Anybody else have an In Production / Blend Date over the last week?

[alrashid2]

Hey guys, curious if anyone else out there had their truck go In Production recently, or had a recent blend date.

Mine went In Production 02 July, Blend Date was 09 July, and modules popped on the As Built tracker on 11 July. A week past my blend date, and no further updates... also no Tear Tag.

I did get the Spray In Bed Liner which I know adds some time between Blend Date and Built status, but I figured a week later I'd get some sort of update, whether that was Tear Tag or something on the pizza tracker.

Curious if any of you are in the same boat? Thanks all!

My blend date was July 9. With bed liner. It shows as "shipped" and arriving in July.

Nice thanks for responding!

So it's strange man, Ford seems to be using 2 different trackers that show 2 different things.

That screenshot is of the new tracker that is really misleading. My Blend Date was July 9 but the new tracker showed my truck as Produced a week before which obviously wasn't true...

You can still access the old tracker. Try this out - I bet it still shows your truck as In Production and not shipped yet, sadly...

I actually got a call from the Ford dealer on Monday. They said their tracker shows it as shipped as well.

Oh well that's promising! Maybe the old tracker is actually the incorrect one then?

I was assuming mine hadn't shipped yet as my Tear Tag hadn't populated yet on the as built page. Curious has yours yet?

Don't know what that means or how to access the tear tag. If I use the app on my phone, it looks like yours, in production. If I use the link Ford emailed to me, it shows built and shipped.

Nice man

If you're curious to check, the As Built is basically a way to check if your trucks computer is "alive".

If you type in your vin here, there should be a ton of modules populated at the bottom of the page, and I'm told if the computer is released from QC then the Tear Tag at the top has a number there (mine is still blank)

That's awesome man! Funny, I couldn't help but notice you ordered after me, went into production after me, and yours says July delivery estimate while mine says Sep

No idea what's holding mine up!

The waiting game is tough. See if you can find the link Ford sent you when they first gave you a production estimate. My info looks very different with that link than if I use the link straight from Ford website.

Welp, I never got an email but my Ranger is showing as Built this morning, as of yesterday July 20th!

Funny enough, the order tracker page says Last Updated 07/18/2026 and I had checked yesterday and it had not said built yet... but fine with me!

Still no Tear Tag though.

Even weirder, my order now has a delivery estimate showing like others get, and it shows July 27 to Aug 02... highly doubt it'd ship from MI to PA that quickly?

I think yours and mine might be sitting together. My blend date was 7/6/26. One tracker also says in production. Last updated 7/8 and the other one says ready to ship with delivery of September. I went to the dealer last week and have them check on their end. Turns out its on hold with a release date of 9/30.

Sorry I haven't updated here. Sorry to share better news than you got, but my truck showed as built on 7/20 and shipped on 7/21, with an estimated delivery of 8/8.

I'm sorry yours is on hold... did they say way? Hopefully just got picked for a QC check? And if that's the case, I know the waiting sucks, but at least you'll know yours got looked over extra carefully!

That's great. I'm happy for you.

The inventory manager checked on mine and said there was no hold reason showing. QC would be the best case I guess. But when I do finally receive it I'll be checking very closely for paint corrections or blemishes. The dealer tried selling me another truck that they had on the lot and that thing had multiple issues. Its got me a little scarred.
