It's scheduled to be built the 15th. It was scheduled to the week of the 11th before the day was finalized, that might be where you got that number.

Ok
Assuming you are referring to the current month, yes Monday Nov. 11 is Veterans Day in the United States.

I got my window sticker too. Blend date Wed 11/13. Perfect. I hope it only takes 2 weeks to get to St Paul. Last one I ordered was built there!

So just out of curiosity, if the website says it’s in production, how long until it’s actually started? How long does it take to be built on the line?
Mine’s finally changed to in production, but the blend date was the 14th anyway...

The tracking site will say "in production" when it get released to the plant I believe. The actual final assembly only takes a day. If the blend date is the 14th, that should be the date it rolls down the line.
My Blend date was 3/16, the tracking site showed "In Production" on 3/8 - it was built on 3/16 but didn't show "Awaiting shipment" until 3/19 (the day it showed as "produced") - here is the detail from the Ford system that Pioneer74 gave me at that time:
One tip - if you want to confirm it is "alive" on the 15th - fire up the FordPass app on your phone and put your VIN in and see if it prompts you to accept the prompt on the dash. If it does, you will know it has been built. I did that, however it seems to have kind of messed something up - when I got it, I ended up having to do a system reset on the Sync3 system before I could set it all up. Just just be aware that doing that might cause some minor issues at delivery time.

Just be prepared for lots of "waiting" time when shipping occurs - here is a bit more - it sat at the rail yard for almost a week (3/23-3/29), not moving at all:
It took 21 days to get from the plant to Portland, OR and almost half that time was just sitting and waiting. Just to prepare you. Mine finally arrived at the dealer on 4/12. Since you are in Nevada, I would assume the transit time would be similar.
If you really want to "geek out", I created this map showing its progress from the plant the dealer:

@rangerdanger created one for someone else earlier in the year, and thanks to @Pioneer74, he gave me the complete printout of the whole journey which was really interesting to me. Maybe more info than you wanted....

The wait time is to be expected, the dealer told me to plan on 4 weeks once it starts shipment. For some reason they ship to San Francisco and then truck it back East over the Sierras instead of just dropping them at the rail yard in Reno. Weather slows everything down this time of year for the Sierras, it may sit for a week just for that apparently.Just be prepared for lots of "waiting" time when shipping occurs - here is a bit more - it sat at the rail yard for almost a week (3/23-3/29), not moving at all:

It is really hard to wait, but having reasonable expectations is important. If you figure 4 weeks and it arrives faster than that you will be happy. If they told you 2 weeks and it took 4, you wouldn't be a happy camper.
For me, the shipping part was somewhat easier than waiting for it to be built. Somehow it was easier knowing it was built and on its way to me. Hard to believe I ordered mine almost a year ago now.
