Today is the day of my build. My build was sent to the Dearborn plant a week ago (21st). I'll reach out to my dealer for an update on May 7th (8-week mark). I figure waiting that long for an update after the build will be enough time to at least get an update on the projected delivery date.
Typically it updates 2-4 days after your build day. But who knows with these chip shortages

From what I've read: 1.)More profitable vehicles get build first. 2.) Chips are used up now on customer orders first, both on the assembly line plus those that been sitting around.
My ETA has always been 5/1. Dealer however said realistically, middle of May. Gonna find out soon.
Not everything on ramp59 is long term storage. My previous trucks all ended up there in the past
It does appear to be ready for shipping, although it hasn't been "Released" yet and it dont show" Awaiting Shipment" either, which happens at the same time as "Released" shows up. This is the order things happened on my 2018 Plat....

Window sticker on my 4/26 build truck just changed at bottom to reflect Sold to: , Ship to: , Final Assembly plant and method of delivery: Convoy.
No change on Ford or Forum trackers as yet.
Does this window sticker update mean anything is happening?, Should I check with dealer to see if they have an ETA etc?
When it does ship is there a way to track convoy delivery as i have seen so many discussions of tracking Railcar delivery

Wait so if it's showing info about transportation does that mean it's fully built?? No waiting for chips?? Is there hope for us not to end up in ramp 59 hell???
Unfortunately it appears that their truck is headed to ramp 59. Should say released when it's fully built and ready for shipment.

I thought that too. I believe the second line is the transpiration TO ramp 59 and the first line item is the "received" at ramp 59. Hope I'm wrong.

Dont be shy! Call your dealers and have them track your vehicles. Only takes them a (1) minute to do. If the sales man don't have authority to access that info, ask for the manager.

I believe you're correct. My 2018 Plat sat at ramp 59 for 4 days before being shipped.

I was looking at my window sticker and saw the ship to address in the lower lefthand corner was somewhere in Michigan. Turns out it's the address of the liner installer.
Mine is getting done at a place called Ground Effects Ltd at 15200 Commerce Dr Dearborn, MI. I checked out the google map and I see why it takes forever. Trucks on trucks on trucks all in a line waiting for it.
I also noticed the Ramp One box of my window sticker says CC59. Hope that doesn't mean it's already scheduled to not be fully built if that means ramp 59.
