How long did it take people to get their VINs/factory months/weeks after ordering? Placed order 2/15/22 for a Ranger SuperCrew XLT, was told 4-6 months to get the truck, and should get VIN and build date from factory after a week or 2 but haven't heard anything yet.
Wondering what other people have experienced so far...
I ordered my SC FX4 in September, it got canceled in October and reordered on October 28th. Received build confirmation on 12/8 and Vin and build date on feb17th. Build week 3/28.

I hope it still has the mounting hardware preinstalled because that could also change. Just sayin' :) My Tremor is supposed to be built week of 3-7-22. Hope the date holds.
Probably will have the ball installed, if not i will put hardware on myself. Mine is a week after yours. Getting close now

Something else I noticed looking at pictures of 2022s… When did the manual override lock go away on the tailgate?

Just noticed this yesterday. Not on my 2022. Not really sad about it. The key is for extreme emergency, and can still unlock from inside.

As time goes on, looks like I may need to scavenge off a wrecked ranger to restore my soon to be new truck to it's original setup.

It's not a huge deal, but I assume now if the electric lock mechanism fails the access panel has to be removed to get it open. Correct?

The funny thing is the next gen 2023 that is being shown for ROW markets has the manual lock back on the tailgate.

I have had the same thought. Never have i had to buy stuff for a new vehicle that has been left off on purpose. Ridiculous really

That is correct...however it all depends on when FORD schedules the Ranger to be built. It may be sooner....but it could be later too. No rhyme or reason :crazy:
Here’s a good example of no rhyme or reason.
Ordered September 29th
Received order confirmation email same day
Got build schedule email on December 4 for February 14 build
Delayed to February 28th
Delayed to March 7

I got my build date about a week after the order was put in. Confirmed 2/8, scheduled on 2/17. Mostly depends on your configuration and when they're doing scheduling. Other dates in my sig.

If the dealer did not use your email, you won't hear a word until the dealer updates you. For me:

Ordered: 1/24
Ford Confirmation Email: 1/24
Ford Production Schedule Email: 2/17 (scheduled for 3/28)
Ford Delayed Production Schedule Email: 2/25 (new schedule for 4/4)

I had ordered a Catus Grey Scab back in July 2021 and didn't find out it was canceled till December of 2021, had visited the selling dealership and it took them about 45 min. to figure this out.

Reordered on 12/8/21
Received order confirmed the same day
VIN and build date received on 2/17/2022
Build date is 4/11/2022

Hopefully I have it by June!

I have been made aware of another possible decontenting that happened. The front fenders have moved from aluminum to steel. Anyone with a 2022 want to do the magnet test on the front fenders?
