They are currently in production but only dealer stock orders right now. One dealer told me theirs is expected at the end of october. I suppose retail or special orders will begin mid to end november. I hope this isnt the case because i woulf like mine end of november(i ordered mine as a bday gift to me)

One of my local dealers said they'll have Expys on the lot the first week of November.

So has the “Ok to buy” been issued at the plant yet? Anyone have any news on customer order production?

I've been trying to monitor things based on the Ford website. Through trial and error I see a lot of vehicles In Production but none have exited production. Again, this is based on a random sampling, there could be some...would love to see examples others find!

Process:
I went to the Ford website and in the Expy section clicked on "Search Inventory." After extending the radius to 100 miles and filtering for 2018 there are only 3 Expy's in my area. So I randomly changed the zip code to Houston (77001) and now I had 22 Expys to choose from. They are all listed as "Dealer Ordered."

I then picked a random sampling of VINs from that page and searched them on the COTUS website. Each and every one I checked was listed as "In Production" and none were "Awaiting Shipment" or later. This suggests to me that they are still in the early stages production and since non are out of production perhaps OTB hasn't been issued yet.

All reckless speculation!

I have had zero luck with that cotus tracing site, it always says the same thing ‘no record of that vehicle, check with your dealer’. This has been with my vehicle and even vin#’s I’ve seen being tracked by another forum.

That's one hell of a birthday gift. What are you planning for next year. It has to be disappointing. LOL

Odd. Here’s the first VIN that shows up using my aforementioned Houston zip code. You can see the “In Production” designation.
