When a "Window Sticker" is generated, can info like the Blend date change or is it written in stone?

[Lightning Rod]

My window sticker was generated not long after I ordered, 11-15-22. It has a blend date of 1-15-23 but it's been "In Production" for about 2 weeks. I'm wondering if it will take that long to build.

Is the window sticker written in stone or can it be updated as the build goes on?

I've never seen the blend date change once assigned, but the date of actual "IN PRODUCTION" as seen on the US & Canadian trackers won't necessarily show that exact date, on rare occasion I have seen trucks go a day or so early, some right on schedule and many more one to several days later, it's all governed by the real time flow on the line.

Note that your status on the personal order page updates to production on the day your VIN is selected to the day, and the window sticker is generated and "sent to plant"

See these examples from the 12/5 build week, most are on time, one is early one is late (by a day)

The window sticker can and will change, but I wouldn't expect it to change drastically.

In production means scheduled. You need to look at the Build Week and then the Blend Date. Nothing can truly be considered "written in stone"- at best it is what is known at the time of publication.

This sticker indicates a blend date of 1/12/23 during the build week of 1/9/23

VIN was selected for scheduling to the day on 12/21/22 orange highlight.
The window sticker render occurs on demand the moment you request it as seen with the pink highlight as 1/1/2023, this will change with each new day.
