The V.O.C. shows that an order for the vehicle has been entered in the system, nothing more. A priced DORA is a commitment from Ford to build the vehicle, exactly how it's going to be built (which could be different from what's shown on the V.O.C.), and at the exact price. A dealer should always check the DORA against the VOC to make sure they're the same. It can take some time to get a DORA if the vehicle is hard to get, but usually we have them within a week. I rarely give a copy of a DORA to a customer, because 99% of the time it matches the VOC, and I don't see the need to add just one more piece of redundant paperwork. But if a customer wants a copy of it, not a problem. If you're stuck working with a dealer that's "not the best," or if your salesperson is a green pea, then a copy of the DORA is definitely a good idea.

It's something I don't have (and am worried).

Gotcha! So if my summary shows a line item of “Priced DORA $0” is that fine? Basically how I understood it is that the summary I have here is essentially the DORA as well, or rather should be the same?

Since you ordered the 1st edition hybrid, you have time to acquire. Definitely get something with a signature so you don't have surprises later on.
