was your production date pushed back from a prior date?

Also, I have brackets and widgets ready to be installed, and I am currently in negotiations with the checkbook holder on a diamondback bed cover. LOL
No, has always been 11/14.
It is amazing how much NEEDS to be added to a $40K+ vehicle.

its magic.

I wonder how they made that work . . . LOL

realistically, I imagine it is because of all the aero they removed to improve approach angles . . .
It's the Azure Gray

So my sticker was created today, the blend date is 11/14 (chassis meets body)

BTW that 904/1064 is what number my vehicle is in the lineup that week...

So I am not the last truck, but I'm not the first truck . . . and I am probably far enough along that it won't right after lunch when everyone is tired. LOL

I watched that video....he said 1064 is the number of vehicles that will go down the line that day (not week) and yours will be number 904 that day.

I'm a little confused now.....yours is In Production, but the blend date is still 11/14 which according to the video is the date your truck will be built. Do I have that right?

I was a little fuzzy about the 1064 being day or week . . . because according to some videos it takes 2-3 days for a vehicle to be built, but I thought I had seen elsewhere that it takes a day to build . . .

I reached out to a buddy of mine who works at ford engineering to see if he can find anything else out about the build.

The windows sticker date in the bottom middle shows today... also, stickers are 7-10 days before a build and today is 10 days out...

I'd just like to gently remind you all that I was one of the first people here with a confirmed order (8/4) but wasn't originally scheduled to be built until 11/14 and then you all stole my build date.

Just got off of chat with Ford customer service and the production date is still scheduled for 11/21.

I am really excited for the rest of you though, and happy to see that things are finally starting to move forward on 2023 production. It's good news for me, too. Plus, I really want to see ANY Ranger in AGM.

I'd like to gently remind you that . . . well, dang, that stinks.

It really is interesting how these things are gtting scheduled... Wonder if it has more to do with dealer allotments for some of us who ordered early on, than anything else...

Any chance you could call your dealer and ask if they have other rangers on order in front of yours?

I'm assuming it's probably just luck of the draw. If I actually get put into production on 11/21 then I suppose I don't have much to complain about with me only being a week behind. Besides, I heard the first week of production is always the worst or something. #madeUpFacts

I can't control it. Certain things cause certain songs to pop in my head. Even songs I haven't heard in years.

Another Tricky Day
Song by The Who

You can't always get it
When you really want it
You can't always get it at all
Just because there's space
In your life it's a waste
To spend your time why don't you wait for the call
We all get it in the end
(Just gotta get used to it)
We go down and we come up again
(Just gotta get used to it)
You irritate me my friend
(This is no social crisis)
This is you having fun
(No crisis)
Getting burned by the sun
(This is true)
This is no social crisis
Just another tricky day for you
You can always get higher
Just because you aspire
You could expire even knowing.
Don't push the hands
Just hang on to the band
You can dance while your knowledge is growing
You can't expect to never cry
(Patience is priceless)
Not when you try to fly so high
(Just stay on that line)
Rock and roll will never die
(This is no social crisis)
Another tricky day
Another gently nagging pain
What the papers say
Just seems to bring down heavier rain
The world seems in a spiral
Life seems such a worthless title
But break out and start a fire y'all
It's all here on the vinyl
(No crisis)
You can't always get it
When you really want it
You can't always get it at all
Just because there's space
In your life it's a waste
To spend your time why don't you wait for the call
Gotta get used to waiting
(Just gotta get used to it)
You know how the ice is
(Just gotta get used to it)
It's thin where you're skating
(This is no social crisis)
Just another tricky day for you fella
