Hello and early Happy Easter to All,

I am a new member here and just placed an order for a ST with the 401A package. Ordered about 3 weeks ago so I am now impatiently waiting until probably September. Does anyone know how long it takes to get a VIN? Also have been thinking about getting an extra set of rims for winter tires. Any suggestions for an affordable good looking aftermarket rims? Thinking about 20's for the winter tires. Thanks in advance.

-Jim

Congrats, we have similar orders. We ordered ours on 2/28 and still don't have a production schedule date...so, no VIN yet. It's a very different system from my 2021 RAM 1500 order where I had the VIN the next day.

Find a set of take off 20's with tires from a 2020+ explorer or aviator, or just buy some cheap aftermarket wheels you like and the stock 20 size is 255/55/20

I ran my factory 20's thru the winter and they do just fine. We don't get hammered here in the Cleveland area as bad as say Buffalo does so a decent A/S tire is good enough. This is the factory 20 tire ford uses on the ST's

FNTony496,
I recieved my VIN on 4-21-22 and it was built of 5-9-22 and I picked it up from the dealer on 5-19-22. I consider myself lucky after following this thread and seeing the wait time others have had. I must say this car is awesome! I got the smaller display and ordered it with out the moonroof. I have a hunch that those two items helped advance my production date but I could be wrong.

Best of luck to you!

-Jim

Nice! Swore I’d never own another black vehicle. Nothing looks better than freshly detailed black. Nothing looks worse a few hours later

looks amazing. I wanted Black also but then ran into the carbonized grey. then I had to have that one. After buying the carbonized grey I want black now. lol if I got black I would want the carbonized grey. that's how screwed up my brain works.
you need some lowering springs and tinted windows for perfection. IMO

You are absolutely correct. With all the pollen it constantly seems dirty. Washed it twice last weekend!
