First and foremost... yay on the window sticker! I remember when mine became available. Twas a great feeling :)

I don't exactly remember the timing, but I think 10 days from build to delivery is VERY aggressive. If I recall correctly, mine sat for a week after build for quality checks/verification. Then it took another week for the train to get here, a couple days to get off the train and to the dealer, then the dealer needed it for a day or two to clean up and prep. Maybe figure 2-3 weeks from when its actually done and off the assembly line to taking delivery?

I can't say I recall for sure Talon. I believe that's when the build starts, and since it doesn't take them too long to build it, I believe that's when its complete too. If you've ordered graphics, that will take longer since it goes to a different line for processing after being built.

Maybe the best thing to do is call Ford customer service and check with them every couple of days? (OK who am I kidding... I was calling those peeps twice a day :D)
