There seems to be a chip hold slowing Lariat/Platinums making it to built status. There are still a couple of us from 10/24 build week that are approaching 4 weeks "in production", all with Lariats...
Confirmation from the dealer today that mine is on chip hold. Ford told him that they are estimating 12/3-12/9 as completed date for assembly.

Lariat ER, drop in bedliner.

My delivery window just moved up a week 11-22 to 11-28. Hoping for early next week after the holiday. Getting outside financing lined up over the weekend I expect would be a pain.

I would get it beforehand! I got my credit union to rate match a better offer, and I’m locked in until January!

My truck is still showing "In production", but just showed up at my dealership! Going to be able to get it soon!
Wait, what? Have you been asking Ford for status updates and it just showed up? I'm super curious how this happened!

mine is in Chicago, IL according the ford customer service
Can you share your ship date and railcar # if you have it? There are a couple of Cali folks in this build week, and we're trying to figure out if we shipped out together (and then can aggregate our intel). All I have is a railcar # canadian national railways TTGX853634

Being really close to the plant helps a lot, all metro Dearborn deliveries are shipped & received within hours of action, data processing at FOMOCO is toooooo slow

I just realized that I totally mispoke, lol. I meant that I moved from built to delivered. It has been completed since the 11th and never showed shipped or delivered.

Yes, I have been watching the status multiple times a day and have recently reached out to the dealership and Ford customer service a few times. I don't know why the system never updated, but no one had more information available than the default "waiting for carrier pickup" that I already had from the FOMOCO webpage
