I understand it’s an estimate here, I guess what is confusing is on Fords own tracker they messed up the math, it’s either 21 or 31. I guess my question is which is more accurate, the ETA end date or transit date.
The ETA date has been more accurate from what I have seen.

My truck is showing a build date now of Jan 21. I am curious for those that have been through this before when I should expect arrival? I have the spray in bed liner option and I heard that adds a few days and I am in Texas (Houston). How long does it typically take to build it, do the spray in, ship it to Texas? Just looking for an estimate as to which week.
MY build date was 1/19 in Dearborn it was finished 1/21 I also had the spray in bedliner . I live in the Western part of New York and my delivery ETA is 2/4 id assume it might take a little longer than that to get to where you are but who knows

Sorry for the dumb question: what does the Build-To week mean? I wanted to add the wheel well liners to my order but my dealer could not add it anymore because it was already the Build-To week... I am wondering it that is good news....

Ford plant initial provides the week it is scheduled (Build to Week) then they will provided a build to day update to the dealers... Most of us don't see the build to day until the truck is about 5 days before it build date and the car sticker shows up. FYI - Once you have you vin you can use the following for the latest information. Ford Vehicle Order Tracking

Anyone have knowledge of how many Rail Yards the USA manage auto transfers to trucks for final delivery to Dealerships and what are the specific locations? I'm in Arizona and my truck is being built 2/11/21 ... so I was interested in potential pathway to my area.

It should be listed here for the "unload" column where it says Ford. For example, NoCal unloads for in Benicia and SoCal unloads Ford in Mira Loma.

I was able to confirm with Granger Ford that my truck is now scheduled for production for the first week of March! I don’t have a VIN yet (their system was down) but hope to have that soon. I don’t know how long the transit to Iowa (dealer location) might take. Hoping I can take delivery by early April...

We have the same production date, but mine doesn't have any shipping information or dealer delivery info provided yet. Perhaps later today...i'll keep checking.

I recently bought a pull behind camper and this truck is to be the tow vehicle. ORdered the truck and the camper, both of which are very popular back in September. I have had to pass on the camper in November, December, and now the one that is on-site at the RV dealer today. Pushing that order to the next batch in mid-March.

I also ordered two kayaks, they arrived, and had to borrow a friend's truck to pick them up while they sit in my garage. Everything is getting here except the truck.
