I will answer my own question. The site now says in Production!!!
I never got any notice (email, etc.) from Ford or anyone. Which you think would be somethign that they would do....sort of ping you when your vehicle moves between steps. I only checked the site after someone above commented that their's moved steps. Now I try and go to the Ford Vehicle Order Tracking site once a day.

It was back on 11/18 when I went to the Ford Tracking site and noticed that my truck was now "In Production". But I didn't notice any date listed under that milestone. Today when checking the site, I now see a date of 11/27/2022 listed under the "In Production". I think I would have noticed this before, and I doubt that date was there back on 11/18.

Anyone else notice or make note of a date under this label? My original date for being scheduled for production was the week of 11/21.

UPDATE:

08182022: Ordered Truck
08182022: Received "Order Confirmed" email from Ford
10022022: Received email from Ford, basically saying, it's been a while, but we will give updates at least every 45 days.
10052022: Received email from dealer that said Heated Steering Wheel & Heated Mirrors are Removed
10102022: Received emial from dealer that said Heated Mirrors are back
10132022: Received "Scheduled For Production" email from Ford. Week of 11/21/2022
11182022: Noticed @ Ford Tracker, now shows "In Production", and Window Sticker is present

Today's Update:

10022022: Received email from Ford, basically saying, it's been a while, but we will give updates at least every 45 days.

11182022: Noticed @ Ford Tracker, now shows "In Production", and Window Sticker is present
12012022: Ford Tracker now shows "Built" (with a date of 11/30/2022 under it).

The full sentence at the site is:

Your 2023 F-150 F-150 Tremor™ has been "Built" and is currently awaiting shipment.

Does anyone have any idea on ballpark timing for "Shipped" and "Final Prep"?

I still find it a little odd that Ford hasn't sent any emails for the last two movements in the process.

Well I don't have an answer for you, but good for you because I just got the dreaded "your vehicle hasn't been built yet" and it was scheduled for November 21!

12022022: Received email from Ford that says that its been built and "Our current estimate for delivery to Granger Motors, Inc. is between Dec 11, and Dec 17.

What's odd is that I also got an email from Ford, sort of an auto generated one I am assuming, that said "While Produciton was scheduled to begin 11/21, supply chain challenges continue to casue delays and uncertainty. I'm assuming this was auto generated because the in production date looked to have been 11/27 per the tracker site.

I pinged Granger to see what their turnaround time typcially is, and they said that they ask for a week to a week and a half to get through PDI and clean up.

Given all the above, a between Christmas and New Year pick up might be in the cards.

Have you taken a look at the Tracker site?

That's awesome, you must be stoked, prepare yourself for the insane rake, otherwise the Tremor is the best trim ;)

Not to rain on your parade, but quite a few granger builds are “stuck” at KC (after rail from Dearborn) awaiting convoy to granger ... some for 30 days + (weekly ETA push outs). I hope you (and I) are the exception 🙏

Ouch! I had not heard that. Yes...hopefully, we dodge that delay. For lots of reasons....one, I want my truck, and two, I'm not super excited for it to be just hanging around some KC railyard.

We understand it has been too long since you last heard from us. Just wanted to give you an update on the status of your F-150 TREMOR® order. While production of your vehicle was projected to begin the week of November 21, 2022, supply chain challenges continue to cause delays and uncertainty.

This is frustrating, we get it. We want nothing more than to get your Ford up on the line and start assembling it. And we will continue to work hard to reduce the delays to try to get you on the road in your new vehicle soon.

We’ll be sure to keep you updated as we get more information, at least once every 45 days. Hang in there. We really do appreciate your patience and understanding.

Looks like the supply chain got me !!

I got the same email....on the SAME DAY I got the "Your F150 has been built" email!

Look at the tracking site. I think it has the best info.

Here's what I think happened to me. I got the email that said it was scheduled to be built the week of 11/21.

Then the tracker posted a date under "In Production" of 11/27, and then a "Built" date of 11/30.

So since 11/30 fell out of the "Week of 11/21" window, I think I got the auto generated email that you got. However, since it was actually then built, I got the Built email too.

Again, I would just check the tracker and see what it's saying.

Ford needs to "eat it's own cooking". Do folks ever proof read, or tour their own sites?

At the tracking site, it says this.....

Built
Your vehicle has been built and we are arranging shipment to your dealer. This step could take a few days to a week. Select the "Learn About Your Vehicle" link for information and videos about your new vehicle.

There is no "Learn About Your Vehicle" link!

There is a "New Vehicle Guide" button. But I don't see anything on the site with a link matching their quoted name.

It's this little attention to details that I feel like is slipping all across our society.

Well, my estimated delivery "between Dec 11 and Dec 17" has come and gone. Neither dealer, Ford, or tracking site has contacted me with any update. Maybe tomorrow (Monday) will bring some news from one of those sources.

Received an email today from the dealer. Build date was 11/20 but the Ford Order Status page still says in production, while the dealer says, "I do not know why that site has not updated, but for a little while now it has been awaiting shipment."

Oh bother, hope everyone had a great Christmas!
