What's with the shipping dates constantly changing?

[pyates999]

My build date was 3/12/2024, I called Ford customer service multiple times & received multiple dates pertaining to shipping. The morning of April 19th 2024 I contacted Ford & was told that they had no idea when it would ship. Later that afternoon about 5 hours later my dealer called & said that my truck had arrived. Also, the tracker didn't update to shipped & dealer prep until I had it at home for two days. So, don't put too much faith in what Ford tells you or what the tracker says. I don't know what the processes are but it will happen eventually, at their discretion on their terms, be patient & enjoy the ride. The only thing that I do know for sure though is that I can promise you that in the end, it's well worth the wait!!

I have the same production date as you and am getting the same error. Looks like the system is having issues or being updated.

Mine is doing the same thing now. For the past 6 hours

same. The dealer actually told me it was in transit Tuesday. Tracker updated to built Wednesday at 2am with an estimated delivery within 12 hours that estimate was pushed back 2 weeks.

and now i have the same error as the rest of you. Interesting we will see what happens

Keep us posted

Received a text this morning saying my truck had shipped! Tracker is now working and shows the original delivery date of later this month.

that is good news! Thanks for sharing. My build date is 3/11 and estimate was pushed back 2 weeks. That gives me hope that the original date might still be accurate

Not a Ford, but when I ordered a Wrangler, Jeep's order tracker showed it shipped on a Friday and the dealer called me Monday morning wanting to know when I could come in and pick it up. Only a short distance from Toledo to Maryland though - rail connections are fast to the metro DC / Baltimore area.

When I ordered my '20 Super Duty the tracker kept changing my shipping date and never showed shipped status. Went from awaiting shipping, to arrived at dealership.

I know that the primary car hauling trucking company, Jack Cooper, that both Ford and GM has used for decades recently had their contract cancelled by both Ford and GM a few months ago. And Jack Cooper abruptly shut down. I would guess that this may affect the shipping

This is a good point. It was done in late Jan. and early Feb. I would presume that they planned for transition to another carrier(s), else they would have a significant pile up of inventory before now. The Wayne County Jack Cooper plant closed early last month. I don't know if Cooper's transit of vehicles would have ended overnight though. Hmm.

My Lariat’s blend date is Mar 21, and I have spray in liner, running boards, and tonneau, so will be interesting to see when it gets delivered. Good thing I am not in a bug hurry . . . [Jeopardy Theme song inserted here] . . .

Anyone seeing any movement this last week. No updates for a week on mine.

Mine went back to order confirmed yesterday and I no longer have a ETA for delivery

No movement on mine since last week either. Built date is 3/11 no other updates.
