2025 F-150 production and scheduling

[Stormpeakco]

Interesting. I have a blend date on window sticker, shows January 3rd. How can that be if no one is home? Technology is always interesting. But only as smart as the one who programed it. Haha.

Could it be the computers scan bar codes need for a particular build and then state
"yup we have all the goods to build this'n soon".

I’m wondering why I never been able to see my window sticker? If I go to ford tracking site it show vehicle built and shipped but never can get window sticker.

Ugh.
On another site...folks this week are taking possession of their ordered '25 F150s (one a platinum w/ 6.5' bed-ordered early 9/2024) and there are some eyewitness reports of dealers, beginning to accumulate '25 inventory on their lots!

Our F-150 Platinum moved to built status yesterday with a estimated delivery of 1/3/2025.

Our dates:
8/30/24: Order Confirmed
12/9/24: Scheduled Week of
12/13/24: In production
12/28/24: Built

The truck had the spray-in bedliner, so it had to take a visit to the other shop for that.

I've been in production since 12/2. KR, Powerboost.

Truck has been sitting in QA Hold since 12/10.

Just received my first email update from VinView, it appears I'm out of QA Hold and getting ready to ship! (The Ford order tracking site still says I'm in production)

Product Type: 2025 FORD F-150
Intelligent ETA to Dealer: 30/01/2025 16:34

Sweet!
We also are awaiting our KR, powerboost 7.2kw.
Sounds like it is at right about 4 mos from order to ownership...wonder if this pares down more after full production ensues again following the holidays (IF the Lions don't go on to win it all).

I live in the NW burbs of Chicago and 2025's that were shown as "dealer ordered" on Ford's inventory started showing "just arrived" this morning.

Do lower trim levels with few or no options take less time order to delivery? No spray in bedliner, etc.

No real clear answer. Parts, etc have more weight. I have kr on order and lower, higher trims were all done before me so no clarity that the production order follows any fixed path. I do believe spray bed liner adds a couple days before it would be ready to ship.

 

[Stormpeakco]

Makes sense. Once one has been given a blend date and a build week, then new ones roll out @ 53 secs of the day for two shifts @ the Rouge plant. Only a few trims come out of KC but I wonder if time for receiving may be delayed once lightning (and their line workers) manufacturing has resumed later on in Jan '25.

I got a belated Christmas present from Ford yesterday when I opened my email. I got a $ 2,500 pco off my new Ford truck that I have on order from Granger.

Congrats! What truck do you have on order? You mean you will be getting an additional $2,500 off the 4% under invoice price?
