Built Status

[TVRangerSTX]

Yes no one's Ranger has past to "built" status. I have a similar experience if you have read my posts I won't repeat here. My dealer can as he says "look at the modem" and did when it rolled off the assembly line and had 1.9 miles on the odometer (three weeks ago), which I took to mean it went to a holding lot. I asked again yesterday and now the "modem" says it has 12.0 miles on the odometer (as of 2/23/24). I imagine it has moved to a staging area for transport, once it receives OKTB status. I also have heard it will be transported by train if the dealership is over 500 miles away so I guess mine will be on a train once it is transported whenever that is.

Again as always file this under for what it is worth.

If you got a spray in bedliner, that may explain the extra mileage. It's done by a contractor, Ground Effects, in Canada...https://www.gfxltd.com/

Hopefully I can calm a few nerves as I was in the same situation until a couple days ago. Basically the ford track website is garbage. I was scheduled for build week of Feb. 12. My truck went “into production” on the 9th of Feb and has been “in production” since then. I too was wondering what the hell was going on because I know the trucks are not on the assembly line for more than 2 days normally. My dealer reached out to me a couple days ago and told me my truck was built and ready to ship. He sent me a picture of what he could see on on his computer and the truck had a “plant trim line” date of 2/17 and an “actual production” date of 2/19. So basically it was “in production” for a week and a half before it was actually built and even though it has been built for several days now it is still showing in production. My advice would be to not put any credit into what Ford track says and ask your dealer to look it up in their system.

Thanks for your input, I can only speak for myself but I simply asked if anyone had gotten a built status. My nerves are very calm.
To elaborate a little more, my truck went into production status on the tracker exactly 7 days prior to my build day which was 02/15, which is exactly what my window sticker shows, also exactly what the dealers info shows.
So I too have contacted my dealer and was informed my truck was at what he called the “upfitter” getting the graphics and sprayed in bed liner.
My truck is built and sitting on RP7L waiting to be loaded on the railcar.(whenever that will be)
We are all what I would consider very knowledgeable about the process and stages.
Again my intention was only to see if anyone had gotten built on the tracker.
Thanks for your response

No actually I will get a drop in liner that I have had on my last two F150s

I got my Window Sticker, and it says it is in Production. So we will see.

I have that same number on my Window Sticker. RP7L and then it says RAIL. I'm afraid you're going to have to wait until they finish mine, to get yours loaded.

Here's my "In Production" screeners

The company the does Ranger spray in bed liner is connected to the back parking lot of the Plant. They don’t go to Canada.

Ok I stand corrected...I heard Ground Effects did some options & checked their website...they do have other plants in MI. Makes sense to have the subcontractors close-by.

Similarly when I visited the Rouge steel plant quite frequently for my job, I'd see let's say "older gentlemen" in fluorescent yellow vests, driving new F150s out the gate and around Miller & Rotunda, I assume to test drive or get them to a lot nearby. I tried to bribe one if them to "loan" me his Raptor, but he shook his head NO!

Let's hope that all the "built" rangers that still show "in production" are being held for a mass release e.g.- OKTB. In hopes of a FORD Ranger Sales event, whereupon they provide a low credit rate and some good incentives to buy.

First-time new member here. A bit late to the game, but happy nonetheless. Secured an available RR allocation with no ADM yesterday at a dealer about 3 hours away. Dealer ordered in August '23. Shows in production. Production date on window sticker 2/22 with blend date shown as 2/29 (for what it's worth). Now the wait begins. Blue color with Raptor Graphics. Declined dealer paint protection, interior fabric protection add-ons and extended warranty, which would have added around $3K.

Mine have populated, too.

My truck is still in Production status (since mid Jan). My dealer claims it is on the truck. This was his statement 2 weeks ago. So either there is a LOT of traffic or he's smoking crack.

They don't know what's going on. Some big secrecy between MAP and Ford

For people who have received updates on their order, what date did you put your orders in/what is your order number? Not sure how much that matters when determining the timeline of my delivery in the grand scheme of things but it seems to make sense in my head
