Just looked at my order status and it is "in production". I just looked, using the link above and pasting in my VIN, and my window sticker populated with todays date at the bottom. Perhaps the trucks with build dates "week of XXX" go into "production" on Sunday in prep for the weeks run? Just a thought.
I think the date at the bottom is just the date you connected and downloaded the window sticker. It's like a version date of the sticker.
I'm not sure the window sticker ever shows a build date. It shows a date in the special order box, but that's not the build date. More like a hand-off to the plant date, maybe. Or maybe a window sticker creation date. Not sure. But I am sure it is not the built date.
I ordered a 2024 F350 7.3L Lariat CCSB Ultimate BAP in Rapid Red, but ended up grabbing the one in my sig. No regrets. Since I’m not taking it, I haven’t been following the build. But for information I figured I check. Seems to be in production as scheduled. This will be at my dealer and I’m sure it’s not pre-sold. If anyone needs more details on order specs or dealer, please PM me.
I have a couple more days to decide on the Limited. I really do not need the Diesel especially the HO but plenty of Cool Factor. Trying to get used to the Interior. The Platinum will come with the Max Recline Seats and message function and I like a nice Saddle colored interior, always have. Mucho Dinero for either and this truck is going to be a keeper for quite a while.

I have the 6.7L in my 2020 F450 Limited. 475 HP and 1050 ft/lbs. of torque. It's amazing with a 24,000 lbs. trailer passing all of the big rigs on an uphill grade. For a 10,000 lbs. truck, it feels like a hot rod when driving solo. Also, 18 MPG on highway (flat terrain) and around 10 MPG towing. If you can spare the dinero, you will love it. I have a F450 Limited on order and if Ford ever builds it, I am looking forward to 1200 ft/lbs. of torque.

Driving it now and enjoying it. I need to put on 1000 miles so I can pull my 5th Wheel.
Nice looking truck. My 2020 is iconic silver. My order is similar to yours except it's a long bed. I didn't order the reclining seats and I'm hoping the standard seats are comfortable. I was told that they might hold up the order so I didn't include them. I hope you get many good miles from it.

1 day production...is that very common? Seems insanely fast to build a truck...makes me a bit nervous.

I spoke to my dealer last month about my order. He told me that he ordered 3 Super Duty trucks the previous week. Two of the trucks that he ordered were built that night! He is the owner of the dealership and I have known him for 25 years.

What trim levels did he order? They don't seem to be building many Limiteds, Platinums or KRs. I'm still waiting for a build date with a priority of 10. Going on 9 months now.
Coming from nine years with a RAM. This is my first Super Duty.
Placed the order for my F-250 XLT SCSB, 7.3L, 4.30s, Carbonized Grey over Baja with Console and Snow Plow Prep on 3/18
In production this week....
After waiting 15 loooong months for my new F-250 it was finally delivered last evening to my dealer. I stopped by the dealer this AM to check things out things out only to find the truck was built as an 8ft bed instead of the 6.5ft bed. The dealer admitted they made a mistake BUT the only fix is to re-order another truck since they have nothing other than XL's on the lot. After a few minutes of walking around the lot trying to cool myself down so I didn't snap at someone, I just left and said I'd be back later today or tomorrow to discuss next steps.

Well that just sucks. Sorry to hear. I think a huge discount is due. Tell them to reduce the price by $1000 per inch over what you ordered! That's $15,000! Like that would happen.
Hope you get it straighten out to your benefit and liking.
