I guess that's a "benefit" of having an 11/14 build week. I get to hear from the rest of you as to how the process is going. So now I'm just watching and waiting to see:

Are your build dates going to get pushed back? How many times?
When is more information going to pop up in the Ford tracker?


...and then

How long is the build process?
How many weeks after build date can I expect to actually get my truck?

I think we are really seeing what it will look like - a almost color changing paint color that reflects the surroundings and changes based on lighting conditions...

Under bright direct light, like Ford authority, it will be light blue, darker more diffused light more grey blue and at night, God only knows. Lol

That's fair. I'm also no expert with this stuff. There's so much he she, she said that floats around, it's hard to know what's truly accurate. But then in the link(s) above, it sounds like window stickers are created a week before the blend date. Which would be in like 2-3 weeks from now for some of us with build dates week of 10/17.
My Window Sticker was available on Saturday afternoon prior to my build week.

Did it look like it had spent a single day off road lol
It looks clean, but to fit the 37s it had some major trimming underneath the wheel well, it's not noticeable from the outside. This is setup as a desert pre-runner. 2WD with a air locker in the rear. He has the ADV extended fender setup like Ranger Raptor. It will be in SEMA show this year.

They didn't take any time to start pushing stuff back. You'd think you'd forecast out further and then surprise everyone with an email saying your build got done early.
I guess they figured incremental disappointments is better than one pleasant surprise.

Ford found it sitting in the back lot.
I guess they put it back there because it was missing the blue oval for the tailgate, and then forgot all about it until someone stumbled across it.

FYI - the Ford Vehicle Tracker has finally validated my Order Number and VIN. Although there isn't much new information on there, it's finally loading.

Also spoke with Ford this morning, my build date was pushed from 10/19 to 10/22, but the estimated delivery window was shortened a bit, from the week of 11/8 to 11/2. Taking it all with a grain of salt, but nice to see some development and responsiveness.

So weird you said that, my build date has been pushed to the end of the week (was 10/19 now 10/21) but the original delivery window of 11/2 to 11/8 has been moved back to 10/27 to 11/2. Maybe ford uses the same models that predict weather movements.

Maybe they could take some of the employees that keep entering data and then sends it out to us (which data is so unreliable) that moves back our builds, transfer those employees to another company position that actually does something that means something.
