You should have a window sticker link on that page. Does it pull a sticker? If so look a the blend date near the top middle. That is essentially the day they will begin to assemble. I have found "in production" really does not mean in production. Just in a different line at this point.
It worked, my blend date is 220181007.

The other site (VIN Maniacs) still doesn't show the sticker. I really thing the original post needs to be updated if this is to remain a stickied thread.

10/22 week is the first full week of 2019 builds. Based on that no one is getting a 19 until Nov. If you live near SE MI I suppose there is an outside shot at late Oct.
You have to wait for "OK to buy", which is 5 consecutive days of building without any screw ups. If problems exist, they keep repeating the day 5 cycles until they get it right. With changes to the 19's, this is more likely than the 17-18 change over. If your build gets pulled for a problem, it can sit for some time until the issue is sorted. Once it's out of the plant, the shippers take over and that usually is 2-3 weeks. I would say it would be a miracle if anyone gets a truck before mid November.

I put this in another section so there may be some overlap.

I found out what happened with my order. My dealer had 6 raptors on order, first build 10/29, and one each week after.

I was the only retail order, as 2 other retail orders fell through. For whatever reason Ford pulled the 5 stock orders and scheduled them, leaving mine not pulled.

I called my guy today and he’s calling the zone rep to see if he can put my build in place of another stock vehicle, as normally retail orders have preference and priority over the stock orders. None of the stock orders have recaros, but mine does. At the same time there was no issue with recaros when building the pre order. we got the OK to keep recaros as there would be no pending delays.

So now I’m seeing what they could do for me, and he is trying to swap my order in with a stock order. Fingers crossed and I hope they can work something out for me. I’ll hopefully hear back tomorrow with some good news

That should be no problem if they're not scheduled. The dealer just does a spec change .
