Truck marked as in production yesterday, window sticker populated some time last night, blend date of the 24th! Dearborn plant
I thought the window stickers would get populated a week or so in advanced. Hopefully it keeps moving along, keep us posted.

I am now joining you folks on the 4/19 Build Week. I just found out yesterday and confirmed I have a window sticker as of today.

Platinum 701A, Star White. PowerBoost, Twin Panel, ProPower, Interior Work Surface, Trailer Tow, Partitioned Lockable Storage, Max Recline.

Ordered: 1/25/2021
Blend date: 4/24/2021
Previously scheduled: 4/8/2021 (delayed)

I read more about another plant shutdown affecting this week. So waiting to see what's next!

Hang in there. Its been a ride for some of us and a travesty for others. I do feel bad for the folks that ordered in 2020 and still have no build date, Vin, or even worse Ramp 59 hell.
I made the decision early in my selection process to go to the limited. Had everything that I wanted as standard, and the things that I'd never use as optional. (I.E. max recline and work surface) I'm starting to believe that my choice in the limited trim is the only reason why I'm moving forward. (Especially since I ordered from a smaller DFW family run dealer) Its still not built yet, but has become real as there is a real Maroney sticker for the thing. Fingers crossed that she is built this Saturday.

Have you gone to f150forum.com and asked Pioneer74 for info? I'd suggest that you do, as its more helpful information than your dealer and can tell you if you've been pushed or not.
Hi there friend! I’ve gone to the other forum and come up empty handed. It’s very hard to navigate! If I gave you my info, would you be willing to ask Pioneer74 on my behalf?

Here you go. You should now be able to use the tracker on here with your order number and the VIN.

My dealer was shocked that I had a VIN. Can they really not check this stuff, or are they just not trying? Either way, thanks again for helping a gal out.

Mine moved from "In Production" (since 4/1 before Dearborn shutdown) to "In Production 4/22" today. The f150gen14 tracker is still behind/not showing the update.

This means the truck is actually going down the line, I'm pretty sure.

If I get changed to built/shipped in the next few days that's good news for all you in this build week, as they probably have enough - or are prioritizing - chips for trucks coming off the line.
Fingers crossed

No worries... They can, but if its like my dealer, only one guy has the credentials to do it. (IE the SGM) Its the sales staff not wanting to bother asking. Mine flat told me this, so to the internet I went.

If I were the SGM I would check all the custom orders every week and give people updates. In the two months since I ordered I couldn’t get them to check into it even once. The whole reason I ordered from my local dealer was for service, but I think I would have been better off ordering from a dealership that has a better process for their custom orders!

Fully agree here. Not sure how this works in their business model....

Aside from here on the forum, where are you guys finding out about the order status as above? I have looked on shop.ford.com but don’t see this graphic display listed. I put my VIN in there but it doesn’t show up.
