My truck is in a similar spot. In production on 9/29 but not confirmed built yet. Supposedly is going to be delivered to the dealership by 11/5. We'll see.

At this point I feel like a broken record.
Mine has been awaiting shipment since 08/25. As of Monday it will be 2 months.
It was scheduled to arrive at the dealer between 10/14 and 10/20.
I don’t know what’s going on but to add to this, my wife’s Tesla’s delivery has been pushed out as well (and we live 45 minutes away from the factory).
This is terrible I feel for you guys. How does this happen if supposedly a truck won’t go into production until parts are allocated???

I was a June order with an allocation and only received a build week last week for Nov 15. My suspicion is that it will sit in chip limbo and I won’t receive it until ‘22. I actually asked to place a new order for a ‘22 37 package with allocation and let the dealer have this one but the dealer wouldn’t have it. I think I have a leg to stand on if I don’t take delivery of a ‘21 until ‘22...?

I am in the exact same boat as you, but I try to sell to myself that a 21 might have some value being a limited production at best. The more I think about the 21 delivery issues you have to ask what a 22 delivery time line will be like and quality of fit and finish? i keep hoping we have gotten over the hump and production will finally get back on line and they catch up, doubt it!

On the tracker, mine has a built date, but also continues to show In Production. I would think it should go to Awaiting Shipment once the build is complete.

Also, my estimated delivery went from 11/13 to TBD.

I dont know if anyone at Ford even knows what they are doing. My truck went to “In Production” on 8/11 with a Blend date of 8/19. Confirmed with Ford Performance chat that it was built on 8/21. Did not change to “Built” status on the tracker until 9/18, but that box is still not checked. I am now on my third ETA (9/24, 10/13, 10/25) and it still hasn’t shipped yet so doubt it will make it from Dearborn, Michigan to Houston, Texas by Monday the 25th.

I was in production the 11th, updated yesterday to sort of say it was built. Dealer said there was a slight chip hold and that my truck was cleared to ship, but that it just hadnt yet.

The tracker has been all sorts of buggy, from being behind showing status, to not showing anything at all, to now my window sticker is unavailable.

Now estimated delivery changed from 11/15 to 11/6, we'll see how accurate it is with getting rail transport to CO

Took both my Raptor, Bronco, and Friends Bronco 11-13 days from "Shipped" to get to our dealer in Temple TX.

Now we are the furthest south in the zone for Dallas deliveries and the dealer waits for a full truckload to get sent down. So there could be a day or two delay waiting in Dallas for us. You being in Houston I imagine it goes to the rail yard there
