I'm still showing built 9/27, and Ford Chat shows nothing. @TaxmanHog would you say i'm still in the normal range of waiting on a train? I live 2 hours north of Atlanta.

Normal, there are 5 other trucks in built status on this build week that I've been watching, at some point s south bound train will be loading.

And my delivery window is 10/1 to 10/7, so realllly fast rail service.

Give it 48-72 hours that date range should correct itself.

While that southbound train winds through western North Carolina, have it drop my Azure Gray XLT off. I’ve been waiting with BUILT since 9/29. I’m loving my color choice after seeing @Lucky26 photos.

Not as fast as mine - I'm still quoted as delivery window 9/19-9/25!
...Maybe they meant next year?
Edit: No it actually says the years, 9/19/2023-9/25/2023. Time machine confirmed.

Got an update - after 2 weeks I went from "built" to... "order confirmed".

Are you searching these by hand? I could probably whip up a tool in a few hours that you feed it a spreadsheet, and it spits out "codes" for status and date. Assuming Ford lets me poke the API.

Awesome color! I ended up going with Avalanche but this has me wondering if I made a mistake. Congrats!

I ordered Antimatter Blue Metallic XLT and ended up getting an Avalanche Lariat. Avalanche is not a color I would honestly even have considered, seeing it inside the vehicle builder on the Ford website. Seeing it in person, it is AWESOME. I think you'll be okay.

Totally agree. I went to the dealership hoping they would have a Carbonized Gray to test drive. When I got there, there was an Avalanche Lariat which looked way better than I thought it would. I almost bought it on the spot, but decided to put in an order for the Carbonized Gray in the end.

Looks like that saved me $7,500 in the end!

Run your VIN through this search engine Ford Recalls | Ford Owner Support

I'm confident you will see NO recalls and only one CSP.
They need 90 minutes tech time to apply the software update, once done it's unlikely to need any hardware changes to battery modules.

good news!
I guess dealer is watching this thread
He messaged me this morning for scheduling delivery.

I am picking up my vehicle today.
Will update once I take delivery.

I think that means you are getting ready to be shipped. Congrats on some 'action'
