2023 MY Super Duty Order/Schedule/Build dates from Ford...

Yap, last update shows the railcar departed Leavenworth, WA around 1815 tonight.
Should be at the Seattle rail yard tomorrow sometime then. Waiting for the car hauler to pick it up. So you'll have to go all the way down to Chehalis to take delivery. That's a long drive but then again you'll get a good shake down run back north.

For sure but for a 350 Lariat Ultimate coming in at $81.5k x-plan it is worth it.
 
Ford chat gave me the railcar number. From there, you can call, in my example, CSX at 800-235-2352. Press 1 to get location, then enter the alpha characters for the car number. For example, the letter "T" is the 8 key, followed by the position of the letter on the key. In this case, "T" is the 1st position on the number 8. So for the letter "T" the numbers entered would be "81". Then enter the digits of the railcar number. The voice prompt will ask you if you need to enter another car or say done. It will then give you the last marked location of the car, the date and time of that location. I hope this helps.
Man... some of ya'll need to take up a job as an investigator! I can hardly find anyone at Ford that knows what each package really consists of.
 
Sweet almost my exact build.
I pulled mine up today and it said it's in production at top of page, although it doesn't say so on the middle of page where that's step 3 I think. Said window sticker is available but when I click link it's not there yet. Either way, it's getting closer!

Yeah, you should see your window sticker about 1 week before your build date.

No doubt. Mine is the 350 Lariat ultimate 7.3 at 82k otd with x-plan still waiting for a schedule date yet.

Maybe tomorrow or next day then. Supposed to be "week of the 8th". I'm excited either way. I've got 2 that I've used beyond their better days. One will remain for the jobs that promise to scratch and dent. Ready to have a pretty one for a bit
 
Does anyone know what time of day the Ford site updates? I am still showing "in production".

very cool. thanks!
 
Today (Thursday June 1) I woke up to NO email from Ford... so I bit the bullet, called my dealer and had them strip off the spray in liner, 5th wheel prep, splash guards and wheel liners from my order. I hate getting an incomplete truck from what I wanted, but now 7 months in from my order date I just want it to be built. I’ll complete it on my own.

I emailed Granger and asked about my order... I also asked if it would give me better odds if I removed the 5th wheel prep from my order. I want it but I don't necessarily NEED it. I don't have a 5th wheel or gooseneck but I wanted the option for possibilities in the future.
 
I'm in a jam because I ordered a boat bigger than what my Raptor will tow. It shows up in September. Ford had better have me my truck by then.

If I don't get a scheduling email today, I'm going to ask my dealer if they'll go to the Ford Zone Manager to see about getting the regional scheduler to give me a priority 1 or 2. 5th wheel prep hasn't been on the list of constraint items, so I'm not sure taking it off will make a difference. The issues that are constraints are items that seem to be standard for Platinum trims, so we can't remove them. The only thing that might help is the max recline seats, but there are so many Lariats being delivered with these that I don't see how this would prevent us from being scheduled. I'm still thinking that it is the scales and the hitch assist / cameras.

It looks like people who are getting scheduled with KR+ trims have late July dates. At this point, anyone now getting scheduled will likely have August dates and factoring transit time, they won't see their trucks until late September. Even if your order gets picked-up, you'll likely not have it in time to tow the boat.

Exactly. This is what they sent me. I'm not sure what all the "G" numbers mean. So the waiting continues, unfortunately. I did ask about dropping my order down to a 2 by the regional rep and they said no. So here I am...

Took about a week, maybe 10 days, for my window sticker to populate.

Build week generally starts on Monday so I would say June 8th is your scheduled to date and when you truck should actually begin production.
 
Yap, last update shows the railcar departed Leavenworth, WA around 1815 tonight. With any luck if will be offloaded tonight or tomorrow morning to await truck transport to the dealership. On a side note, I ordered my truck from a dealership in Chehalis since at the time I placed the order, all dealership around us were not accepting x-plan and charging mark-ups.
Good luck. My truck has been sitting in a rail yard waiting on a delivery truck since the 18th of May. The arrival date is showing 9 June now but originally it was supposed to arrive by May 29th. The dealership told me they were expecting it tomorrow (June 2). We shall see,,,,
