I hear that my Lightning has arrived to my dealer on the truck. Ford tech is due to arrive tomorrow to perform the PDI and I'm scheduling the pick-up ASAP after that!!
What do you mean the tech is due to arrive tomorrow? They have a inbound tech to work on the PDI?

Yes, they called me earlier to tell me that Ford sends a tech to do PDI on Lightning. I don't know if it's a "train the trainer" for the first one or whether it's for all of them, but there will be someone there tomorrow to do the prep work from Ford service.

I'm 6/18 and still waiting for my modules.. hopefully next day or two.
When you see the modules and tear tag, then a day or so later you will get a BUILT status, let us known your dates for the tracker.

I hate the idea of waiting for the tech to get out there!

I wish I could but they said "no". :)

They did let me be the first to drive it after the delivery driver unloaded it. I drove it to their prep area, so I did get the opportunity to drive it, at least minimally.

20.7 miles on arrival.

My FordPass is still "pending activation" in the app, but the truck never asked me to confirm activation - so I don't know if Ford is changing it to require delivery status first?
