8/8/2022 Build Week

[c35cannon]

I guess a small delay (chip hold) getting the truck to me is a good thing. We are about to completely gut our garage clear to the studs in 1-2 weeks. We are going to insulate the walls and ceiling and cover the walls with some type of ply or chip board and paint. Add lots of shelving and LED strip lights. The White Star is gonna sleep in a palace.

Im jealous! Sasuke is going to have to brave the PNW weather. Thinking about putting a ceramic coating on it. Any suggestions everyone?

I am thinking the same. If i had the extra money id rather invest in paint protection film.

Jumping in from 8/1. I have 706, 716, 721, 724, 725, 726, etc, a tear tag and an activate button in Ford Pass. I spec'd a fully optioned Lariat 502a 7.2kw PB. The only things I did not check was CCD (N/A with FX4), worksurface and under seat storage. Does 720 even apply to the PB's? It seems that everyone is hung up on that.
All I know is that I am still in production, either due to chips or the bed liner.

I’m right there with you. Have no idea what’s going on. All I can do is wait and hope it gets done soon. I have a similar build as you.

Have you checked with Ford chat? They told me today they were doing maintenance on tracker. So you may be built.

Well boys i got the wife ride cleaned up and ready to leave for vacation tomorrow. A week on the beach should help keep my mind off things for a bit! We will soon have ford siblings!

I will definitely be doing some PPF on the White Star. I know I'll do the rocker pannels and front bumper, and perhaps up to the hard crease around the body. I keep cars for 10 years and want to keep that paint perfect.

I'm trying to decide on a bug deflector or PPF for the hood. So far I've not found a bug deflector I like.

Have fun man!

No. With the other posts about delays with the bed liner, I am just chocking it up to that. The Order Status website said 45 days estimated to be in production status. It will show up when it shows up. After 8 months 7 days, what are a few more?

Debating on ppf for bumper and hood. It's expensive and I'm doing/done so much so far. I will probably tackle the adams graphene ceramic coating. Getting ceramic tint or 3m crystalline on all windows and pano. Anyone else with BAP have the black gorilla lug nuts ready? I'll paint chrome exhaust tip asap too.

I was just reviewing the 720 IPC module spreadsheet. I am not so convinced that it doesn't apply to higher end trucks if not all trucks. Some of the instructions include low wiper fluid warning, ABS functions, heated seats and steering wheel, and a ton of other functions.

Yea, it can be expensive. I've installed before with precut and it was a challenge. But not sure of there are any precut PPF for our trucks.

I have the activate button as well. Great!

Figured I'd give my update.... presumably built on 8/11, I now have modules (including the 720s; if I'm missing any I sure wouldn't know), but I saved a copy of the list in .pdf on 8.13.2022 0255 .... last time I could check I still had no tear tag and was still "in production" status (didn't notice addition of a date.) ... As of now and since all day 8/13 as I recall have had no luck with ordertrack app and the ford tracker - both seem to be in a down status. Hopefully built with no other hiccups. I don't expect delivery any time soon - but in a month would be nice.

Edit: I did get my Tear Tag and the "In Production" date has been populated.

 

[PaulO]

Still no modules populated. The only thing I have is a production date on the tracker of 8/12 and the activate button on the FordPass app. I did notice on the OrderTrack website that it says "time in status." Does anyone know how accurate that time is? It says I have another 12 hours or so. I'm hoping tomorrow is a big day of updates.
