Hopefully we'll see something after the weekend.

Stopped by my local dealership to see if they had any info on 12/16 blend but, alas, nothing. They did, however pull an Azure Gray Metallic Platinum around for me to see. What a great color…wow like Area 51 with metallic flake. Almost enough to make me change from AMB.

and got a tear tag! So how do i know if itll be on a chip hold from here? if it doesnt move to 'Built' in the tracker for a while? I still dont have an 'In Production' date in there yet.

Thinking i might call Ford for a status at the end of the week if i dont see any movement from here.

Nice! Hopefully mine aren't too far behind you with a blend date of 12/17

Whoo hoo! Received a tear tag today. Blend date was 12/15. Anyone else get theirs?

My modules populated this morning. Still waiting for a tear tag.

Blend date of 12/16…models populated, no tear tag yet either.

Tear tag just populated! 12/17 blend date, 12/19 in production date.

I got an 'in production' date now of 12/19, blend date was 12/16

Love seeing all these production updates this past week! FWIW my blend date was 12/13 and order page shows in production 12/14. Tear tag appeared on 12/15. Hoping to see the order page update to "Built" in the next day or two. That timing would line-up with what folks in 12/05 build week have been seeing.

Fingers crossed for no chip holds and shipments being scheduled in early 2023!

I talked with Ford customer service this morning and they gave me a date range of Jan 11th-17th for my vehicle to arrive!

UUGgh! I might have a problem here... I tried checking the Order Tracker using the url (as I've done multiple times a day for the past week or two) and got a message "Sorry, we are unable to process this order. Please enter a valid Ford Order VIN.". I called my dealer and he said another Inventory tool he has shows a status of "Stop Sale" and he doesn't know why.

I got on chat with Ford CS and was told that my current order status is still In Production and they don't show a Stop Sale status.

When I log into the Ford site now, it takes me to a different area "Vehicle Dashboard" and doesn't give me the option to go to the Order Tracker.

Update:
Crisis averted, after about 20 minutes I was able to get access to the Order Tracker again and I'm still In Production.

Our builds are only a day apart from Blend/Tear Tag, and I'm still "In Production". I'd give it another day (or two) and would just try to chill. There's no reason (to my knowledge) that your truck order would have a major problem. Chip hold? Maybe. Your VIN not registering is likely just a system glitch where your order is about to move to "Built" status.

This is 100% projection, of course, but just trying to alleviate the panic The timing I've seen in other build week forums between production/tear tag/built/shipped is looking on-track for you (and us). Keep the faith!
