Wonder if you called marketing, what would they tell you!
FYI 2022 Updated Production Schedule
- OP 🔹 22F250
- Start date
Yep - and his does not show Built yet on the tracker. Our trucks were produced 6 days before his - so they should be on the way! Mine shows it was sent off site on 12/1 then nothing. I just have the spray in, retractable cover and two wheel liners. Those should all take no longer than half a day, yet the VVR has nothing past last Wednesday.

They likely would ask me to stop calling, at this point. lol I have learned from Ford Marketing that you have a slightly different take each time you call.
You would think the dealers would be as irritated about this as us. They have to plan for PDI and winch installs. I would be pissed if I got three truck loads out of the blue and could not get them all prepped and readied for sale due to poor tracking. I don't know, but I'd be on the horn.

I agree - having seen behind the curtain, they have a little bit more information that we the consumer have, but several do not know how to (or don't care to) access it. However, as you stated, during this climate - I too would think more attention would be spent on this by the dealer - as their lots are a wee bit empty.
Says 7dec. Regardless, any day now
Dealer sent me a shot of the VVR today. It also says “Micro Chip At Plant On Hold.” I think the only thing I needed from off-site was the 5th wheel prep.
Did someone drop a tray of chips? WTH
I guess I don't think that is accurate.
Before the trackers all crapped out plenty of trucks produced Thanksgiving week shipped.
Yeah, now I wish I had put the time in to get the inside track through Blue Oval. UGH!
@Big_Ed do you know anything about chip shortages? I don't buy it, but who knows.
I'm heading over for a dealer visit tomorrow.
For about $40 you can join eaa.org and once a member you can get your x-plan pin right away. I did this last summer and was all set to order through my local dealer until the sales manager decided they weren’t going to honor x-plan any longer. Ended up ordering with Granger. Waiting on commodities…Truck arrived today!!
Went to the dealer to get it and through the paperwork process, discovered that my company's X-Plan PIN is not longer valid as during the time it took to get the truck, my company spun out of the parent company. Doh!!
Had to walk away with no truck until I can get the F Shareholder pin. Luckily I happen to buy some shares about 6 months ago
Any other ways to get a legit x-plan PIN on super short notice?
Looks like Ford changed the API. Mach-E is down for good.
Makes sense that it hasn’t worked then haLooks like Ford changed the API. Mach-E is down for good.

I wonder if this means the Public SD Tracker will be down for good as well - showing the date sent to plant, shipped, built, etc.
Just got a call my truck is in Benicia and waiting to be transported to the dealer. As luck would have it I am leaving for Vail on Thursday for 6 days. So I should have my truck waiting for me when I get back. Super excited! Order date was 10-5-21.
I called and albeit I didn't get the "chip" story some of the others are getting, I did get the same old song and dance of "we show your truck in production and that's all we can see on our end, you should speak to your dealer for more information." Yeah, I know it is in production, but what stage of production? Was supposed to have been the week of the 29th and then was told a build date of 12/3 and then everything crashed and no answers from anyone as of yetThey likely would ask me to stop calling, at this point. lol I have learned from Ford Marketing that you have a slightly different take each time you call.
Welcome
my pickup has been in production since 11/24, with an estimated delivery to dealer 12/21. Today i noticed that the estimated delivery changed to 12/31. It has never been confirmed built on the tracker yet. This is starting to get old
I don’t know if this will help or hurt you, but here is my take on your situation. At the time of the crash/change, ford was building the trucks anywhere from 4-12 days after the “scheduled build date”. Accessories can take a few days to a week before it hits the road and is in transit. If we take the average timeframe scenario for your truck, I’m guessing your truck will ship out either the later part of next week or possibly the first part of the week of Christmas. I haven’t been following the dates the plant will be closed for the holidays, but hopefully yours hits the road before the break.I called and albeit I didn't get the "chip" story some of the others are getting, I did get the same old song and dance of "we show your truck in production and that's all we can see on our end, you should speak to your dealer for more information."
