Finally. My window sticker dropped this morning with a 9/1 blend date. Went "in production" 7 days out, but the window sticker came 6 days ahead. Not complaining, just info for anyone else on pins and needles.Switched to "in production" and got a window sticker!
9/2 blend date
Blend date is your exact build day. When all the parts come together on the line to be assembled. Shipping depends on a number of factors including your location and method of transport. If your window sticker says RAIL it will likely take longer than shipping by convoy. Could be anywhere from a week to a month.Got my window sticker as well with a blend date of 9/2.
What exactly is a blend date?
Any idea how long after the blend date it should take to be shipped to my dealer?
curious - any way to track rail delivery, or are we dependent on the dealer for updates?Blend date is your exact build day. When all the parts come together on the line to be assembled.

I'd like to know this too. I'm North Texas and it says rail.curious - any way to track rail delivery, or are we dependent on the dealer for updates?
I'm Colorado and I have rail as well with a Blend of 8/31. I'm sure they wait for the whole production week to be finalized before shipping as well. It's not like "built", ship next day I wouldn't think.I'd like to know this too. I'm North Texas and it says rail.
Got my sticker and time to drive info this morning!Moved to production overnight in the tracker, but no sticker yet. I expect the sticker Thursday night or Friday morning though.
I'm in the same boat as you. I know the 8/30 build week wont stick and that we've been moved to TBD build week, but i still check all the time.Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure all of us MIC tops who were originally 8/30 have been moved indefinitely and just haven't been notified by Ford. The last official email I have from Ford said 8/30, but I was able to get my dealer to check in their system it showed my build as week of 9/13. The last official email from Ford was also sent before all of the announcements about the MIC top retooling. Given the timeframe we know about re: V2 of the MIC tops--coupled with the thread today about new FEs being scheduled mid-October--I'm almost positive that not only will mine not be built the week of 8/30, it won't even be built the week of 9/13 and will be moved again, to some TBD date in October or November at best.
