I keep being surprised of these dates for CA deliveries.

I wonder if it's ford being somewhat confident that that can happen, or if that's just an old algorithm at play not factoring in the shipping slowdowns.
I bet it’s an algorithm that might factor in past historical trends or current times from the railways.

Question for @TaxmanHog -

Why does all the Ford trackers say Built and no email from Ford on shipping but Ordertrack.app says it's in transit!!!

Checking with Shop.Ford.com, Shop.Ford.ca and Ford.com/buy all say "built".

Why is it that OrderTrack.app has more updated info ?

Do they have special computer mind reading powers ??

He hits some special API's somewhere. I don't think he has disclosed, but from what I've seen, it is correct. So just know the journey has started and the Ford trackers will update soon.

Truly - if he says in Transit - you should be calling your dealer because you likely have a rail car number. That is where the good tracking is. Ford trackers are basically useless at this point anyway.

thanks Greg.

Amazing - It's all about coding isn't it ?

I will donate money to Ordertrack.app site for being so wonderful!

I did because I clicked that link sometimes 20 more times a day. Good news is my journey should end by this time next week. Another one of those 5/23 builds that clogged things up getting out of the way.

BTW - the question was directed to @TaxmanHog and I jumped in the way - so you may still have better info.

I asked the magic 8 ball about the truck shipping out tomorrow…

Here was the answer:

Ford F-150 Lightning ✅  6/13 Lightning Build Week Group CF829D6C-D698-4D53-9D01-BDFC67286A3C


I am trying to have a sense of humor about this, but in reality I am not in a good mood.

For me personally, I know that I am stuck at the train yard. I could have been there sooner, but even though the vehicle was “built” on the 30th, it didn’t go anywhere till the 6th.

EDIT: I just found that even though the truck got there on the 6th, it was just “scanned” in today as Received | Jul-08-2022, 09:48 ET | Ramp 5M, New Boston, MI

The developer has been asked a few times but has not disclosed details on how/why.

Its going to get lonely here if I don't ship soon :/

Only 12 people left in the sheet for the 6/13 build week that were built, and 109 waiting in "Awaiting Shipment" status according to ordertrack.app. Most likely more too since not everyone knows about or even reads the forums.

EDIT: now 11... @metroshot was just shipped... lol

EDIT Again: My oversight has missed the others that did not progress down the line into built/production. My mistake...

After a day of delay after OrderTrack.app reported, Ford (shop.ford.com) tracker now shows SHIPPED !

Whoo hoo - it might be tight to get delivery Ford expected dates?
