Checked with my dealer this morning, they said my 2018 order is scheduled for production August 8 and ETA to dealer is August 27th. They also gave me a VIN but it does not show up on any of the window sticker sites. I contacted Ford Service on FB but all they would tell me is my vehicle is "In Order Processing".

Should I be concerned that my sticker doesn't show yet, or is that normal? I seem to remember seeing somewhere it won't show up until about a week before it's built.

You are correct. About a week before.

You have a VIN, you are in about as good as shape you can be in this stage.

I got my 2017 a month ago and the sticker still does not show up on that site. It is also in Raptor Finder

Interesting...

When I run your VIN on the same site I use to get my window sticker it says access for that VIN has been restricted.

Where you have an "8" in your VIN mine shows a "1".

Mine is also Priority Code 01. I think the dealer likes me.
If you read the detailed info in the Ordering sticky on this website, it states that once your unit is assigned a VIN, the priority code no longer means a thing. Can anybody shed any light on this? My 2018 order, which has a VIN and is scheduled for production August 8th, also has a priority code of 01.

I had a VIN assigned and was Code 10. The following week I got moved to Code 01. I'm sure there a reason.

The 01 priority code pushed you to the head of the allocation line, which got you into the queue for a build date. Once you have the build date you no longer need the priority code.

Best wishes for the build.

Thanks for the clarification and the b/w.
