I was initially scheduled for production this week but got punted a week. Now, I am "In Production" a week early. Just to be safe, I also checked to see and if I had any recalls. To my surprise, even though the truck is still mostly unassembled in a parts bin and maybe getting it's sheet metal painted, no recalls yet (you can never be too safe).

Still, today is a good day!

My Lariat also went into production a week early. I checked with my dealer--the customer facing order website shows things that are part of Job 2, that our Job 1 builds won't be getting (like the Pro-access tailgate). They confirmed that there haven't been any changes (at least to my order), and what I ordered is still what I'm getting.

Not as lucky as you! I was also punted from this week to the next, but I remain “Scheduled” for 3/11.

My window sticker popped up last night with a blend date for March 13.
From what I’ve read and best guess, that’s the date the body and chassis “blend” together and meet up for the first time. After that it takes about 1.5 shifts-ish to get completed and go through final QC before it leaves to get the spray in bed liner. If that’s accurate, I’ll take a Wednesday built truck.
