I don't believe it...

Thank god.....not sure how much longer Jobu can handle doubling up on the rum.

Watch.....after you get yours built, all remaining orders will get our VIns.

We will rename you Bottleneck.

Negative, but my understanding is once it enters "In Production" on the tracker, the WS is not far behind.

Yours will be the first King Larado Limited Ranch Mustang GT built with no sticker.

"Were we supposed to install a roof?"

"Dont know, no sticker. Just wing it"

That’s awesome! Prayer last night for you guys seemed like its being answered.

WS on app seemed to show up before the Ford tracker for me. That was a definite endorphin hit when it popped up.

Dotto here, including the endorphin hit, lol!

My WS showed up on the Ford Tracker a full day later than on the independent Order Tracker site, fortunately no difference in content (e.g. blend date did not change).

Looks like we did it guys!

So what's the difference between blend date and production date again? What I recall is blend date is the date that all the parts are scheduled to be available and could be 0-n days ahead of your production date, correct?

Parts are brought to the line on blend date, everything is put together and hopefully finished on production day.

Now we all must sacrifice a TV remote for the chip gods to let us through.

I'm keeping a close eye on the 5/2 build week, haven't seen any on chip hold, that's a good sign.

Ford doesn't want trucks to go on Chip hold, it costs them more money than just having em roll off the line and get directly to a dealer to be sold to an eager buyer.

I've been noticing that as well. If it does happen I can only wish you all that have sat for months on an order don't and I do being shy over a month from ordering.

Nobody deserves chip hold hell, that's worse than order purgatory.

So Ford tracker has gone back to "Order Confirmed", but the order tracker app says I'm "In Production" now, c'mon, show me that W/S so my liver can enjoy some good stuff tonight!

I’m also hopeful that this apparent news that 2022 F150 order banks many close by mid-May means the likelihood (and length) of chip holds will go down as Ford will hopefully be able to keep up with demand and process aging orders.

Mine did this too, I think you’re good. Should have a sticker by this evening.

I'd be very very surprised if they close order banks for 2022 without opening 2023 order banks immediately. Completely closed order banks just seems like a foolish business decision to me, but what the heck do I know.

Ford tracker has never changed for me to anything other than "order confirmed". App shows "In Production" still...
