4/3/2023 Build Week

[davidkelly05]

Did't see anything started for the 4/3/23 build week. Got the email last week that I finally got my order scheduled.

Originally placed 5/5/22 - SuperCrew, 5.0, Lariat 502A, BAP. Got moved to 2023 MY on 9/8/22. Removed BAP on 2/16/23 and recieved the build week finally on 3/2/23 for 4/3. Fingers crossed for not a bunch more delays. Nice to finally have a VIN and estimated production date at least.

LETS GO!

Your order was stalling because of BAP?

 

[davidkelly05]

Appears so. Dealer indicated that was the package most likely slowing it down from what they had been hearing/seeing. So I pulled it and it got scheduled pretty quick after.

I was told that the dual exhaust on BAP was an issue with the 3.31 axle and wouldn’t be resolved till May. I switched my axle to the 3.73 and within 2 weeks my build was scheduled. Ordered 8/12/22. Built 3/1/23. Awaiting shipment to dealer.

Received an email today (3/16) that my truck is scheduled for the week of 4/3. Ordered on 2/27, confirmed by Ford 2/27.

Lariat 501a, supercrew, 6.5' box, 5.0 4x4, sport and max tow packages

My dealer gave me a VIN this weekend and a build date of 4/3; which the Ford order tracker confirmed today.

Ordered 9/10/2022. Lariat 502A. Supercrew 6.5' box. 5.0 V8, 4x4, Max Tow. Pro-power onboard. Blue Cruise. Bed Scales.

Deletes: Heated Steering wheel. Center Mounted Stop Light camera. Advanced Security Pack. Multi-Contour seats. Park Assist.

Hopefully it does not get delayed too much more. I needed to buy a sedan in September, and traded my 2014 Supercab 6.5' STX because the Subaru dealer gave me a much better price than the Ford dealer, but I'm really beginning to missing the truck to do "truck stuff" and even test drove a RAM a couple weeks ago.

Looks like my order got moved up a week, and is currently in production! Still can't pull my window sticker (even though it says it should be available)....wonder how long that will take to be there. I'll let you know if anything is missing on mine (other than the known items).

Same here! I checked the tracker Friday and it still said scheduled week of 4/4. Checked again Tuesday and now it says in Production! Lariat 501a, supercrew, 6.5', 5.0 4x4 max tow, sport package.

Got two emails from Ford last night! My truck is built and already marked shipped. I know there's still plenty of time until it may actually ship and reach the dealer, but glad the emails keep coming and the tracker keeps updating!

2-27-23 order date
2-27-23 confirmed by Ford
3-16-23 scheduled for production week of 4-4-23
4-5-23 built
4-6-23 "shipped"

Estimated delivery 4/24 - 5/2

Lariat 501a, supercrew, 6.5' box, 5.0, 4x4, sport package, max tow package

I got the email on Monday that mine was 'built' and waiting final inspections and would be shipping soon. I logged back in to check today and it still shows as 'built' with a 4/2 date but nothing else added. Ironically something must have gotten mixed up on the tracker because it shows as "order confirmed" and the status earlier this week it showed "Built"

My truck was in production 4/6, built 4/12. Still in the "BUILT" state awaiting shipment. I called the dealer and he says it is on Ramp 59 at Dearborn. His dealer ETA is 5/3, but he said he would have a lot more confidence in the ETA when the truck starts moving. The window sticker says "CONVOY", but he says they always ship via rail to Newark then get on the truck for the last bit to the dealership.

So close, at least the truck exists with most of the options that I want after 7 months (the bed camera removal is a bit dissatisfying, but I am excited for BlueCruise).

Ordered RR Plat 150-PB SCREW 701a BAP with spray-in BL and moonroof 2/28/23
Received VIN next day with expected built week 4/11
Production started 4/4/23 and also received Window Sticker, which showed no additional deletes (other than the heated SW, Park assist, rear camera, message seats)
4/11/23 status moved to “built”, then received email on 4/13 confirming “built” status, and performing final inspections on your vehicle, getting ready for shipment

Since it went to “built” status, window sticker disappeared.
Dealership mentioned that it could be in limbo waiting for certain chips, even though it shows at “built”.

Good luck! Mine got delivered and I picked mine up last week and am loving it.

Congrats! Still waiting for mine to show up. Ford chat gave me the rail car, so yesterday I called and the system was last updated 4/18 showing in Ohio. Hopefully it's nearly to, or in Buffalo now.
