05/30/2022 Build Week

[FirstTimeFrank]

It is bittersweet, isn't it? My 701A is set to be built tomorrow, like yours missing a few features I upgraded to a Platinum to get. Waiting this long sucked, but I'm glad its almost over.

I think the sweetness is about to overtake the bitterness. Good luck with your build. It seems like those of us who recently received Window Stickers are getting Ford’s A-game.

Also, with the recent announcement that many unscheduled F-150’s are being forced to choose between reorder-for-2023-and-maybe-get-Bluecruise or keep-your-order-and-lose-Bluecruise, I’m just glad that I don’t have to make that decision. Also, with all of the strife in Ukraine, and it’s impact on the global auto supply chain, I don’t see parts availability or wait times improving much in the near future. Fingers crossed that our trucks are well built and won’t require major warranty service.

My theory is it's easier for them to just finish ours than pull someone else's back into the plant from some outside field. Typical Ford bs doing what's best/easiest for the corporation rather than for their customers.

Last build day for the week, I have a feeling like we're all closing it out on chip hold.

Ford chat claimed there were no holds on my build and they gave me an eta. None of my tracking info reflects that tho, I'm still said to be in production. So who knows?

Sounds like the as built site maybe isn't updating?

In the Ford Tracker, my vehicle shows as “Built” on 6/2. However, I was notified by email on 6/4 and the changes showed up in the Ford Tracker the same day. I don’t know if the plant is running on Sundays. But if it is, give ‘em a day or two to update the tracker and send the email.

Plant runs 24/7 AFAIK, except holidays. My truck has a build date of today, and it looks like the sequence number starts over on Sunday, even though its part of the previous' week build week (I'm in 5/30 build week, sequence number 200ish, 6/5 build date).

I spoke to Ford Chat this morning, they just told me my order shows as "In Production", very similar to the others built.on 6/3-6/5.

Either something is goody with Ford's tracking or we're all headed towards chip hold.

Ford chat is iffy in my experience. The first rep I chatted with said that my build date was 6/5. The second rep said that the vehicle was “In Production” and I should contact my dealer for further details.

Just got an email this morning saying that my vehicle has shipped. The God’s are smiling down on me, and I kneel in humble thanks.

There are no gods here, this place is damned.

3rdGenF-150 now has modules populated. Hopefully that means mine will soon based on sequence number.

My modules are populated now! It feels good to be one step closer and now I can stop refreshing the Module Build Data page every 5 minutes.

Well my truck is only 80 behind yours on the assembly line so hopefully mine get populated this afternoon also
