Does the tracker have a date associated with “in production”

mine did not update until this morning

Yes I noticed yesterday evening, it changed to 4/28. Lack of communication is really a bummer.

Not much of a bummer if they throw it on a truck before they tell me.

I've got to be close!

I've got to be close!

I'm a 4/22 blend and I just saw today the production date show up on the tracker (4/29). Here's to hoping for us both! Bottom of the window sticker also updated to 4/29. Clearly Ford's moving/doing something.

I say its somewhere in transit, I need to go back and dig up how I found the exact train my Truck was on. But I think once it had a date under "Built" it was pretty much shipping, since the tracker was behind.

Here is a good read if you want to find out more about tracking by rail:

Thanks F150Rod, any info on convoy tracking?

TL;DR
-Go to www.PalsApp.com
-Open the developer/inspector console in your browser (I used chrome)
-Enter this javascript: document.getElementById("custom-search-input").parentElement.removeAttribute("hidden");
-Enter your VIN

I haven't seen any early builds get a shipping invoice yet, even the ones that would obviously be shipped via truck.

To Follow Convoy:

Hacking Palsapp to allow VIN search using any browser without Log In:

Navigate to https://palsapp.com/

CTRL-SHIFT-I (or J)

Reload

GoTo Console Menu at Top of Deveoper Console

At Curser Enter:
Javascript:
document.getElementById("custom-search-input").parentElement.removeAttribute("hidden");

And then a VIN Search Bar will Open on the Palsapp Page.

BTW - I tried your Vin and No Results Yet.

When I look up my truck using the Ford Vehicle Order Tracking, it still shows In Production 04/28/2022, as of 5 minutes ago.

Yet when my contact at the dealership responded to a question I had on Friday April 29th, she checked on her end and replied: "...it does say produced and it now says ETA Pending Final Launch Readiness Sign Off Expected Spring 2022."

She also reiterated the issue with the Ford Pro Chargers, that they won't be ready to install before hand. At this point I will have the electrician wire in a 14-50 outlet, and worry about the Pro Chargers or alternatives at a later date.

Final launch sign off - yea they need to wrap that sh*t up. Assuming they're talking about the final quality checks.

The charger situation is abysmal - I'm going to try calling Sunrun on Monday and whining, will share anything new I learn. I'm fortunate enough I already have a 40 amp circuit / 32 amp charge point charger in my garage from my old bolt so I'll have something to charge on but it will take 2x as long as the ford one will.

Same here.contacted dealer - he can see 2 places one shows in production (which probably ties into what we see) and the other showed produced. He was also clear that it does not get a daily update. Their dealership update info was 2 weeks old.

I think we can all agree that Ford dropped the ball in regard to the pro Charger being available for us.

My window sticker just updated today. When my Bronco's sticker updated after the production update (after a week in the mod shop) it was on the transporter.

Fordpass App just changed too.
