Blend date tomorrow, guess we will see in 3 to 4 days. Do weekends count for build date slips?

Your truck likely hasn’t been even started. The factory according to taxmanhog was 3-4 days behind so they are likely just starting the 9/11 week either today or tomorrow.

Not sure about anyone else, but in checking the Ford Vehicle Order Tracking site, mine has not changed status since 08/30/2023 (which is "in production").

Even if they are built don't expect an update on the Ford website. per my dealer my truck has been built but I still have the following on the website. No build date, no nothing and radio silence from Ford. I have waited so long and the customer facing stuff is so bad it is leaving a very sour taste in my mouth.

Good to know. I unfortunately don't have a good relationship with our dealer because they're kind of idiots, so I'm just relying on the data coming out of the Ford tools folks have described here.

We're waiting for them to release a bunch of trucks to built status, possibly this will happen once they apply the recent CSP to each unit before they move on to scheduling shipping.

Ordered my second lightning this week. (returned first lightning). Website suggests October delivery. Dealer says "no way". Must take possession this year or I cancel. What do you think current the order to delivery time frame is? Lariat ER with NO options. Thanks!

Not having seen even one truck ship since June, I have no idea how long upcoming production will take to ship, with the dig out & release of existing inventory and scheduling train cars an issues, there's no telling how long.

Of the 15 VIN's I'm monitoring, two are for 9/12, @uccbcc has modules, but @MileHighVoltage is not showing yet, just a matter of time, his will probably show later today or evening.

This is good news!

@MileHighVoltage I will have a bed liner too, so we are going to check theory that bedliner is making delivery longer.
I purposely didnt get a liner for this reason(and am regretting it) so will be interesting to test this theory.
