Same happened to me, but the reason is the fact that the factory will be closed for 2 weeks, they did not schedule any trucks for the weeks 8/7 and 8/14, normally the in production starts about 5 days before the built date.
Similar to mine, chat provided my VIN and build week of 8/21, however tracker said ordered. Two weeks later it updated to 8/24 on the tracker. Pretty sure once you have a VIN it will be build.
Did get a scheduled week(8/21) from the Ford chat but on the tracker said confirmed only, 2 weeks later the tracker did update and now the scheduled week did show a date in the middle of the week 8/24
I did order the SIBL, but did not order the 6D and on the tracking page under packages it shows
Bed Utility Package Discount
The picture of my truck does show the rails, do they now automatically add the rails with the SIBL?
They have not scheduled any for the first two full weeks in August. (8/7 - 8/18), factory vacation shutdown. But they are starting the additional shift in July . I am scheduled for the week of 8/21 and I am 78xxx.
Dealer here in MD has 2 Lariats on lot asking $1000 over. https://www.sheehyfordgaithersburg.com/inventory/new-2023-ford-maverick-lariat-awd-supercrew%c2%ae-3fttw8f9xpra36630/
I never received any e-mails from Ford either. Like you got a copy of the order. Did do a chat a few times and always got order received. Today was different and got a VIN number and production week. Still crickets from dealer. So try the chat and you might get some good news.
