That is why I made the post as I have an early order as well and frustrated then see info that contradicts what I already know from being in the plants.
I am often at Ford and started to ask some Management friends. I am in another nearby facility; some ranger stuff is made here. A friend manager called over to MAP and was told production was started and units were shipping. These guys see everything built, however that gave little details.
So, we accessed the production computers. This will give every order number and a list of every part that is on hand. It will also show if a VIN is issued that means all the parts are on hand and if it has a build date. It does not however distinguish any flavors of the builds. It will give dealer and customer name if it is retail.
It will also show recent builds ( not sure how far back) and what is to be on the line over the next couple of weeks. This is all that I know at the moment but will be checking up next month when I am back in the plant.
I have many of the same questions and that is what brought me here as well. Seeing what is here and what I know figured I would add what I knew.
