My sticker has the same blend date, and my dealer says it's scheduled for production on 2/11 ... tomorrow!!!

I'm not exactly sure what the blend date is, but it seems (anecdotally) that for most folks it's a day or two before the actual production date. I read one post speculating that the blend date is when they start picking the parts for the assembly line or something. That theory doesn't seem entirely crazy.

Yes the blend date (Buck) date is the day the parts are placed on the line and the truck starts production. It takes approximately 22 - 24 hours for the truck to be produced. So when the line is at 3 shifts the truck is normally produced the next day and the trackers will be updated the follow day. This week Ford is only running 1 shift so the truck will be in production for approximately 3 to 4 days prior to the update. If you have the spray in bedliner or tonneau cover that is installed at a different line and will be done within a few days after the truck is produced... The truck will not show built until both items are complete as necessary. I have posted a Guidance to the Ford Tracker in another link that explains the tracker status / updates.

Just updated mine this am and it shows In production 2/10 with delivery 3/22. From what others have posted doubt 5 weeks for delivery but whatever finally happening.

Any status changes from “in production”?

My blend was 2/8 with a production date of 2/9. I’ve gotta assume it’ll take 3 days to complete given the single shift at Dearborn. Fingers crossed we see them complete into the weekend! ?

My build day is today, and the Window Sticker was just re-issued with minor updates to some of the fields... It's being built in KC so hopefully I get an ETA soon.

Dealer sent me a build report today, said the truck was built. I asked what, "sent to offsight" was, she replied sent to shipping. Tracker not updated yet to reflect built awaiting shipping, but hopefully soon.

Release to body, sent offsite is most likely to install Spray in BedLiner or Tonneau cover etc. Its likely to be they about 3 - 4 days and then shipped.

Finally got an update on the tracker. Confusing as my blend date says 2/10 and dealer confirmed it was off the line on 2/12 and awaiting the tonneau cover install..don't understand the Scheduled for Prod Date of 2/15 unless that is the date the cover was installed. Either way progress...hopefully the ETA holds.

Been checking on my pretty basic 500A 3.5 ecoboost order being built in KC...ordered 11/6/20...blend date of 2/10/21...still says in production. No wheel well liners (i'll add them), no spray in bedliner (linex when it gets here), no running boards (adding my own), no tonneau cover (adding my own), no work surface, no pro power. Not sure what the hold up is on mine lol...should have went right down the line with no add-on mods afterwards. Micro chip shortage...now the plant shutdown...what's next? Might as well order a 2022 Tremor at this point if the wife will let me!! I guess I could ask for forgiveness later!

Yeah, I had a similar build as yours scheduled for 2/12. I fully expect it took a few days to complete the build due to just the one shift working last week. Mine still says in production, as well. I have a 501a PB, but no bed liner, wheel well liners, work surface, etc. So should go straight to shipping after it reaches the end of the assembly line. I don't think it'd be unreasonable to not see movement on the trackers until later this week. Here's hoping for a quick transit to all of us!

Looks like there is finally some real movement. Dealer told me that my limited PB could be here as early as the 24th.
