I've read here that the Tracker only updates once a day, but I can confirm that is NOT the case.

My truck went into production on 4/11/19 with a blend date of 4/18.

The tracker kept saying in production even though my FordPass allowed activation yesterday morning. Because of the FordPass, I've been checking the Tracker every couple of hours since yesterday and just now, it updated to a check mark and date of 4/23/2019 on the In Production status of the Tracker. And its in Awaiting Shipment.

So I hate to have everyone check the tracker more than once a day, but it doesn't only change once a day anymore.
I noticed status changes can occur at any time, but the "days to delivery" only seem to update once a day at 8pm ET. I think if no other updates occur, that happens at 8PM ET.

The blend date is the date it all "comes together" (final assembly). The date at the bottom will change each time your truck has a major status change (in production, building, waiting for shipment, etc). At least that is what it appears like.

Do you know how to read the blend #?
Looks like the small # 320190501 would mean May 1st.
Don't know what the 3 is or the large sized #s on either side..

It is May 1st. (2019 05 01) Don't know what the other numbers mean, though.

Actually, I think the 4 numbers AFTER the blend date are the sequence number for that date (I think). For example mine was 320190316 0143, so mine was in sequence 143 on that date - but I think it might not be the actual number - like mine wasn't the 143rd truck down the line on that date - I think it is just a sequence number that rolls back to 0001 when it gets to 9999. But I'm not positive about that.

Thanks Redland and Floyd,I though that was how it works.It looks like the dealer was correct about truck coming in under 2 months. Thanks again,Bret

How does anyone actually check if the train has left? Is there an app? Mine's in transit as of two days ago.

Our tracker was true all the way thru with del date 4.28 and we picked up today. For those in the wait IT IS WORTH IT!!!
Hang in there all!! And it is still helpful to know that VIN that we all have committed to memory to get your insurance set up! :clap:

Funny, but my "Other car is a Porsche" and when i read the title of this Thread is thought, " Who the heck would take their Ranger to the Track?"
