There was discussion earlier about Ford Pass and registering your VIN and I saw conflicting information. I wasn't able to register my truck until 24 hours after it shipped.

I registered mine after a number times over a couple of days. Mine was built the 16th and it registered yesterday.
My truck has not been shipped yet.
Congrats; and on a Sunday! When did you order? So happy people are getting their trucks; gives the rest of us hope but a little early for me.
Thanks
First of October, so just about normal pre-covid time frame. But, it's just a SRW Lariat without carpet and without adaptive steering. I wanted A.S. but was told it would make it almost non-buildable. I also looked hard at some colors other than star white. But after a grouse hunting trip to Michigan in a buddy's blue F150, I knew that I didn't want it showing every tiny rub from every tree limb.

My build day was the 16th. Still has not been released. It will be a week tomorrow. Seems like I am in with the spray in bedliner trucks.
I don't have the bedliner, only mudflaps and hood protector. Doesn't take much to cause a delay in this process.
Our F-350 Lariat was built on November 12th and is still sitting in Kentucky, waiting to be shipped. A few weeks ago, we asked a regional Ford representative to intervene and try to ship the truck to a dealer in Nebraska, about 10 miles from where we are currently staying, rather than ship it to Apple Valley Ford in Minnesota. The dealer told us they won't know which of the two locations the truck will be shipped to until it actually is shipped. So we are hoping for a Thanksgiving miracle and that it ships today or tomorrow to the local Ford dealer.
I have shared our build delays and other concerns with Ice Capades, over at Ford Blue Oval forums and he has been amazing with all of his inside knowledge. Sadly, he is convinced the truck will be shipped to Apple Valley Ford in Minnesota and not drop-shipped to a Nebraska dealer, as a result of the sales person and his boss failing to get the request to Ford in a timely manner. So it looks like I'm flying to Minneapolis in the next week or so. My Ford notification says to expect delivery sometime between November 29 and December 3rd.
The delays are tough. After 3 scheduling delays my truck was sent to plant 11/1. Then there was a plant shutdown? or something for a week. Then a build day of the 16th and now another week and still not released. Hopefully it will ship this week but then there is Thanksgiving to deal with. Really hoping for a miracle at this point. Dealer is providing an update tomorrow. Ford email has not been sent since the in production email last month.
Being as Ford has stopped emailing us with updates on our build or NON-BUILD our trucks I contacted my dealer to find out my truck has been pushed back a couple time now. Was scheduled for this week, then changed to 12/6 with a build day of 12/7 and has now been pushed 12/12. Which means the earliest I will see my truck is the end of January.
I reached out to my dealer this afternoon as well. He now shows my build week as 12/13. I won't get my truck this year. I think I am most frustrated by the fact that Ford is updating there systems, but has stopped communicating with their customers.
