or you can figure it out this way:
American VIN format:
Ford does not directly encode the platform name in the VIN, although much other information is included there. Instead, the company uses a series number to identify a vehicle type. Ford's VIN format is as follows:
Position Sample Description
1 1 World Manufacturer Identifier
2 F
3 M
4 Z Restraint type or GVWR class
5 U Model
6 7
7 3
8 E Engine type
9 0 Check digit
10 4 Model year
11 Z Factory ID
12 A Sequential number
13 6
14 9
15 1
16 0
17 1
