Dark Horse Order Tracking - Also applies to other Mustangs

[Snoopy49]

Until you get a VIN, there are only 2 ways of tracking your order. Your dealer or Ford Performance Racing.

Ford Performance Racing
1-800-367-3788 - Option 1
You will need your Sales Code and Order Code, these are on the Preview Order your signed when you ordered the car or the DORA (Dealer Order Receipt Acknowledgement), you will have to ask your dealer for a copy.

Once you receive a VIN you can also use Ford Vehicle Order Tracking Status for our Canadian Brothers and Sisters Canadian Ford Vehicle Tracking Status

This will explain the order status.

Just tried this and they asked me for a dealer code instead of an order code. I'll have to check with the salesman tomorrow.

The Dealer Code is the same as the Sales Code. It starts with F followed by 5 numbers.
Example: F01234

Before the VIN is assigned if your order is unscheduled/clean (most are), it's still a crapshoot as to how long it will take to be scheduled for production.

I ordered mine on April 21. Deposit paid. Dealer has an allocation. With the recent change of dealers being able to use priorities 3-9 in addition to the typical 10-19, my dealer assigned priority 3 to my order. It’s a loaded build - premium 700A package, orange fury paint, painted stripes, handling package. I called Ford - the order shows ‘unscheduled-clean’.

I was a little surprised I did not get scheduled last week. Maybe no mustangs scheduled at all this past Thursday? The Long McArthur YouTube (Tim) said it was retail orders only, but obviously that would include me. I am hopeful for this week. If anyone has any insight on what scheduling should look like for the next couple weeks, I would appreciate it.
