That's what I keep telling myself ?

I may be checking things over a bit more than planned, but still don't think I will need a tesla-style checklist.

Nope, not at all. These cars will be new.

I thought I was originally aiming for about 5000 in the queue when I made the reveal night reservation, little did I know I would end up in the less than a 1000 jackpot hurry up and wait queue.

Almost there, (moved down payment money into checking account) psyche!

Anyway, luxury purchase, once we past the 2020 calendar I could wait, just a little concerned the more hands that touch it and unload/load/unload the more likely it will get screwed up. But I've got a bit too much Monk in me and need to relax. Joyriding during this work at home time would have been a nice diversion though.

Extra points for the Monk reference!

The Tesla list is actually pretty easy

1. Do the panels on the outside all line up?? If the answer is NO then you are good

2. When I test drive the car as 65MPH does the glass roof fall off?? If The answer is YES then you are good

3. If I test drive in the rain does the rear bumper fall off?? If the answer is YES then you are good to do.

6. Did I pay the extra $10,000 for automatic driving that will not be available for several years?? If the answer is YES then you are good to go.

There is your checklist with the answer sheet.

Mine was produced on 11/13.
At one point the tracker had an eta of 1/12, and the dealer told me to be ready to receive one of the first in MI.
Now the eta reads 1990-01-01, which seems akin to “never”

Bummer

The 01/01 date is on mine too. Just ignore it.

Use this one

What are you using to get this update? Is this something only dealers can get?
So, going by this, it appears that it takes 9 days from the date we are given as the production day to the date Ford declares the vehicle “produced”.

roughly, depending. Mine took almost 4 weeks, but that was including the christmas shutdown. The sub statuses are apparently "sent to plant" (which doesn't actually do anything), "body shop", "trim line", and then "built". But the primary status stays "in production" after being built until it actually begins the process of shipping, which takes some time.
