how do you find if you have a window sticker?

I have a suspicion that many (not all obviously) with a 10/4 build date will find out they may have been pushed when their window stickers dont appear in the next couple days. And a majority of those that do get window stickers are those that were recently pulled forward from 10/11 week to 10/4 week (for example) as the system did a very recent re-shuffle. I am getting the sense at this point that many build dates end up being stale after a week or two, as the assignments are getting more fluid in the final production months. I.e. the herd gets pushed, pushed, pushed, and then theres a quick grab of Broncos that are pulled forward last minute and built. In other words - your assigned week is pretty much pointless until 1.5 weeks out of what's actually being built (given window sticker lead time is a week)
Are you thinking this for those who are MIC rather than us softies?

Not sure what the constraint is. Maybe it's different every week too. It's hard to say if there are any themes, with the exception of my point above, there are a few guys that said they received a window sticker (and were also pulled forward last minute), and someone else that 'randomly' received a window sticker early (which is kind of the same boat - he was pulled forward, he just didnt know it). And many sitting on a build date for 2+ weeks that havent recently checked in to see if it changed are now scratching their heads as to why they havent received a window sticker yet for their upcoming build. Does that mean being pulled forward = more certainty? Maybe.

I was a 10/11 then was moved to 10/4. I looked on the Bronco6g tracker this weekend and my window sticker was there. :). I have 2.7 SAS Badlands Lux.
I am the same build it sounds like. Still sitting at 10/11, but glad to hear people are moving up weeks and not back!!!

Yeah, it sure is a guessing game. But I'm just glad I'm playing this game and not the waiting game.

Agreed. Counting myself extremely lucky that I even have a VIN to check in these trackers 5 times a day lol

Welp, just checked with my dealer - I’ve been bumped to 11/01. Bit of a stinker for sure but I’m still just happy to get a MY21 and keep my AMB color selection, I guess. Godspeed, my dudes.

The sad reality is the only way to stay on top of these fluid changes is if you have real-time access to the database, and can check it regularly, which the dealer does. It will drive one NUTS if you do have that access yourself, because things change quite often with this vehicle as of late.

The statement that says 1.5 weeks out being valid is probably not quite true. Once the status says "sent to plant" it's pretty much locked and loaded, which usually coincides with the window sticker showing up, which seems to be around 7-9 days before the build date (I hate the term "blend"- so dumb)

Just got an update from my dealer and I'm now pushed too...from the original 10/04 to 11/01.....

I'm happy to get the MY21 to keep Rapid Red, but timing wise it might as well be Spring now and get a MY22, as it won't see much winter driving time.

I wonder if the build dates are shuffling around to cluster orders geographically? If shipping logistics are a struggle exacerbated by covid, they’ll want to ensure every train and truck manifest is full. It may be easier to build and load straight off the assembly line with shipping optimized...maybe…

I've avoided checking with my dealer on if my 10/4 build date is still on schedule, but today my curiosity got the best of me and I asked and sadly informed me that now looks like pushed to 11/8.... Merry Christmas I guess
