So did your truck really ship?

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.

I don't think so. I believe trucks will start shipping on Monday. Hopefully it'll take 3 weeks of production before they're shipped just like what happened for the 2018's. I see that the tracker shows a date under 'In Production' of 11/7/18. My contact will let me know when they start shipping.

Well hopefully it is sitting on a trailer since he says it shows shipped even though it could still be on the lot. That is a lot better than parts out of stock, engine rebuild, or they have identified an issue will all Raptors. There was a post of Blue Oval yesterday that FP told a new mustang owner that they were working on a possible engine issue on his Mustang and his shipping was delayed.

I just found out yesterday that the Mustang GT that I ordered is sitting at the assembly plant for inspection and possible repair due to engine issues. I would rather my car be repaired (if needed) at the assembly plant versus having my motor blow a few months after getting it and have a dealership fix it. I don't believe a dealership would have the same standards as the plant does.

This is not Ford's first rodeo. They do this every year with every model. I would imagine the tracker numbers are pretty accurate and would tend to be on the conservative side. They would generate a lot of upset customers if they continually missed dates.

My dealer has hedged on the conservative side of that and said it would be the next week - Site shows 11/18 (FP says the 12th-18th) which is a Sunday, he said it will ready the first part of the week of the 19th. All car dealers are closed on Sunday in Texas - stupid blue laws. They are tinting the windows and spraying a bed liner, but he said they would do that the day of delivery and I would be good to go the next day. Not their first rodeo either.

I'm at the point where I know it's not coming very early. I did block my calendar next Friday afternoon, just in case, but will be fine if I pick it up on the 19th or 20th.

My tracking still shows delivery on the 18th, but it is being delivered to Vegas, and it doesn't show shipped yet. I am beginning to wonder.
Yours can't be the only one going to Vegas. I doubt the truck would be making a lot of stops on the way. If it ships on Monday, I would imagine the truck would be there Wednesday or Thursday.

My window sticker still shows 11/02 on the bottom. The tracking site still shows delivery on the 18th.6026e371e52323a5f938cfc2cabada82.jpg

The bottom of my window sticker was showing 11/1/2018 for a few days and this morning it is showing 11/8/2018. Prob means nothing.

Mine always updates a few hour after yours. Probably means nothing, but I read somewhere a change triggers the date change. Don't remember where and no idea if it was true. Maybe it means it is on a trailer or has left, or maybe it is just a weekly system update.

Mine is going by rail to Vegas. I have no idea how long that takes. But if it ships on Monday, I would say there is a reasonable chance it will get there by the next weekend. I can only hope. I don't get back there until the 18th anyway, but I would like it early the next week.
