Blend is the assembly of all the parts to make the truck.What does “blend” mean?
The blend date is the scheduled date when the assembly will begin.
In the past, the expectation was that the vehicle would be complete 1-2 days after the blend date. Currently, a truck may begin its journey down the line on the blend date, but when it rolls off the line, it may not be fully complete due to parts shortages. It could be missing a tailgate, missing a wiper control module, camera(s), etc.. In these cases, the truck is moved to a lot while it waits for parts to become available for final completion.
The truck's status will remain "In Production" from about a week before the blend date, until it is released to be shipped to the dealer, including the entire time it sits in a lot waiting on parts.
