Ford updated the order tracker, no more Built date?

[alrashid2]

Hey guys. Went to check my order tracker as my Ranger was scheduled to be In Production next week.

Welp, the tracker updated completely and reads totally different now! I also was required to log in to get any meaningful data.

Attached a screenshot. Looks like no more Built date on the pizza tracker. But oddly enough, it appears as though my truck is already built?!

What's concerning though is, despite it appearing to be built a week early, my delivery estimate is September... 8 weeks away? I hope that's not accurate...

Curious what you guys think or if anyone has more info. Thanks!

Wow, that's really interesting. I tried to look at mine, and I can't pull it up anymore - it shipped on 6/14 and arrived at the dealer overnight on 6/29. My ETA fluctuated during that time from 7/12-7/18, to 7/4-7/10, and finally arrived early after spending a few days in a rail yard.

I'm a bit further from the plant from you, based on your location in your profile. My guess is you'll have it well before September, but this is the part where you can really only get updates from your salesman. Hope he's friendly!

Side note: you're going to absolutely love the color in person if you've never seen it in real life. I didn't get to see any Rangers in Marsh Gray before ordering, but wow, it really pops on this truck.

Edit to add, since I didn't articulate all my thoughts: I wonder if it is shipping today, and this is similar to when the old tracker would flip back to Order Confirmed on the day it loads on the train.

Thanks for the response brother! No idea what's happening but I did see that my Blend Date is July 9th based on my window sticker. Likewise, not seeing all the modules yet in the motorcraft search. Will report back though!

So stoked for the Marsh Gray! Ive only seen it for 10 seconds in person once but I adored it

Ah, that does change things. Once you get a blend date, I don't think that changes. Mine showed In Production once my sticker was available, and that was the week before the build date.

I understand that everyone wants to know when their new truck will arrive at the dealer, when it is being built at the plant, etc. I did the same thing many times, plus I had inside help and info from fellow Ford employees. In all honesty though, you will get it when you get it and you have no control over it. This is the world we live in since the Covid crap and the people in public office who tried to destroy our country. Happy 250 America, stay strong and free!

Very true brother. I did the same thing when I got my first suppressor: refreshed the email 10 times a day waiting for that approval from the ATF boys
