Window Stickers for build week 4/10 are posting now!!

Another massive renumbering of window stickers for build week 2/6 to 4/10, this number is likely the sum of the three stalled weeks of production 847+847+847 and 603 new builds for 4/10 for a grand total of 3144 trucks over 4 build weeks

@TaxmanHog, Should I be concerned that the truck is now headed for Michigan rather than Texas?!

If this is for builds now starting 4/10, and I'm in the middle of the pack (1612/3144), I probably won't see the truck built until the end of April.

Love the fact that I've gone from "9-normal" to "7-memo (4)!"

No worries, the last time I seen this massive resequencing of the window stickers (to this degree) was last summer after the semi-annual maintenance shutdown. The destination state code may revert to TX by Friday if not this evening.

2020 F-150 Sport 4x4; Ordered F-150 Lighting Larit
Three + Months since ordered (1/2/2023) and still no VIN or Manufacture Date. My dealer has no information to provide.

Sorry just venting in frustration, cause when I ordered - Ford was saying delivery in Spring of 23...

It looks like a bunch of us are stuck in no-man’s land between ordering and scheduling. The lack of any communication is frustrating. There must be a lot of rework going on, or all battery production is going to repair unshippable vehicles. I hope things kick free for us to get through production before the factory shuts down again in June.

Completely agree. Ordered 9/3/22 after a reservation extension, status changed to "Scheduled for Production" in late January, and absolutely nothing since.

I email the dealer and call Ford on the regular just to see if I'm missing something. Only change I got was over the phone with Ford they said it's "scheduled for the next available production week" whenever that is.

Ordered 9/3/2022: 2023 Lightning XLT, SR, 312A, Antimatter Blue (bc they discontinued Atlas)

Search your VIN here weekly to view your window sticker once it's issued [Wednesday or Thursday evenings] put your VIN to the right of the = sign after the failure screen shows

Wow, 6 months? I don't have that long of patience...
I *really* want this truck. Been fixing up my CRV and everything breaking is some ancillary ICE engine necessity (no exhaust on a BEV). Plus, I need a truck, and want to be off gas.

It looks like production scheduling has started again. Ordered 1/19/23, just received an estimated production date of 5/22/23 on the reservation page (Lariat ER).

I appreciate the link, but as far as I know I don't have a VIN yet. Below is everything from the Ford site, and no emails containing it.

I am in the same boat, I see folks that ordered after I did getting their trucks delivered. I blame it on the options i chose but it is frustrating. With ordering in December, I was hoping to have the truck by now. Instead I am hauling stuff in my 2001 Grand Cherokee (with broken AC). The truck is supposed to replace the Jeep. At least, the tax credit seems to work out for my order. Ford could do a much better job in communicating.

A bit of good news! My status *finally* changed on the Ford site: scheduled for production week of 5/1/23!!

Now to figure out how to find my VIN....
