A quick question on the production process.  I have a date (21 March) under In Production on the tracker. I know it needs to go across the street for mud flaps, wheel well liners, and the bed step.  Does that happen before or after I see a date under Built on my tracker? 
Thanks,

Joe 

From what I've heard and understand it shows "built" when ford is done with their part.  Mine showed built while it was waiting to have the fifth wheel prep installed(approx. 1 week).  It makes no since to me why they would call it built when it's not finished.   I could be wrong I'm learning as I go with this whole ordering, building and shipping process.

My tracker did the same thing

Anyone buy from an IL area dealer? Just wondering how long it took from being built to get trucked up there.

The wait is finally over.  I will be picking up my F350 7.3L SRW Lariat tomorrow. The only commodity restriction I ordered is the 5th wheel prep.  Here is the timeline.

 

ordered 11/12/21 received confirmation email the same day.  
Received production schedule email on 1/13/22, scheduled for week of 2/28/22.

no pushbacks.

Built on 3/4/22

Shipped on  3/11/22 (via truck)

Delivered to dealer 3/14/22

UPDATE: I picked up my truck last week.  With all the talk about the bad dealers not honoring the price protection I was a little worried.  I have to say my dealer was great!  He told me about the price protection (two increases since I ordered) and gave me the price at time of order.  He honored my X-Plan price.  He gave me my PCO that expired Jan 1.  They also filled it up with gas.  Thats a big one right now!  LOL  There are still honest and good dealerships out there.  Thanks to Dorrance Ford in Galesburg MI!  GREAT JOB!

That's great to hear! I had the same experience with my dealer. No issues with price protection, honored our agreed upon price when I ordered, and also honored my PCO that I had when I ordered. Great experience all the way around and glad you had the same!

Has anyone else been told by their dealer they are unable to bump priority from anything less than 19? My dealer told me this morning that it’s out of their hands and it’s completely up to Ford corporate. I mentioned they should have the ability to bump it to a 10, but he circled back to the same talking points. I couldn’t get any details on how many SD orders they have either as this wasn’t easily accessible.

 

Any thoughts or suggestions? I’m about 4.5 months in, so jumping to another dealership isn’t ideal. 

 

Unfortunately, you're doing business with a dealership that doesn't care, can't be bothered to do their job, etc. They most certainly can at least contact their Ford Zone Manager and request that your priority code be changed. Yes, there are time that Ford will reassign priority codes without a Dealer's request, but it's your Dealer's job to monitor and manage their USOB (Unscheduled Order Bank) and act as an advocate for their customers!

FYI... Ford's had a "Full Tank of Fuel" program for new vehicles for many years and reimburses the dealership based on the fuel capacity less the plant fill.

Are they building Platinums?  Ordered my F450 in April 2021.  Haven’t heard a thing!!!

Man, I wish I had your kind of scheduling.  I ordered 8 days before you and havent heard a peep other than the "update about delays" email that I got last Thursday.  

 

Seems like those with the 7.3 Lariat Ultimates are getting through a lot quicker than Platinums and the 6.7.  Maybe I am wrong.

I've been thinking the same. Ordered a 7.3 platty Nov-26th.. Only commodity issue is the fifth wheel prep. But I am up in Canada and we seem to get things much slower!

That’s awesome!!! Hopefully my truck gets delivered soon, my build date was the same as yours, I also have the fifth wheel prep and safe.  Mine is coming by rail….

My order went in production earlier this week and I have a sticker. No date in the tracker yet, hope it moves fast. 

[bishoppl]

I believe I have read every page since 1/2/22. I dont see any news on the production of the 350 Limited. Has anyone seen one? I ordered 11/2/21. I received an email last week that said it has been pushed. Thank you.

My F250 still shows "In Production" one week later,  but I now have Module Build Data showing.  Another step forward!

I waited almost 8 months to get scheduled with a F-450 KRU.

 

Wouldn't agree that it takes longer in Canada, as my Canadian dealer had 24 SD's scheduled last week, and had at least 40 scheduled already this year, but still has around 70 in the USOB. The 5th wheel prep is often noted as a commodity restraint, but they have lots of others that were never published. At present Ford are experiencing delays with 37 suppliers.

That's good to hear that so many were scheduled last week. Hopefully you get your new truck soon. I am hoping it is in time for camping season this year.

Well friends, I got good news today from my dealer, my truck is already on a rail car heading my way.  I was blown away; it was built yesterday and today it was loaded on a rail car and I have the car number.  CSX Transportation, TTGX710739.  Now more anticipation to keep up with transit, lol.  How have you guys tracked CSX train cars in the past?
