Congrats that is awesome news!

Also gives me the smallest bit of hope for this year. My blend date is tomorrow(15th) and my dealer is fairly close. (180 miles)
@jaturner, I'm in Ohio, about 3 hours south of the plant so my fingers are crossed. Especially since the message was that the transporter took delivery. MAN!

The Ford system still shows that the truck is In Production and I told the dealer that but he said his old Locator shows the same thing but his new system shows it Built and Delivered to the Transporter.

@EdwinT, I know...I'm almost thinking that they're pulling my leg. He said its possible to even get it before years end. I'm not really prepared because I thought I had another month but I just setup an loan appointment with my CU for tomorrow. I've had the conversation with my insurance agent already...whoa.

I wonder if Ford adding that 3rd shift is having an impact?
The third shift def helps, but it's also proper logistics I assume. They want to show the highest number of deliveries possible, so they will set themselves up for success to do that. Things like scheduling far deliveries first/short deliveries last, mod shop items accordingly, etc

We are very close to each other then. 3 Hours south as well.... right down 75.

Might be on to something about trying to deliver to dealers close for the end of year.

I'm not sure where you find what number you are in the order queue. Is it on the window sticker?

Here are couple of 12/15 builds, these two trucks have spray in liner, so the SQ1 and SQ3 get screwed up when they do the day after revision, but the SQ2 (number to the right of the blend date never change, though it only runs from 8000-8999 and recycles back to 8000 as week to week production rolls onward

ok read that whole thread. for anyone else wondering, you can check your modules and tear tag here - https://www.motorcraftservice.com/AsBuilt/Details

modules are basically the parts of the car being installed, once those start populating, it means your truck is really in production.

tear tag means your car is basically built, but some people have had chip holds after this.
I'm trying to find my module information using your link above but it is sending me to a page that says it isn't valid. Any to other way for me to get to this information, please? Thanks!

Thanks a bunch! It worked. Curious - what will I see once the modules start populating? Does anyone have an example? My blend date is tomorrow, 12/15.
Here is a Sunday 12/11 blend, showing a bunch of modules and a tear tag....
