HOORAY!!! HOORAY!!! Ok To Buy has been achieved!!!

From Blue Oval Forums:
"Posted 21 minutes ago
The "OK to Buy" status has been achieved for the 2019 F-150's. Retail orders will start scheduling on Thursday, 11/15/2018."

I wonder if the "ok to buy" had anything to do with the Kansas City plant needing to get a full week of production in? I just talked to a friend that works there and asked if they had heard anything about quality holds or anything that would hold up the ok to buy (before I saw this post about ok to buy achieved) and they said they just started producing the 19s on 11/4. I know KC doesnt make Raptors but F150s are F150s in the scheme of things. They are still going to ask around and see if they can find out anything.

We're getting closer! (hopefully)

OK to buy finally achieved. Now, you'll hopefully get some accurate info.

My truck was built 10/24 and I am still waiting to be shipped. It seems some guys were built later and already being shipped? I don't get it.

That's correct; When they go into the holding lot, the last in are the first out. You have a lot of trucks behind you that will ship before yours does.

This is total BULL$HIT!!! Placed the order 9/8. First had delivery of 11/15 then 11/26 then 12/16 NOW 1/6/19 WTH??? Dealer emailed ford to see what’s going on.

PB crew with all options except graphics and sunroof.

So, on the order tracking site, I type a VIN in and I get an error message. Saying the VIN is not valid.

Any tips on this? Seems pretty straight forward but I saw some others were having issues as well.

Shit FIRE! I hope this is not true as I have a spray-in-bedliner so I know my truck was removed from the holding lot to be worked on.

I believe that issue occurred to orders that were pushed back. What options did you order with your truck? CF or BL?

Ah, Ok...that makes sense. This is actually not my order but a Dealer order that I was tracking since it was supposed to be here soon and mine not until Feb. So I was deciding weather or not to go ahead and get this one.

I chatted with FP and they told me last week a 11/19 delivery but I'm guessing thats pushed back.

The order is black, BL's, liner, graphics, etc. Literally every option that I know of with a sticker of $76k

For some reason it doesn’t work for me but mine has already shipped out and is in transit
