My truck is showing a build date now of Jan 21. I am curious for those that have been through this before when I should expect arrival? I have the spray in bed liner option and I heard that adds a few days and I am in Texas (Houston). How long does it typically take to build it, do the spray in, ship it to Texas? Just looking for an estimate as to which week.

In 2018 it took 3 1/2 weeks after it was built in KC to arrive in NC.

My 2018 took 12 days to mid AL and was shipped by rail to Birmingham and trucked another 100 miles to dealer. The 2021 is on track to be the same.

I got some more good news this afternoon.

Last update I can get, waiting on truck now to carry to the dealer 100 miles away. So anytime between tomorrow and Saturday is a good bet. Sat will be 10 days total travel time.

I'm in San Antonio, and have same build week (Detroit, Hybrid). I got a really nice call from dealer today and we chatted and he's the General Manager. I talked about 'realistic delivery time' and mentioned that typically it's like 2-3 weeks after build week for delivery - yes? He said basically yes, but that I should expect it end of February far more likely than mid-late Feb.

Hope that helps you since you're basically up the road.

Question, my window sticker says Convoy for a shipping method after built. I assume that means truck any idea how long it will take to be delivered? It is being built tomorrow.

They all say that, even the ones shipped by rail.

Ok, thank you. My sticker does not mention rail at all,.

currybob thank you. Fair enough, my sticker does not mention rail so that helped with my confusion. Congrats on finally getting your new truck. Do you figure roughly a week or two after built it shows up at the dealership?

Probably a good average but really depends on the distance it has the travel. Ca is probably 3 weeks travel time.

Trains make so many stops and drop off and pick rail cars. Mine took about 5 days I think to get to Alabama but sat waiting for a truck for 13 days to take to the dealer. That is not the norm but seems to be my norm. Lol

Just got an update today! My truck, a star white powerboost, was built yesterday and is scheduled to arrive at the dealership on 2/14. I was supposed to get a Lang smoker for Valentine’s Day, which has been delayed, but I will gladly take an F150 instead ?

Nice! What was your “blend” date and where is your truck traveling to and what plant? Has the ford customer tracker updated? Mine was supposed to be built yesterday.

My “blend” from sticker is 220210129. And coming via rail. (No factory spray in liner)

Any idea how long before I see it in Houston and ready for pickup?

Date-0121, coming to PratvilleAl, DRB, the tracker was updated this morning when I checked it. My build was a day later than anticipated. Hopefully the shipping will be without any delays. Good luck on yours.
