Based on what I've seen in this and other threads, once you have a WS with a blend date, you are pretty much locked in. I haven't seen much if any movement after WS is issued. I think it would take a significant logistical exception for your blend date to change after WS. Not saying it can't happen, but it seems issuance of WS is a giant step to securing your place on the line.

Seems pretty consistent for most WS at T-6 days from build date
If that's the case then I should see my WS tomorrow. Assuming that my date doesn't change again.

Can anyone give me the general jist of what production looks like- meaning, is it a multiple day event for each vehicle? Or just one day? What is the blend date vs build date?

I’m sitting at 8/26. They gotta be locking in schedule soon you’d think. From talking with ford chat they said it could move up a day or two as they get going. Still ETA 8/27-9/2 which doesn’t make sense unless I’m getting loaded on the truck and they are driving straight to the dealer as it’s 6 hour drive from the plant.
I’m still 9/6-9/12 IN Georgia. I wonder if you’ll be convoy being closer to MI

There’s a link on post #1 to the build process guide that answers these questions better than anything else I’m aware of.

I Just got this reply from my dealership on how long it would take.

"a few days to build generally 3. Then it gets moved outside, then moved to a ramp, then put onto a carrier awaiting a train, then it takes a train ride to a railyard in MD or VA, then a truck ride to the store. There are generally a few days of waiting in between each of those steps. "

WS popped up for me this morning! If I am looking at the right thing, by blend date is 8/24 which is weird because I was told on chat last night that my build date is 8/27.
Had the same thing happen to me. Yesterday morning Chat said Build Day 8/27/2022, got WS last night with a Blend Day of 8/24/2022.

This quells my worries somewhat! My build week and then projected dates have bounced around a bit and was last told a build date of 8/27, which was the last thing I wanted to hear. Fingers crossed for better news soon!

My tracker moved from order confirmed to in production. No WS yet, seems like some people got a WS soon after that and some didn't 🤣🤣🤣. We'll see

I wonder how they figure out rail versus convoy. I live in MD and have a CSX rail yard like 2 miles away from my house. They may only go to Annapolis and Baltimore, but still. Not sure why mine is getting shipped by convoy. Wonder which is faster! Lol. Just hope mine arrives in one piece and without marks or chips on the paint. 🤞🏼🙏🏼😬 I already printed out the check off list to go over with the dealer.

He may be basing it off of previous orders they've gotten in. Hopefully I'll get my WS tomorrow and it will say Convoy instead of Rail. Honestly Michigan really isn't that far away form us.

Convoy is typically faster because its direct to dealership instead of sitting at a railyard waiting for a trucker to pick it up to go to the dealer.

Yeah mine bounced around within out build week, I think we just check too often🤣 But I was definitely surprised to see the window sticker populate- hope yours pops up soon!
