My 2dr Base 7MT had a build week of 7/21 finally shows the BCE modules coming alive on Motorcraft....not long now.
Same here, texted the dealer today and he verified that it was off the assembly line but that it may be a few weeks before it arrives. I'll take it. Can't wait.....

Base
As the miles add on, my 2025 manual gets smoother and shifts better. I only changed the shifter knob to a white ball from Twisted Shifter and did the Steeda spring. Crawler works nice in heavy traffic and it has no problem holding 6th gear for hundreds of miles at a time on the highway behind the 2.3. Mine is just a 2 door base no options but feels much nicer than a "base". Putting on the trailer hitch in a couple days from Ford. I have a couple small trailers if in case I ever need to pull them with it I will have it. I will have to do the trailer brakes eventually and just use the Ford unit again since plug and play.

Okay, I give... [not up]

Is there any modules that get posted to PCM?

Not that I'm aware of. Mine has shown Built this morning on the order tracker. A few weeks for delivery to dealer apparently.

No, and once you have your tear tag, it’s been through the line.

Thanks... yes dealer checked 7/23, was built 7/20, and in Upfitting [HD Bumper].

No update since but figuring it's finding its place on a rail car and heading westward.

Just doing stairs to build up that left leg lol

The clutch is super easy. No left leg day required.

Also, it your tracker reverts back to order confirmed, it’s loaded on the train.

100% correct.

Clutch is easy and I later found that when it switched to confirmed that was the day it loaded on the train.

You're gonna love Ruby Red. It looks so different in various lighting. Its super bright rich red in direct sun, and when cloudy it's almost a maroon.

T2… good news and happy for you…

I thought I would share this with all to show… different things affect the build.
2dr BL manual mid SAS HD bumper tow, with earlier order dates… still waiting and happy to wait for the manual.

Thanks! I'm wondering if it's the tow package that's the hang up. I didn't order that. Did get the HD bumper, and Lux pkg, though

… though that, but now think it is just timing when the

‘As a remedy, the EBB module software will be updated’

into the assembly line software.

Sometime between our builds
This is good to know as my Badlands entered production on Tuesday night, with an original build date of 8/4.
