✅ 5/16 Lightning Build Week Group

[GDN]

I'm still in Purgatory. Ford Chat tells me the same thing every day -- Ramp 59 in Dearborn, last update was on May 30th. I got the shipped email on June 6, and my delivery date has remained 7/1-7/7 this whole time, so not sure what's going on. Like some others have seen, my window sticker has changed, I assume they just changed the formatting, but it has a date at the bottom of 6/16/22 -- any idea what that means? Somebody else posted they thought it was an updated blend date?? How about you guys, is your date in that box the same as your original blend date?

My truck has a date of 05 11 22 in that spot on my window sticker. My blend is later on 5/24. The order tracker tells me that 5/11 was the date my truck was invoiced to my dealer, so maybe that is an invoice date? I don't know where the "order tracker" pulls the invoice date from.

Go put your order and VIN in this app and see what it tells you for dates - https://ordertrack.app/

Same as they've always shown on that page:
Invoiced
Wed May 04 2022
Blend Date
Wed May 18 2022

I would guess that’s the document edit date

You mentioned earlier that you have a new windows sticker -- what date do you have in that slot?

It was 05/04/22 and it’s now 06/16/22.
I downloaded the original and the new stickers.

Hmm so you are the third person to have this date change to yesterday. @F150ROD and I are the other two. What is the status of your Lightning (built date, ship date, location)? Mine has been sitting on Ramp 59 for 3 weeks, so I think something is fishy.

I don’t know what to think anymore. I have a Built Date of 5/27, Shipped with a nonexistent Railcar Number, no update since May 30th until a couple of days ago and now stuck in Blue Island for the last 3 days.

How did we get so unlucky or lucky? Early deliveries everywhere and then all of a sudden microchip issues, it’s almost as if Trucks were hand selected to be shipped out completed

I got an email from Ford this morning saying:

“Your F-150® LightningTM just rolled off the assembly line

You read that right.

Get ready for your all-electric workhorse. Your F-150 Lightning™ is now one step closer to arriving at your dealership.

Here's a photo of your F-150 Lightning in its final moments on the assembly line.”

I hope it’s on the railcar they said it was on last week and not just rolling off the line. But I like the photo!

Got email this morning also:
your ford rolled off assembly line. Window sticker also changed to 6/16/2022. Last location on 6/8 was blue island,IL.

I'm hoping I get the email and window sticker soon like you guys. For now I found the railcar Ford gave me at one point, hopefully she's in there.

@run4tacos
did ford chat give you a railcar number and any movement from blue island?

No movement from Blue Island since 6/8. Right now it shows no railcar, but previously it showed one and that's what I've been tracking. I doubt that they move trucks between railcars and someone with access to BNSF data confirmed the car is headed to Richmond.

I think it's more likely than not the truck is on this train.

Got an email today saying Continue your purchase at your Ford Dealer. Assuming this means that they have the truck now.

I don't know where the "order tracker" pulls the invoice date from.

O the original stickers, this date was when the VIN was selected for a blend date and then the sticker was queued to be viewable, now, after reviewing a BUNCH of them, this date is yesterday when the sticker design on the top margin was redesigned.

So does the new sticker layout no longer include a blend date? I can't find one on mine, just the 6/16 date which you are referring to here as the invoice date.
