Hi guys
I ordered a iconic silver ST on 7/20/21 though our local dealer via z-plan. It’s been over a month and my salesman claims it’s on order but is unable to give me the exact lease cost (as he claims the order may be accepted as a MY21 or MY22) and additionally cannot give me an order number or VIN, so I’m unable to track its progress/anticipated delivery date.

I get it that this is a weird year and new territory for the business. With that said, is this expected? 5 weeks after order should he be able to provide more info or is it that he just isn’t being transparent about what’s going on?

Thanks in advance

Not an option for us. Wife’s lease is up in December and need something bigger to accommodate the growing family.

Good to know. I’ll give it a few more weeks until I turn the screws a bit more. Thanks -

Exactly the info I was hoping for. We should be about a month behind you - which would work perfect with our lease turn in planned for mid December.

Will yours be an MY21?

Yes mine will be a '21. I believe someone on here had a production date a week after mine and theirs is a '22, I assume yours would be a '22 as well.

6/25 was the last day for a MY21 Production vehicle, so you literally grabbed it on the last day.

OP, you'll have a MY22 vehicle.

Really? I have an order number but no VIN yet. When did you receive your order number/VIN for tracking?

Mine started like that once I got my VIN, stating to check the window sticker below but there was no window sticker. A few days later the verbiage changed and it doesn't mention the window sticker anymore. Still no production date but I'm hoping that changes any day now.

Thank you for the info from this thread! I ordered an 2022 Explorer ST on 8/21 and was wondering when I would get a VIN or order number. I'm currently coming up on the 6 week window so hopefully I'll have one soon.
