Yeah that's not true. I already have mine and it's not scheduled for production until April. Give Ford marketing (it's a confusing name for the department. It's not like their advertising department, it's essentially customer service) a call, 1-800-334-4375, and provide them with your order...
Yeah that's pretty common. The tracker on Ford's site isn't always up to date. Your dealer will always have accurate info, so don't worry about calling to ask.
The more exciting news is that your build got moved to an earlier date. That's the first time I've heard of that happening. Most of us...
So basically this week they will decide which vehicles they are building for the weeks listed. VINs will get assigned and those that placed an order and have their vehicle scheduled for those weeks will receive an email notifying them off their production week.
Ford Headquarters, its a weird name for the department. It's not like the people making commercials and advertisements, it's essentially customer service for people that placed orders. Here's the number: 1-800-334-4375.
Yeah, mostly resulting in the semiconductor shortage as more people buy laptops, new Playstations, etc, plus the rising price of Bitcoin so more people are mining, etc. Lots of factors.

Agreed, 3 months is reasonable, but then you have all the people that ordered back in November or even July that are still waiting on orders, with their dates pushed to this Spring. The problem right now is the uncertainty. We all want to believe our dealers (mine said 8-12 weeks from order...
I also order on Jan 9th! Busy day I guess! Badlands without Badlands package. Only extras were cargo management and Copilot+. I did get a VIN, but I had to call the Ford marketing department to get it, I don't have their number anymore but it's easy enough to find. I originally had a build date...
Update:
Hey Moderators, I'm going to try to keep this thread updated, so it probably makes more sense to change the title of the thread to just "Production Week Scheduling" and remove the "-- Week of 1/18/21"
Edit: Just realized I can change the thread title, so...I did that.
Yeah, I've begun looking for other options as well. Going to keep my order, but shop around at the same time. I'm thinking this must be due to the semiconductor shortage.
My order officially just got pushed back :thumbsdown: Was originally March 15th, now April 12th...who knows how many more times this is going to happen...anyone else get the same message?
