On another note, saw this video on YouTube today of a black Pro. I changed my order from carbon to black because of the Pro bumpers but haven’t seen one yet. And I absolutely love the way this thing looks. I like it better without the light bar than with on
I like it without the light bar as well. The things I'll miss are the adaptive cruise and power seats.

I checked my sticker and as noted by others there is a new revision number for the sticker. I notice a number of changes, perhaps (in my mind) the most important is that to the right of the blend date information the number of items notated in the CERT/TRD/RAMP/BUMP/CAMP etc has now gone to only showing RAMP. I'm taking that as a good sign that this is some type of checklist (to-do) and now my Truck is simply on the Ramp for loading up. other changes are to the left of the Blend information such as " 9-NORMAL,NB,007866,NF161" I notice the 7866 is the rev number of the sticker & aligns to my old one too. So the only wording I don't know its meaning is the '9-NORMAL'. perhaps that's a Quality check notation of some kind as previously it was 7-MEMO (9).

Mine has no blend date information anymore.

Here is another that changed like mine going to Michigan. I am beginning to think some of us will be skipping rail and just getting on trucks as was originally intended.

Do you have any visibility into other special order cars to see if they change too?

I still have my United Road order, so they haven’t fully cancelled the rail yet. Ramp could be empty because we’re off of ramp 51.

I mean if we play the guessing game, what could they stand for?

LABL: Label? As in, car has tear tag?
PRCS:
- Prepped, Ready Convoy Shipping?
- Prepped, Rail, Convoy Shipping?
B10:
Vitamins?

I honestly have no clue what is going on. I just emailed a friend in Dearborn to find out about decoding these changes.
Optimistic me says I am getting my truck this week off a carrier and not sitting on a rail yard for three weeks.
Pessimistic me says they started over building my truck and I won't see it until next year.

I just pulled a couple from the tracker, they show th same as yours and min (6B/A/J)
- TX, delivered.
- GA, delivered.
- NY, delivered.

So I don't think it has an effect on convoy/rail as TX and GA would have most certainly ben rail, especially since they've already been delivered.

I checked a couple of michigan deliveries and their window sticker looks exactly like mine. No transportation codes or blend date and mail at the top. The deliveries you looked at were definitely by rail. Something may be changing to due to the rail issues.

When I checked this morning, my estimated delivery times had disappeared from the order page in my Ford Account. I am still in built status.
I have seen other builds roll back in the past but then it corrects a few days later
Could you share your VIN, here or in a DM?

I’m hoping the reason my Lariat is sitting in Area 51 is they’re installing software updates to fix software issue pointed out on this site and others (tailgate won’t open, amongst others) or software/hardware issues (the Frunk not opening after water intrusion). I’d rather all these physical and “over the air” software fixes be remedied PRIOR to them handing it over to me to keep me from getting pissed off and having to return to my dealership for them to spend a week or two getting these “new vehicle” bugs worked out.

We’ll, that’s my hope anyway 😉🤞
