I DONT THINK SO TALKED TO ford California REGIONAL SALES REP GAVE HIM VIN AND HE COULD NOT FIND IT AT THE kc plant , they are double dribbling with my vin number , dealer sales manager was kicking me $2,000 grand if I kept my order , I work for for the power company that buys 600 to 800 trucks a years from this dealer , they were not happy with a plant with NO answers , oh well . VIN FTFW1E8XMKE05340 ORDER #F011 , THEY HAVE NO CLUE WHERE THIS TRUCK IS ,
His blend is 4/21 so it's built, just stuck with the rest of us.
Unfortunately, I think your truck is not yet built and fell into a weird grey area, which is why your dealer can't find it.

Kansas City trucks that were assigned a blend date prior to the plant shutdown on 4/19, where the actual blend date fell after the shutdown (in your case, 4/21), will not get an updated sticker with a new blend date until it's rescheduled at the plant, if at all.

The likely situation here is that your truck has to be rescheduled. It's still unclear for this specific scenario, how Ford is prioritizing the those 8-10 days of blend among the other trucks that were ordered after the shutdown and scheduled for the first week back.

If anything good can be said here, at least it's not sitting outside for months.

Picked up my Platinum today. Ordered 3/2, production 4/30 “built” 6/13 Delivered to PA 6/18. So happy. No rust on rear, will be covering with some CRC inhibitor tomorrow.
Getting ceramic coat on this Smoked Quartz ASAP. A lot of compliments on this color already.

Mainly wanted to say that I was surprised I did get the $500 incentive in addition to all my original incentives. I’ve been unclear about the parameters, but something lead me to believe I did not qualify.

Thank you guys for all the info and support!

What is the forum tracker saying on your trucks?
Mine has shown consistently what is going on. It matches both the Ford Tracker and the info my dealer provides. When they were produced (4/29 adn 4/30) dealer said they were done and on chip hold. When my 4/30 shipped the Forum Tracker, Ford Tracker, and Dealer all had it shipped on 6/9. All 3 showed and ETA of 6/24. Looks like it will be delivered to me the 21st or 22nd. The other still has 10/31 in all 3 locations.

Picked it up today but has to go back on Monday for the bed liner. No real rust on the diff and a blast to drive. Now I need to figure out all of the controls.
