11/27 build week members, make sure you pull a PDF copy of your window sticker Wednesday evening [11/8], it will show the original sequence numbers, while the Thursday morning version will show changes to the values if you have a spray in bed liner option.

I'm curious what the total gross volume will be, below is an example of build week 11/20 where 898 is the gross production volume.

The factory has caught with production effective on blend day 11/13

Good luck!!

If any forum members are perusing their local dealer inventories for stock orders still in production let me know of any VIN's you see with blend dates 11/27 to 12/3, I need to capture the gross volume value discussed in post 2.

I would imagine that the line is retooling for the '24 production at this point. No '23 inventory from these weeks would reach dealer in time to qualify for the cash back rebates... No?

I don't think it matters with regard to getting product to dealers by the end of a promotional event, listening to Tim [fordvideoguy] reports it seems production will continue through week starting 12/11 - 12/17.

They are expected to start MY24 beginning later, the week of Christmas and New Years, might involve a pause in production for semi-annual plant maintenance, then resume early January.

Looking ahead, production of the 2024 Ford F-150 Lightning will kick off on 2024 Ford F-150 on December 18th, 2023.

Truck is on track blending started 11/28 tear tag today

 

[TaxmanHog]

Off by a day, still acceptable

I went ahead and added my build to the tracker. This was actually a dealer ordered truck that I put a deposit on. Lariat ER with factory bed liner.

Order confirmed: 9/15/23
Scheduled week: 11/27/23
In Production: 11/29/23

Still hasn't been confirmed "built" yet. Window sticker in the top right says it's 181/242

I've been trying to dig through to understand timing of the process better. Think I'm on track for delivery before end of year? Lots of tax implications for me if that window is missed.

Go here: https://www.motorcraftservice.com/AsBuilt/

Enter your VIN. Look for a long list of alphanumeric strings, and look for a similar string beside the words "Tear Tag" near the top. Report back.

Also, it looks like you got a spray-in bed liner or tonneau? "181/242" suggests that you are in a secondary queue. But if you have a tear tag, then the truck is built, and it will take a few extra days to get that finish work done.

The Rodman dealer truck I am tracking above has not reached "BUILT" status yet either, typically it's 7-10 days past in production, but the fact you're dealer is 196 miles from the Rouge plant, it will ride a convoy truck and be at your dealership the same day it ships. Good luck, hopefully you get the truck in possession before close of New Years eve.
