Same here, except I'm selling my Model 3. It's hard to figure out the timing so that I won't have a gap with no vehicle.

From the Ford Motor Company. My dealer was a bit sketchy trying to charge me an extra $1000 on top of what I already paid but I walked out and called Ford. I was not talking with them to much until now. Things seem to be a bit better and everything seems to be in order. I will see.

Window stickers should be dropping a week from today! I hope the Ford Gods look over all 5/23 production week holders and all delays are cast aside by our benevolent production schedulers!

Very odd, dealer says "last week of may" for build date, but my window sticker is up with a Blend Date of 5/22/2022... Anyone else here have a Window sticker yet, or am I in the wrong thread?
If you have a blend day of 5/22, then you belong in the 5/16 build week!
Expecting you will not see it until late Thursday evening, but maybe a second week of surprises if it shows up Wednesday evening!!!

Where do you guys get this "blend date" info as in Taxman's post? Does it project out, or is it just for vehicles in production?

Blend date is on the window sticker. This is the date that Ford plans on blending the various parts that make up your vehicle into a car. Window stickers are generally available 10 days before your scheduled production week.
In the example below, this Lightning has a blend date of April 26. The number 8670 after the blend date is the sequencing number it will be built. A Lightning with an 8669 number would be just ahead of this one on the production line. Note: this sequence number does not start at zero. It may start at something like 8000 and then get refreshed every couple of weeks or something like that.

Many thanks for this info! I can't wait until I get my own window sticker (hopefully by mid-summer at least)!Blend date is on the window sticker.

Is there a significance for those highlighted? Also I'll have to see if I added the update, but my dealer told me a month ago I had build date of 5/27. So when the sticker drops tomorrow my blend date should match that I would hope/expect.Looking forward to the 5/23 build week reporting in their blend day updates.
