⏰ F-150 Lightning Scheduling This Week (9/12) For Build Week 10/12

I am incredibly new to this and unsure if this is common knowledge, but I am surprised to see "(REV-C) 2023MY STARTUP SCHEDULING" for F150 Lightning. I thought they were still long ways to go before finishing their 2022MY production? A few weeks ago, I thought I saw about 6000-7000 units shipped for the 2022MY and they surely had much more 2022MY to produce than that?

Edit: I see some people's 2022MY orders (wave 3/4) are being converted to 2023MY. I wonder if it means Ford hasn't even gone through wave 3/4 of 2022MY so there's going to be a lot of 2023MY being produced before even getting to the "official" 2023MY orders.

What day of the week do “Scheduled for Production” notices typically get posted? I was fortunate to be included in MY23 Wave 3 and am still learning about what to expect from order submission/acceptance onward.

Typically the factory schedulers will review orders for prospective builds on Mon/Tues/Wed, note that 10/12 is Wednesday, after the review selected orders will see a window sticker either Wednesday or Thursday evening, this activity would be scheduling to the day for build week 10/24.

Interestingly I have seen reports from other members who have already gotten build week assignments for 10/17 & 10/24, but these appointments can change i.e. pushed further back (10/31....etc)

I’m 10/17 and hoping to stick to that!

My Lightning was originally supposed to be built this week (9/26)... but so far has slipped to 10/17. Is still showing as MY 2022

Do you have any updates on your ford.com page, build week 10/17 is for model year 2023.
Could you share your VIN in a PM with me?
