From my contact regarding my build:

"I looked your Truck up, it says it was shipped at 2:16 pm, there is a batch and hold campaign for 2019 Raptors on it so it may still be on the property with the rest until they're okay to ship."
"If I hear they've been cleared and shipping I'll let ya know."

Asked about Tony's truck. Told him he was my brother in law):
"Your brother in law's truck was built today, it's waiting for mod center upgrades, and a couple out of stock parts."

So some items are out of stock which is causing delays.

Welp. Mine is probably in the same boat then. Suppose to be built between now and the end of the week.

Hopefully it shows we are shipped at the 6pm update on the Ford website. We will know in 35 minutes......

I believe the performance blue on the GT was called liquid blue and liquid blue was only used on the show cars and not available for purchase. Ford wanted to reproduce liquid blue for prod and they called this new color Ford Performance Blue. Liquid blue is and was very costly and thus not available in prod cars. Liquid blue show cars below:

You are correct!

No changes except it now says 10 days until delivery instead of 11. It still shows in production

Damn YOU!

When was your build day?

And I can't believe beadlocks wheels are not done on the line. So it goes to a diff facility where they remove the base wheels and dismount the tire and mount them to a beadlock wheel? Makes no sense.
I seriously doubt they do that. The base wheels most likely just head back to the assembly line and go on anther truck.

I never said that are not using the base wheels that they are removing. But why not put the beadlocks on during assembly to begin with? Taking one set off to put another set on just leaves rooms for damage.

There’s no way they put on stock wheels to take somewhere else for bead locks. They’d have to do that for every truck that someone orders upgraded wheels. No way

Contact confirmed that beadlocks are installed on the assembly line
Told you lol. Henry ford invented the assembly line, no way they’d have something so time consuming to do to every truck that has different wheels
