✅ 5/16 Lightning Build Week Group

[vandy1981]

Also the denominator of the sequence ###/### seen in the past is now fixed at ####/4061

I wonder if this means that 4,061 trucks have been built as of 6/16/2022?

I think you implied you where Folsom lake guy, is that correct?


Just checking to see if a trucks arrived at my dealer yet.

Nope, my truck was in Riverside.

Went in to look at the truck today. Was able to do a test drive as well. The most noticeable thing is how quiet it rides. It does feel big when I'm driving it, bigger than when I drive the Rivian. Its been a while since I had my F150 Lariat, so I wasn't used to the size. At the end of the day though they only offered me $72k max for my Rivian, which is insultingly underpriced for what Rivians are going for. So I declined the offer and went home in the Rivian. I'm a bit disappointed, but Rivian is still a great truck, so its not a complete loss.

So if anyone wants a Lariat Extended range, it can be yours from Fritts Ford in Riverside. They are going to add a $50k ADM to it, so you are looking at $130k.

I input todays day for delivery of your build with black font and red background to signify you declined the order in my version of the tracker.

Garbage ass Fritts Ford. Same clowns who tried to slide a $5k ADM on my order. Let me guess the Sales Manager probably followed you to your car. Glad you didn’t purchase from them and kept your Rivian, they also insulted me with the low ball offer on my Model 3.

DONT BUY OR ORDER FROM FRITTS FORD…..

Based on their quote for your trade, they were bound and determined to get their $50,000 mark-up. Shame on them, and the person who gives it to them……..

was the dealer going to add any ADM or just MSRP if u had decided to take the F150?

The sales guy said it would be msrp, but we never made it to the contract phase.

I ordered through Folsom Lake, keep me posted on what you hear and I will do the same.

You make out with a great truck either way with the Rivian. Silly question, though. Why did you feel tethered to doing the trade with them to make the decision.

you could have had an offer from Carvana, driveway, vroom, carmax, etc in hand and sold it separately. At a minimum, it would have given you negotiating leverage for the trade. If they knew you had to trade to swap, they may have purposefully lowballed you to get the ADM.

That dealer is known to do that. They have no loyalty to repeat customers even though the staff/ownership is the same. This would have been my 3rd Ford purchase from them(last 2 times it was an all day event) until they tried sneaking in $3k ADM and when I emailed them they said it was a mistake and the ADM was $5k lmao…..

I’m surprised the truck was being sold at MSRP, I’m sure they would have thrown in that $5k ADM somewhere plus lowballing him on trade-in. I should drive by to see it in person, but I said I would never step foot into that dealer or service dept again.

BTW, CarMax is right next door.

I didn't want to risk selling the Rivian, then at the last moment the dealer adds ADM to the contract. At that point I'd have no EV truck.
