Production of the Ford F-150 Lightning began on April 26, and now the factory-produced EV pickups are starting to pile up the company test track in Dearborn, MI.
Numerous convoys of F-150 Lightning trucks have been seen coming from the direction of Ford’s Rouge Electric Vehicle Center, and entering a side entrance at Ford’s Dearborn test track. The volume of stored Lightning pickups began growing at a steady rate during the first week of May, presumably due to supply chain issues and semiconductor shortages.
A similar scene erupted last year, when a mass of F-150s were stored the track once Ford began production of the refreshed 2021 F-150. Currently, numerous lots in Dearborn are overflowing with Ford Broncos, as they await parts to finalize their build. The supply chain issues continue to plague Ford’s assembly operations, and are affecting some of their most high-profile, and sought-after products. Is the F-150 Lightning the latest victim here?
