So this was a bit of a roller coaster.

I’m 83/426. 8/31 blend date.

They told me earlier this week that my ETA to the dealer was 9/12-9/18, which seemed very optimistic.

Just checked again. Same ETA and was told that it has been “received by a carrier at a ramp location”.

So that seems like glorious news. Then I had to open my fat mouth and ask about a chip hold. And, of course, there is a chip hold.

I have no idea how it can be with a carrier if it has a chip hold. The chat representative didn’t know either. I guess we’ll see what happens.

They could be transporting it down to Flat Rock to wait on whatever it's waiting on. They could be having Flat Rock employees at the Mustang plant finishing them up.

Well now I'm fully expecting mine to be on chip hold. Crap!

I was hoping they got a big batch of chips in as ours was running off the line.

Hey all

03/10 -- > placed order 2022 Lariat ER Rapid Red
09/01 --> my blend date
09/06 --> shows in production on ford website
09/08 --> I noticed activate button on my ford pass pass. noticed today it has a picture of my truck

how do you guys figure out it's on chip hold? I have a tear tag and some numbers beside it as well.

I am predicting 1st week of October for delivery. My 150 Tremor got here pretty shortly after my activate button showed up for it. It was on chip hold for 4 Months back in January.

If it's still "In Production" with a FordPass activation showing, 99.9% chance it's on a chip hold.
