Just spoke to the dealer. He said mine has shipped but Ford has not updated it with a train car number. He said the tracking once it ships is questionable at best. He has 4 trucks sitting on their lot that on the trackers say they are still in Illinois and we are in Utah.

It has not escaped my notice that people with Chewbacca as their avatar get their trucks shipped so ... it's worth a shot. *changes pic*

Haha. Hoping that truck gets loaded and shipped in less than 12 parsecs.

Some movement this morning - a change in palsapp. Palsapp "destination" and "destination name" columns populated with dealership info but "status" column remains pending. Although, Ford tracker still does not have checkmark for "built" and f150gen14 tracker still indicates "Awaiting Shipment".

Maybe this Chewbacca avatar change is real. :)

I just placed a second truck order. Primarily because I wanted to add some features that I left off the first order but also thinking it could reach the dealership in the same time range as my first order. First order is with Chapman Ford (3% below invoice) and second order is with Koons Woodbridge (5% below invoice). The second order has $2000 more in options but due to below invoice pricing the cost only went up $1000. Order is a Lariat PB and I added 7.2kw power, interior work surface, power tailgate and spray in bed liner.

Awesome. Curious how your second order moves along. I did the same ~3 weeks ago. Haven't seen a VIN/build week yet but good chance VIN was assigned yesterday. Ford apparently returned to scheduling F150s this week - I think they do this on Thursdays.

My plan with the dealership: If my 2nd build is scheduled before my 1st truck arrives then, I will probably wait for the 2nd. However, based on the forum traffic, it looks like they are scheduling out in late November/early December now. Not sure I can muster the patience to wait any further, even if my 2nd build has some of those things I really wanted.

Good luck with your order and curious to hear how it goes.

Did you give them your railcar number or did they give it to you?
