Congratulations!!!.....grrrrr....feel like I'm going to be the last 5/16 build group to get a build date (I know, someone has to be last).

Can't imagine it being much longer for you, unless they found a QC issue with your truck. Should have yours shipped in the next few days.

How many of you guys have been able to activate FordPass? If you're unable to activate what happens when you press the button?

I pressed my button almost 2 weeks ago and its still pending activation. I'm assuming there is no timeout, and it has to be either accepted or rejected.

mine times out after 90 seconds. It gives me an error and then times out

Stopped by my dealer (Apple Ford in Columbia, MD) to see if my rapid red was in. Expected date is 6/12 - 6/18 so figured with everyone getting them early it might be there already. Imagine my surprise when I turned the corner and saw this. Then quickly back to the waiting game when I saw no bed liner and verified the VIN wasn't mine. Running this through the tracker it shows as "built" but not "shipped" although in the vehicle details section it does say "final preparation."

Man, that’s gotta hurt. I just drove by my dealer and this letdown woulda put me in a glum mood for sure.

I would add that the dealer (Apple Ford) did not appear to have a demo anywhere on site yet either. They do have about 70 reacquired Mach-E's in the back though!

Nice find, Yup we will never see the shipped or final prep action dates until they fix the website.

Although it’s natural for sold vehicles to populate on the dealer websites across many brands, I figured I would share this one plus some additional background. This is the listing for the vehicle I posted above. Nice markup on it! the truck on the lot has a window tag saying SOLD and with customer name, so I don’t believe the site is reflecting real availability.

Apple is on the dealer list as having markups on Lightning orders from early on and they certainly have ADMs on the few other new vehicles they have on their lot; however, when I ordered mine there was no markup. Granted my order timing couldn’t have been better as Ford had just come out with the semi-threatening language on markups. I was able to get a fully executed purchase agreement too. We shall see if they follow through in the coming week or so with mine due any day.
