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!

Build week 12/5 here.
I got built status this morning (dated yesterday) with a total of 10 days from blend to built after a 7 day chip hold for blind spot monitoring. Keep your heads up we're doing better than MY22 summer production.

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

We have same blend date. Did your status show built yet? I have spray in bed liner. Just trying to get some sort of idea when I can expect mine. I’m in NJ

My status does not show built yet. Based on the 12/5 forum it looks like it averages about 7-10 days to go from getting tear tags to built status. The system seems to be a bit slow to update.
No spray in liner for me. I'm not putting my hope in the date range that Ford customer service gave me, but it does seem to fit the time line I'm seeing from build week 12/5.

No problem. If you haven't already, I highly recommend following build group 12/5. Also, there's potential for our build week to run into some delay with the upcoming holiday. The rogue plant us taking a week off if I'm not mistaken.

Where are you picking up? We are practically neighbors and our dates are really close together. I got tear tags on 12/19, blend date 12/15. Still showing as "in production". Maybe our trucks will be shipped together! Our dealer told us he expected the truck to show up before the end of January, but no specific dates. Fingers crossed all goes smoothly. Thanks for your updates.

Watsonville Ford in Santa Cruz County. Did you call Ford customer service to get an update? They might have a tentative delivery date for you.

No, I haven't called them yet. We are in Gilroy, picking up at The Ford Store Morgan Hill. I'll give them a buzz. Is there any particular number that is better to use than another?

I just used the 1800 number off of the Ford website. I'm in Corralitos just on the other side of the hill from you. Small world.

Dealer sent me a text earlier saying my truck was built & shipped. No ETA. The Ford portal says I’m still in the Production start.

Nice! What was your blend date?

Woke up to this when checking my status this morning:

I'll call my dealer later this morning to see if they can see if it's been shipped.

Nice! What was your blend date?

Excellent Question! Unfortunately, I've not been able to figure that out. When I use Ford's tracking tool, etc. - I get "not found" error messages. Worked with the Dealer but nothing's changed. So all this makes me a big skeptical my truck has shipped. Maybe moved over to queue for spray-in bed?

Any thoughts I what I should/could do to retrieve the blend date?
