Kansas City plant are they up and running

[JayceeP]

Hopefully it’s built this week,

I also don’t think it’s a coincidence that April 21 was a Wednesday and May 6/7 were a Thursday Friday. You are imminent for production. I’m a May 7 blend and 1800+ sequence number myself.

Hope your right,I know there’s guys out here since October November waiting but 6 months for me is a long time..plus I don’t see any of the plants going back to normal production till the fall at the earliest and with ford launching so many vehicles this year there going to be really picky who gets the parts first…

I have a blend date of April 21 seq 7832. Still show a 1990 -01 - 01 ETA date
hopefully it will change tomorrow.

Hey, did yours update yet? Hoping it is, so we can confirm this scheduling theory

No still hasn’t changed

So from what I see- blends from April 15?? up to April 21 with 7063 sequence # got built since KC opened last week. I’m not sure what the actual starting blend was but it seemed like April 15 was it.

The 7063 sequence # above shows on its window sticker that it has a spray in liner so it obviously won’t ship right away assuming no chip issues. The trackers ETA for it is August 3rd.

What is the theory? Interested in your thoughts.

Ive been going off JayceeP research. Basically that KC is building trucks in order of when the plant shut down. Many trucks with April blend dates seem to have been built. Nobody seems to have a blend between April 21 and May 6 for KC. Mark has a high sequence number. I dont know how high that number goes but if all this is true, mine should be getting built soon. I have a May 6th blend 1046 sequence on my window sticker. I will say I have a spray liner and wheel well liners so we'll see what happens.

Interesting. So it seems they are likely running at least a week behind in terms of stated blend dates being produced? (For example, if pre June blend dates are still coming off the line, those from last week are not in the pipeline yet either. )

Yeah it could be due to the reopening being only 1 shift too. We'll just have to wait and see. There seem to be a good number of people with May 6 and 7 blend dates. I'm not sure where they line up after that

Afternoon,I have had 3 different build dates starting April 5th and through my contact at the plant it was supposed to be built may 7th and after rechecking it’s supposed to be built this week but I’m still showing in production with a date of 1990..I ordered it Jan 28.

That is horrible. Sorry for you really.

Do you have any options that could cause delay?

That's pretty common once you're built. Myself and several others all had their ETAs jump a week to 10 days once they came off the line, and is usually a sign you did at least get built, then once it ships it seems like it usually comes back down to the original ETA, or close to it anyway. If shipping out of KC is anything like Dearborn, it should arrive a decent amount ahead of schedule. Virtually everyone from Dearborn has been beating their ETAs by a week or more.

Bro, You really tripped me out for a minute, until I saw you are in Cincinnati. I've been following your order on the ford tracker for a couple weeks because yours is coming from the same dealer as mine.

Trying to see how long it takes you to get delivered.

As a data point for you. My original order (I reordered) a couple months ago that was coming from Dearborn took 7 days to arrive once it shipped.
