✅ 7/11/22 Lightning Build Week Group

[TaxmanHog]

Looks like they are a 2/3 order invite so not Wave 1.

I missed your point, you wanted to know how many wave-1 [January 6th 2022 ] folks are with you in the July 11th 2022 build week.

About one third [40] of wave-1 [January 6, 2022] orders are still waiting for a production week.

I think you're going to have a LOT of company on this thread starting Thursday, many folks in wave-1 along with the other five waves will be targeted to build weeks 7/11, 7/18, 7/25 & 8/1 next Thursday if the assignment cycle follows suit as they have in prior months.

Turn to top for new build week assignments

I adjusted my order to remove AT tires and I went from (6/6->6/13->) 6/20 to 7/11.

If this change is a way to save $7,500, then an additional three week wait is worth it. Even if days are starting to feel like months now!

I've been holding strong as a 7/11er since getting pushed back here on 4/20.

Nope, it was just to get another 150 lbs of load capacity, lol.

I've been pushed so many times now it's going to feel really weird when the truck actually shows up!

This morning I was scheduled for 6/13. Then it bumped to 6/20. Now it's 7/11!

I have a Lariat ER w/Max Tow in Antimatter Blue

Not a great sign for those of us not scheduled yet.

That's a great point. The only positive I can see for those that are not scheduled and possibly MY23 owners is that Ford may be intentionally pushing orders so that they hit their 200k vehicles sold in Q3 instead of Q2. If they hit 200k in Q3, Q3 and Q4 would receive the full $7500 federal credit.

I didn't realize there are still wave 1 orders that haven't been scheduled yet. I thought it was just us in the wave 3 and beyond that were still waiting to schedule.

Yeah, given what we have seen so far, scheduling the rest of waves 1 through 3 will take the of July and into August. Waves 4 and 5 will use of Sept and Oct with Wave 6 having November build dates. Let's hope Ford can ramp up some more and shift that to the left.or some of us will be getting our 2022 model year trucks in early 2023.

Hopefully they don't hit the 200k EV deliveries in June so everyone getting deliveries in CY22 will get the full rebate. Sounds like it's going to be close.

Nah, If that was the case they wouldn't slow down but would just push more orders to Canada since it doesn't count towards that tax credit.

They could also shift more Mach-e units to Europe.

Wave 5 Lariat order moved from 6/13 to 6/20 to 7/11

I thought MY23 is supposed to start in October?
