Sign, sealed and delivered...240 miles home for its first road trip, 2.1 mi/kWh from Virginia to Pennsylvania. I hope the rest of my fellow 5/23 can get to enjoy it sooner than later...

This is a great shot, almost enough to make me want AMB over the Smoked Quartz....almost :sneaky:

I feel you @davidf01, my truck is sitting collecting dust at a lot in NJ, since it was unloaded from the train Wednesday :(

@Ford Motor Company any help here???
Not sure Ford can help you much here….you’re at the mercy of the trucking company scheduler….

Yeah.... Nope not the case... I called the trucking company and this is direct from them "we see your truck in the lot, we have not been authorized by ford to pick it up, please have your dealer contact ford regional manager to have us pick up the truck and deliver to your dealer"....

Yep... Just my luck I guess
Me and you both. Mine's been sitting at the local rail yard for 11 days now. Dealer says they're doing everything they can to get it out of there, whatever that means.

Much anticipated phone call today from dealer. Mine just showed up and hopefully pick her up tomorrow.

Congrats nonetheless!

2019 FORD F-150 SUPER CREW PU/CC 4x4 XLT
After spending 6 days in the railyard outside of Philly, the truck made its way and was dropped at my dealer early this past Wednesday morning (7/20).
I took delivery on Thursday afternoon (7/21) and, on Friday (7/22) have already taken it on a 150 mile road trip. Overall, I am averaging over 2.0 miles/kW.

During that trip, my experience at an Electrify America station (at a Sheetz in Bloomsburg) was less than enjoyable.

Heading to the NASCAR race at Pocono tomorrow to test out the frunk-gating potential. Not personally looking forward to the inevitable strangers who want to gawk at it and talk about. Yay!

@TaxmanHog, how many 5/23 - ers are still waiting on delivery?

It's been great hanging in the forums with y'all. Thanks to everyone for the help tracking the truck, especially those who responded to my posts directly, but also to those from whom I gleaned details from their posts.

I do plan to lurk in this particular thread for some time but also perusing the other threads. Especially for info on charging solutions, experience overall and experience with SunRun (for the near term)
