This is the home for my new baby, a nice 36x30 garage.

Anyone thinking Ford is holding up delivery's till after June 30 so they don't have to do the $500 gift card and extra EA charging for any more lightnings then the ones they already shipped?

There are lots of lightnings that have had tear tags for 1, 2 and 3 weeks and still no build emails or delivery dates.

I don't know, but wouldn't truly think so. That $500 is pretty minimal. They need to keep everything moving they can in that factory and yard. I think if they wanted to minimize they could have just made the date June 20 rather than June 30. However - anything is possible.

I do think they had a parts shortage or slowed the line the last two weeks though. That is what took our modules so long to pop.

Either way since many of us did get the modules and in production now, between now and Monday I'm expecting us to get built and shipped !!!

I'm hoping for a rail car number by Monday !!

What's this about " $500 gift card and extra EA charging " ? (On my way to look for a thread)

To my fellow 5/23 Lightning Build Week Group Members, has anyone been contacted by SunRun yet?

Yep - just hoping our trucks hit the road quick. I'm set for charging so they can take all the time they need for a $500 card.

I"ve never had a bed liner nor did I think I would pay for one, but if Ford does this I'll have a liner put in likely.

Same here, the poppage has occurred!

Do they run a Saturday shift or is this just the lag?

As covered in another thread, The Ford Authority is reporting that there are chip issues with the Lightning that affect windshield wipers and the rear camera.

Does anyone know if the “popping“ of our modules means we are past this issue and that the trucks are otherwise good to go for any final testing and shipping to our dealerships?

The next question in line with this is even with popped modules if your status is "your truck is built awaiting final launch" is it possible to still be missing wipers/camera chips?

Didn't see anything on the subject when I just checked Ford Authority...
