Mine says in production 12/11. Tear tag populated and Fordpass now shows a picture of the truck instead of a blank image.
Never thought to check Ford Pass lol it's a official now. Have a picture as well that's something I guess still can't bring myself to activate it

I did a Ford Chat myself and she said my vehicle was produced 12/9 with estimated delivery of 12/25-12/30. She wouldn't clarify weather it was "built" or on a chip hold but to contact my dealer for more info. I want to be excited but I'm expecting a January delivery
sweeeeet!! I hope we get our trucks! I have hope! check out this guy getting his in 21 days from belnd to NC!! https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/threads/?-11-14-lightning-build-week-group-my2023.12470/post-283459

EDIT: he also has spray-in which we know to take longer to manufacture

To NJ it’s going to be super close but there is a possibility. You’re lucky that you’re at a not so far off latitude and on the same side of the Mississippi as Detroit. Don’t make any travel plans between Christmas and New Years as sometimes Ford gets their estimates correct. Once the train drops off your truck it all depends on how often your dealer gets shipments. That’s going to be your biggest and most frustrating hurdle as you will lose 100% of your already limited visibility into the shipping process.
oh man I hope my dealer gets deliveries everyday lol

Hey 12/05ers. I'm not seeing any of the 12/11 blenders showing as having an "In production" date yet, which is strange. Let me know if you can see anything via the tracker.

@Gaalpwrd @mattb @AAnative @brewski @F150Blue @theblunden @Jonwithanelcamino Let me know what your "In Production" dates are when you get a chance

@umbrop I am getting an error when I try to track you VIN. Are you having issues?

I reached out to Ford via chat and got this info...

Your order currently shows In Production-Sent Offsite-Rouge Electric Vehicle Center (revc), MI-ETA for status updates is Dec-20-2022. When the vehicle ships the status will update to In Transit. At that time we may have additional shipping information. We also recommend staying in contact with your dealership as they have access to the most accurate and up to date information about your vehicle order.

Not really sure what to make of "sent offsite" but I am hoping its not a chip hold.

Like I've been saying. Ford will do whatever it takes to have a good end of year report for their EVs. shareholders are looking for them to exceed expectations, so a little money spent now could yield benefits for them later. Hopefully it's not at the expense of forgetting to put something in lol

Shows an image where? When you click account top right? Then it says “my vehicles” ?

OK AAnative here.

Blend 12/9. In production 12/9. Tear Tag today 12/12.
Pro in Avalanche with Max Tow and Pro Power.

Now what? Anything I should track or is it just a waiting game?
I only live about a two hour drive from the factory so i'm crossing my fingers for a 2022 delivery.
