I was given a tentative build date of 5/29 but nothing firm so far. Also no WS yet. It will be 4 weeks tomorrow since I placed the order. Nothing on COTUS and no build date on ETIS. Haven't tried Ford Chat yet.

We also have some plans this summer when it gets here. I'll be driving it everywhere to get the 1000 miles on it as soon as it arrives. That won't be a bad things though, get familiar with the truck before I tow with it.

Where do you go to get on Ford Chat?

I went into the build and price section and a chat box appears within a few minutes.
Sounds like ours may go through the line at the same time; will let you know when my W/S appears, should be any day now!

The week prior, pending it hasn't been pushed back, Ford schedules all vehicles for the week and you will have a (schedule to day XX) status. That is the day of that week it will start the assembly line. 5-7 days prior to the build DAY, your window sticker will be available online.

Nothing will change status wise till the week prior (from April 13th) till Ford figures out what day it starts the week of May 15th.
I rcvd an update from the dealer on Monday and it now states "Scheduled to day 2017-05-26". COTUS updated today and says "In Production" but the Windows Sticker is not available yet, from either COTUS, CHAT, or FordDirect.

If I understood your post correctly that means my truck will start down the line on May 26th for paint etc, and finish being built the following week???

if it is "scheduled to day, then yes that is your build day. I have seen it pushed a day or two in the past. Although not common,it does happen. But you should see your window sticker next week.
