I’ve slipped to 12/6 with a 2021; I believe some have slipped to 12/13 with 2021 orders. Pretty sure you will get a 2021.
And will be last year's model when I get it. But, that's a pandemic year; the boundaries are fluid.

Build date of 11/29, and I was able to pull up the window sticker this morning, so it's finally about to happen! Original build date was 10/25, then 11/08, 11/22, and finally 11/29.
Rapid Red Premium, space grey interior, standard range RWD.

Originally a member of the 11/8 build gang thread, but I guess I officially belong here now ...

It's happening!?!

I got an email last night (11/23) from Ford saying "The production date for my vehicle has changed", and that "Your vehicle is now scheduled to be built the week of November 29, 2021 ". This aligns with the info I have been getting from the dealer. This is the first email I had gotten from Ford since one on 10/25 saying I was scheduled for the week of 11/8.

AND the "Track My Order" button on the email works AND I can view the window sticker!

Original order placed on my behalf by the dealer on 6/12/21.

My window stick also showed up this morning. I desperately need it by year end, but I guess the chances are slim

My dealer (Maryland) was saying there was some luck involved in delivery times, having to do with how the train/boat is loaded. So if you're first on the train, you have wait for other vehicles to be produced to fill it up. No idea if that's true.

I read somewhere that somebody got theirs delivered to Maine in 3 weeks, so there's hope.

There's probably some other threads that discuss the delivery process, so I'll be looking for those next!

Originally a member of the 11/8 build thread, but now switched to 11/29.

Received my updated build date email from Ford last night. And my window sticker showed up this morning! This must be a good thing, right? Good news for the holidays?!!!

Hope so! How do we know if it's happening? It says: Your 2021 Mache Premium is "In Production", but I don't believe it. :) How do you double-check?!

Originally an 11/08 build date, pushed to 11/15 then again to 11/22. However no update showing beyond stating it's In Production on the status bar on top and Scheduled for Production week of 11/22 on the order status below, no window sticker.
I'm assuming it's still not built yet and I'm now 11/29 at this point.
Reserved/Ordered 05/15/2021, Grabber Blue GTPE.

I just got an email from my dealer/salesperson. It had a VIN, an order date and a build date.
It says "status - sent to plant"
"primary status - in production" and the status date is 11/23 6 am est.

I don't know what that means, but it sounds good.
