Dang - you're already driving your truck. Are their systems this far behind? What are the interns doing?

My updated window sticker shows the same date (6/16/2022) as yours, and my blend date was originally showing as 5/18 on the old sticker. Are we sure this date is a blend date and not something else?
As far as I understand the only date that should change is the very bottom one. This particular section should remain the same.

Exactly! I’ve got the wheels changed, windows tinted and am waiting for the cover and bed rug to be installed right now.
I got the rail car from ford after it showed it shipped. Then I got the estimated delivery email.
A week or two after that I tried to check the status through ford chat and they told me it was at Blue Island but they no longer had the railcar number. Then a few days later my dealer told me they received it. So status and tracking weren’t reliable at all except that it had shipped.

What sequence number shows now on your new window sticker? Mine updated to this:

Heya Rod, no change here, still 5/5 blend, CA5A, convoy, Ramp R, etc. No direct emails from Ford in months (other than fluff crap).

Where do you see the 5/5 blend? That pic you posted shows 6/16 in the field we are speculating is the blend date.

Edit: Or maybe you deleted the starting quote which screwed up the formatting and it's showing the photo Rod posted.

So they are your particular truck. My Iced Blue has 3 dudes in the background
I think so? They said it was my truck coming off the assembly line. My dealer said my truck is in town, but has not been made it to the dealership yet. It’s been a week now, so I’m just hopeful I can take delivery soon.

I don't think I've seen this email posted anywhere else?

Nevermind that I've had the truck since the 6th and have nearly 500 miles on it. I have to say that I'm impressed that they're doing this. I think I mentioned something about how cool it would be if they did something like this in some post a while ago, since other manufacturers have done something similar (Mini I think?).

I'm sure they're playing "catch-up" to get these emails out to everybody who's orders have been built (back to the startup I guess?) and so that's why the delay, but seriously, this is a nice piece of personalized messaging and it's very welcome to see.

Well done @Ford Motor Company

Mike
