dearborn assembly plant workers

Do any of you work at the Dearborn assembly plant? We have an f-150 on order scheduled to be built the week of Jan. 29th. The truck is going to my family in NJ but I go to Michigan State University and wanted to take the Rouge factory tour in dearborn the day it is being assembled. Is there any way to find out the exact day and shift it will be built? Thanks.

There is a user here, named 'dearbornderek' (or something very similar). You might want to search the memberlist https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/members/list/ for his name. Good luck.

That's very cool. I would love to see a truck I was buying being assembled. Then again they would probably kick me out of the plant because I would end up taking the tools away from the robots and do it myself!
