My co-worker just reminded me this morning. It's too bad OrderTrack.app is no longer fully functioning, the Ford site is just terrible. My blend date is day, no modules available yet though.

Along with stray posts in the 1/9/2023 thread to this location.

My blend date is 1/5 so I am anxiously awaiting any movement. I read somewhere that they had a pause until today so I'd guess there's back end stuff that will take a little longer to update.

Today was my blend date but didn’t see a change in status.

From the last lightning, I didn't see anything until about a week after my blend date. Waiting for my modules to pop now, then hopefully see something in FordPass.

Build week 12/19 was a couple days behind schedule, I thinks trucks intended to be built 12/22 and 12/23 are delayed until today, they will likely push the rest of you back a few days until they get the increased capacity rolling smoothly.

Modules should appear around the time you see your trucks actual IN PRODUCTION date.

@TaxmanHog - thanks for moving me over to this thread!

My blend date was 1/3, but no updates yet. I'm #211 of 294 units going to the mod shop (for me, spray in bed and power deploy steps)

Modules popped for me this morning, and my status on the Ford tracking site went to "In Production". Exciting times!

'In Production' action date is populated as 1/5/23. Also, I have modules and tear tag!

and this!

My in production date now shows as 1/7. Modules are turning on, but I don't really know what that means.

@jybell what is a tear tag?

I believe it is just the sticker they slap on your ECU once it's loaded with all the module data, but that's a SWAG from my part. This has been mentioned to be a milestone towards the end of your production in the many "tracking" posts. You'll see if this has happened at the top of the Motorcraft website where you found your modules.

 

[Fuzzbutt]

Thanks.

Now I guess we just wait until it ships? I can see modules and I also have a tear tag. I've seen some posts where people know what modules are missing or that they're on a module hold - I presume they're getting that info from a dealer or they know how to decipher what's in the module site.

 

[jybell]

Yeah, I guess it’s wait and see…
