So when is says 10/31 for Lightning production are they speaking to 1 day of production or the start of production?
Any guess on how many Lightnings they are able to produce per day?

Shouldn't is be scheduling for 11/07 because last week was for 10/31.
Not necessarily, they may not have finished scheduling all the build slots available for that week. They also may be waiting to schedule some due to parts shortages.

Wave 3 of MY23 invites have been out for awhile now...Ford isn't getting an influx of new orders yet.

I ordered on 9/7, dealer accepted on 9/8, and no production date for me yet. *sigh*

They’re scheduling 11/7. When does the VIN get assigned and where does it show up?

I just called my dealer when my production week was assigned and they gave it to me
Did your dealer have info that your Ford.com account info didn't?

I keep checking my account to see if the status has advanced to provide a production date yet but, alas, nothing. I'm wondering if it would be worth a call to the dealership/salesman (whom I've never met and likely won't until I take delivery... a worthless throwback to a time when this manufacturer to dealer to consumer model was useful) to see if they have any info on that topic that the site doesn't. It's doubtful but I'm curious if your experience can provide some new data points to this conversation..

When I saw my production week was scheduled for 10/24 I tried to use some of the techniques I saw on here to figure out the VIN myself but I had no luck. So I texted my salesman and asked if he could check. He sent me a copy of the order information page from their system with the VIN.

So you were indeed able to get more current info from your salesman than you were able to see yourself from your Ford.com site, right? I think this is a very important piece of information for others that requires clarification if it's indeed accurate.
