I am not convinced that what is being referred to as the "rotation number" has any direct correlation on the status of your build.
My blend date is 6/28. I originally received an email from Ford on 4/22 that it was scheduled for production the week of 6/21. Since that time, the date on the bottom of the window sticker has updated twice but nothing else has changed, including the "rotation number" despite it's production week shifting from 6/21 to 6/28. What is being called the rotation number is, and always has been 8903. Meanwhile, here it is 7/12 and the "in production" status hasn't changed since 6/8 when it first showed that status on the tracker.
Personally, I think it's best to not machinate over all these little subtleties that everyone is guessing at in regard to when you will get your Bronco. There are way too many dynamic variables involved. Just relax and it will get here when it gets here.

Is it better to just be ignorant of the entire process, or to be able to sit here and watch each rotation number roll through MAP and count down until mine gets blended in?
I'll gladly trade you situations. Then you wouldn't have to worry about it lol.

Blend date of 7/13. Bold number next to it: 4341. Still showing “in production”.

even though I like my dealer because of invoice pricing, he has been completely unresponsive (for months) with any informational requests…..

My blend is 7/15 but my rotation number 5462.
So I have a later blend but a smaller rotation number?
I'm a 7/15 as well with 5665 rotation number. So I'm right there with you.

It actually has a very direct correlation to the status of your build, as it is literally your place in (or ON the assembly) line. For instance, the expedition I glanced at on the way into work that was sitting on the turntable waiting to enter trim line 3 is rotation number 1744. The dates may change, but those trucks are rolling off the line in a very specific order, so in one week when we start production back up, it will still be sitting there with a rotation number of 1744. Then we will grind out trucks until rotation number 9999, and the next one will be 0000. That number is also sent to suppliers to ensure that they ship seats, headliners, interior trim panels, etc in that very specific order.
Based on the rotation number my buddy told me, and the rotation number on my build, I may have a blend date of tomorrow, but I'm probably looking at at least a week and 2 days before my number comes up (based on past production numbers of around 3500 per week total production, Rangers AND Broncos)

6799 .... assuming it is that bold number to the left of the blend date.
I didn't read your reply very well, sorry...

I thought it was the bold number to the RIGHT of the blend date. Am I wrong?
Anyone?

uhhh....you lost me there. How could your blend date be 8 days PRIOR to your production number?

Oh that would make more sense. Folks who have posted theirs already maybe re-check. Here's the info from my sticker

@PREMiERdrum Would you happen to be able to shed some light on this rotation number thingy?
