FWIW, I'm going to try to update the spreadsheet. Between being in the hospital, desktop computer crashing, and this laptop giving me fits - it's been a bit frustrating. Just like waiting for my King Ranch on chip hold! Let me know of any changes or updates. Will try to add some folks who requested to be on the spreadsheet. @Afrankart - I seem to have missed your info for the spreadsheet. Looks like at least two trucks have been picked up - congrats! Cheers!

My truck is officially on micro chip hold, produced but on hold

Weird thing is that my dealer told me there is no hold on my VVR with ETA 03/07, but just talked to FP and they told me it is on some kind of hold which they do not know what it is(Still ETA 03/07 FROM FP), what heck is going on, who should we trust... just sold my current car, this sucks....

Unfortunately, I'm in the Micro Chip Hold status as well.

 

[4Justice]

If one wants to call Ford directly to check on status of build, what number should be called?

 

[RalpL]

I edited the spreadsheet above in Post #436 with the chip holds. As updates and changes are received, I'll just edit the latest spreadsheet and post a new one the next day. Sorry to hear about the chip holds.

 

[Leaf25]

Damn. These trains are slow. It's taken 3 weeks to go from Dearborn to Minnesota. Still has to make it 1300 miles to Spokane... come on BNSF.

Hang in there guys. I picked my truck up yesterday, and today I had a 4 hour trip from Naples to Orlando. This truck blows away my BMW X5. Its quick, and it handles great. Not what I expected from a truck.

The adaptive cruise works great. I also had a couple of opportunities to use the BlueCruise. Freaky to turn driving over to the computer, but it works. I didn't use it for extended periods, but I was really impressed. Everything so far is amazing.

Be patient...you will be rewarded.

Thanks for the words of support and encouragement! Great to hear about BlueCruise and Adaptive Cruise. I thought I might be throwing $$ away on that. I have the equivalent of Adaptive Cruise on my GLE and use it once in a while but unsure of the Ford implementation of it vs MB.

Anyone here know how ford decides what trucks to be put on chip hold?? My truck went into production 1/27 and was produced 2/21 and since then has been placed on chip hold while I’ve seen many other trucks with same options built after mine get pushed through to built and shipped… Even today a guy over on the raptor forum with the exact same optioned truck that was produced 5 days after mine got shipped, my truck is a special order and I was told that those would be given priority but apparently not.

As far as I can tell from watching the data on the various trackers, all things being equal, they are prioritized by original order date. This isn’t always the case — and I don’t have visibility into dealer stock orders, but as far as retail special orders trucks with the same options ordered on different days, the earliest order will take priority.

I find this unlikely as the truck I mentioned that had the EXACT same spec as mine was also ordered on the same date I my original order.

I'd guess there are some other factors as well. For example, I believe Ford employees and retirees have a higher priority than, say, John off the street

This weekend, tracker would not even load, but loaded this morning, and my ETA is still missing.
My dealer swears my truck is not on chip hold. They claim the truck is built, and that they think the problem is a lack of truck drivers / trucks for deliveries. I have not received any deliver notification from Ford, and Tracker still shows in production.

I don't know what to think. Once again - is there a number / department at Ford one can call to get an update directly from the manufacturer?

 

[4Justice]

So, I found the Ford Marketing number - (800) 334-4375 for those wondering. The nice lady who answered the phone advised me that my truck is (contrary to what my dealer told me) on a microchip hold. She also told me that while the system still shows a 3/23 ETA, she does not believe that is realistic. She doesn't know whether that ETA is really meant to be for delivery, or for the date they expect to get the microchip installed. She also told me that it takes up to 28 days to get delivered once built - thus her opinion that the 3/23 ETA is not realistic. (
