working so far! I will keep you guys up to date incase you are on the same train

10 minute updates?.?.? Thats CRAZY lol. I checked my truck through this website and haven't been able to see anything. I decided to pull a VIN from my dealer's inventory and nothing, but if I pull a random VIN number from a NJ dealer knowing that area is served by them it shows delivered. I'm guessing my region isn't served by them. I'll continue to hope my vehicle flew under the radar on being updated as it was shipped out its still holding 1/3-1/9.

haha I love automation! Now I can sit back and not refresh the shipper's page every few hours haha. if the status changes it will buz my phone 20 times and do a pop notification. I only send myself text status updates as a check to make sure the authentication cookie is still active. I would've done this for the ford tracker but the captcha killed it. Plus the results I was seeing were in HTML so it would've required me to learn to parse that lol

What I really need is a few hours logged into the new VINview to see if its pulling from an easy to access API. One can dream lol

I now show a built of 12-28-22 and an Estimated Delivery of 1/20/2023 - 1/26/2023.

Now that's progress.

Maxx; I hope yours is showing built as well. If not hopefully very soon!!!

Thanks. No dice for me. I told you guys I was special.

Monday morning update: still not shipped and new Estimated Delivery 12/31/2022 - 1/6/2023

It's been 10 days since I posted an update. Still not shipped and new Estimated Delivery 1/10/2023 - 1/16/2023

I think they must be moving my truck today because the Ford Pass app said that my activation process had been denied. Before today it would give a different error message.

While my order status page still shows Built 12/20 and I've received no further automated email, I did see that the estimated delivery date on the reservations and orders page updated this AM. This previously said 12/20-26 (which matched the email I got from Ford) and has now updated to 12/28-1/3. I'm in Northern IL.

Same here.... Last update was 12/19 to "built". I called my dealer today and he told me its sitting on ramp 59 awaiting shipment. I clicked activate on my Ford Pass app as well but still waiting for them to click yes or no. All that being said I'm in NC but the truck goes on the train through Dixiana, SC per my sales guy then up through Charlotte on the convoy truck. I hope we both get some good news today

Looks like it’s not just the trucks that are delayed. I ordered the weather mats, bed liner and bed extender from ford accessories website to get the 20% off before the sale ends. I just received an email saying my entire order is back ordered. At least I saved the $200. Now another waiting game.

@ddaputnam @F150Blue @umbrop you guys on this train? Just got this from chat!

called them and got this:
“intermediate arrival on train, Oakwood MI, Dec28 11:30PM”

is it switching to a CSX train? I thought CSX did East coast?

I don’t talk to chat cuz every time I talk to them they just tell me my ETA

HUGE NEWS everyone!!!
batteries and minerals requirement officially postponed till March

Also MSRP guidance showing that D&D and dealer addons are NOT included in the $80k MSRP cap. not sure where the tonneau covers are added but that could be included in the add on items perhaps. I think some of this stuff ships with the trucks and the dealer installs?

That is great news. Now my relax mode is starting to gradually turn into nervous again. Pending how long my chip hold last (if it is really a chip hold).

not sure if it's true, but Union Pacific says my truck is off the rail car! does anyone know if XLTs come with removable floor mats?

They better, I ordered the 3 piece set today. I know my 19 lariat did. The driver side has a pin they push into.
