UPDATE: Lightning Build Date Scheduling Begins! Mine for the week of 4/25/22 [previously scheduled 5/2/22]!

[TaxmanHog]

All platinums were scheduled for April. They were priority for first to build by ford.

Only builds that recently came out are the standard ranges and XLT extended.

Has the production scheduling been happening at the same time as the waves were rolling out? Is it safe to say the next round of production should be scheduled on Thursday? Or does it seem to be sporadic at this point?

My F5 key hates me and would like to know.

Scheduling has been happening on Thursdays. Keep in mind that this a scheduling week not a blend date. Also, the window sticker usually shows up about a week before the blend date.

So you'll still have F5 targets after you get your build week.

Ditto here too. I heard that they mainly schedule things on Thursdays too, but I still can't help but hit that browser refresh multiple times each day. Since January 20th, it's like an itch I can't help scratch.

My coping mechanisms as I wait on a wave 3 Platinum to get a production date: deployable running boards will become standard and added automagically to my order, software and hardware will be bulletproof, PAAK will be 100%, no price increase as gas doubles even in south central Texas.

Hahah...I had my dealer add the deployable running boards, so I'm hoping that they don't delay it too much from scheduling. IIRC, it was only like a $250 option for them.

We will have sibling trucks in DFW. Same truck, same build week, my color is AntiMatterBlue. Guessing they could catch the same ride from the factory to the Metro. I'm in North Dallas, dealer is in McKinney.

Very interesting, my dealer is in Denton.

Interesting. I have a Platinum and haven’t heard yet after I placed my order early Feb.

You and 15 others on this forum have not had build week dates issued.

Looks like FoMoCo will meet their goals of first deliveries in the "Spring" at least to fleet customer orders
