Try to get updates on if the plant Kansas City is up and running? I believe I seen article June 14th they may start up the F-150 again. I've have one on order since April 16th.

Good question, that is the last I saw as well. I have been seeing people get their blend dates etc for Dearborn but haven’t yet seen anyone report getting one for KC.

Myself I had ordered in March (so no sorry for the delay rebate for me), originally had a build week of 6/7... still no window sticker or blend date so my assumption is I’m now somewhere out past week of 6/14.

Hopefully KC does start that week and I get in soon. Dealership has another custom order similar to mine that has shown in their inventory for two weeks now, might just inquire about that one even tho it has the lariat sport seats and doesn’t have the pro power.

I had seen June 14th for the start as well.

I have a March 22 order date and was originally scheduled for a 3 May build. I have slid 4 times since then. I am now set for a 4 July build date per Ford Customer support. If that happens....well, I am a vet.

That's disappointing to hear your new build date is in July. I have a Feb. Order with a 05/07 blend date in Kansas. I saw the plant shut down the week of the 3rd. So essentially right on our week. This made me assume when the re opened on the 14th of June they would continue where they left off. (At our week). I wonder what they are doing in that 3 weeks instead... Either way, the bright side is our trucks arnt parked somewhere and I would assume will be built without any of those recent recall and rust problems... But I was hoping to be driving it at the beginning of July. Your new blend date seems to say otherwise. Mine hasn't changed from 05/07 but I know it will have to at some point....

That would be a pretty cool build date to have, hope it happens for ya! Was there a certain customer support line you called or just the general support line?

I certainly hope so. I ordered on January 21st. Pushed back multiple times due to closure. Window sticker is produced and truck order was sent to plant since the end of April.

I asked my dealer on mine and he says his shows June Build date in August 9 delivery. I like to have the on board scales on mine. but dealer believes it's a software update. I was hoping to add it to my order but I'm not sure if it's just a software update or they got to put sensors and all that other stuff in it.

I believe there's more to that in just an update.
