✅ 7/25 Lightning Build Week Group

[Drillerr]

My Lariat ER Max Tow had a blend date of 7/26. Earlier this week I got in touch with Ford Chat and was told my estimated dealer delivery date is 8/29. This morning I checked Ford online tracking and it finally had an update. It's estimating my delivery date between 9/7 - 9/13. A week or two different. So, who knows?

Congrats everyone on getting their build dates! According to my window sticker, it looks like my dealer didn't cancel the factory spray-in liner. Has anyone an idea of how many extra days this will add to my build date?

Mine was 7/25 blend and has the spray liner, apparently it shipped on 8/9.

I have the spray liner option and hit built status on 8/10 from a 7/26 production date.

I was pleasantly surprised with the quick built & ship findings in this mornings review I hope that continues in subsequent weeks, but there can be exceptions, and the reasons might be un-related to spray-in as well.

Built and shipped emails came from Ford early this morning with estimated delivery (CA) of the first week of September. Tracker app updated to built and awaiting shipping just yesterday. Seems to be suspiciously fast of Ford to update the status so quickly. Hopefully it’s accurate and I get it soon!

Tracker shows my 8/27 blend, 8/8 build Pro as in transit today.

Coming to CO. I assume that would be by rail? Does the shipping email give you the rail car info to follow?

My Shop page just changed to shipped. Looked a few hours ago and said only built, so they apparently are loading trains into the night.

I received an email overnight from Ford saying that my Lariat has been built and is undergoing a final inspection prior to shipping. The delivery estimate to my deal was the same as my order status page was saying, which is 8/13 - 8/19.

yep, those emails are pretty worthless, unless you know nothing about going into your account and seeing information way ahead of those emails.... depending on Ford's emails is problematic, as you'll probably already have your truck before you receive the 'built' email : ) (as many have!)
