delivery in Aug or Sept (Q3). Hopefully it won’t be Oct 1.

My guess is Aug 28.
