Even better - our tracking app shows a production date

My Mach Drop Receipt date is 2020-10-06, my build date was scheduled for Monday the 4th. As of Wed afternoon the GM at my dealer said it was still "sent to plant" (since 12-18). Today still no change. Maybe it will be done soon since others scheduled for that day are built...

Same with my RR FE mach Drop - no update other than sent to plant - actual build date was 1/6

The ramp number is not for truckers but the off loading from train - if my recollection is right from this discussion last few months. Truckers may have something else pointing them to dealer location.

Yes. We are both saying the same thing....just in different ways.
The ramp code instructs the driver who is unloading the auto rack where to park the vehicle. The truck driver loads up all the vehicles in that section because their final destination points are all in the same area or route.

The dealer names are printed in the lower left section of the window sticker. The vehicles are usually loaded out of order because the union workers just want to get the cars loaded and on their way. The truck driver usually unloads all the cars later and reorganizes them for his drop points. They usually do it at the first dealership is there is room to work.

For those of you produced, did you get an email and does your ford.shop tracker, page five of Tracker thread, also show produced?

I received an eMail when my car was shipped, not produced. My experience has been that the data on shop.ford.com is batched daily and lags up to 24 hours whereas the vehicle dashboard on the reservation system on www.ford.com updates more frequently and seems to generally be a little more current. I say that because I knew the car was shipped on the dashboard before I got the eMail. shop.ford.com seems to be using a slightly different interpretation. My car was finished on 12/18 and shipped on 1/5. You can see how the Ford websites represent this differently as of this moment:

Your dates are the same as mine, except the build date (still blank). Will be refreshing throughout the day.

Oh, and my dealer told me this AM that they have no way to tell build status. Makes me glad to have this forum!

Your dealer is either lying so you won’t ask or ignorant. Ask to speak with the inventory manager.

I stopped by the dealer to take a look at the Bronco Sport I ordered and got delivered yesterday. Not buying it but wanted to see it. The dealer apologized for letting others test drive the vehicle already - something I did not care about for that vehicle but dont want to see happen with the MME.

I asked about the MME FE Mach drop status and he printed his screens - shows no movement at the plant other than sent to plant. But has a delivery date estimated of Feb 8. Hoping it will hold that date.

I’ll be slightly devastated if my MME gets any first drives before my own. I think I’ve already impressed on my dealer that I’m very particular based on my requests (including but not limited too no badging, no front plate, no detailing...)

They have been pretty responsive, so I am going to go with "unknowingly ignorant". Agreed that I could raise it up, but figure I will find out soon enough via the tracking site.

Oh, and sorry for the slight hijack. I do not have a mach drop fe. Just a premium with the same build dates...

I have no change at all. I feel left out...

I will keep an eye out for you! ?

me too

And the Ford app is the most useless laggy pos I have ever seen. I hope it improves once the car is delivered.

As far as the build and delivery, sorry for whining, but slow is an understatement. (covid and holiday delays asside) I'm glad there really hasn't been any viable competition, because I would have probably bailed by now otherwise.

You’re built!

???? Yipee!!
