✅ 5/30 Lightning Build Week Group

[Sam James]

Mine was supposed to be here today but got another 15 day delay. I am starting to lose hope. I am still connected to the vehicle through Ford pass but someone disabled the location share about 12 days ago so i cannot see where it is. No movements on the last 12 days though. I do have the securialert active so i know whenever the door is opened. Lost all the excitement and now have anxiety to get it delivered before end of Q3 fearing Ford would have sold over 200k vehicles and I will lose half of the tax rebate. I still cannot comprehend why ford is this incompetent when it comes to shipping.

If they cross 200k in Q3 you’d still get the full credit if delivery was taken in Q4 under the old rule. There was a phaseout period. You should be good on that score!

I understand the frustration…I’m precariously close to being outside of our 90 day window for sales tax offset on sale of another vehicle because I thought Ford would be on the ball more. Also close to having to pull my credit all over again. Hopefully like what happened to me, you’ll find this last 15 day extension won’t be needed!

Hey, were we supposed to receive a Tesla adapter with delivery? Reading some of the other threads, it seems like some get one and some do not.

no, just the early builds received it from my understanding

At the dealer! I knew before they did. He's gotta see how soon he can get me scheduled for dealer prep and to install the running boards, but it's either today or tomorrow that I pick it up

It's been a long time coming, but really happy it's here for you! Enjoy the heck out of it!

Picked it up about an hour ago! Super easy, no attempt to mark truck up. They found out my charge port it a little loose during PDI, already ordered replacement. Getting ready to take family for a ride! Pics later

Picked mine up from Granger yesterday and had a successful ~400 mile trip bringing it home. LOVE it. Folks afraid of EVs are missing out! Enjoyed listening to my folks for about an hour of the drive trying to call Ford dealers to find one of their own.

Thank you @dfoisy for giving me a heads up that @Dymo actually took delivery around 7/31, sadly probably no longer a Lightning enthusiast at this point. That said here is the final report for the 5/30 build week sorted by 'arrival at dealer' date order.

Sunday 9/4 reports, no changes.

Isn’t our week complete with all of the Lightning’s delivered to their owners?

Yes, though we've had a few folks adding their build history on the official tracker, I import these folks on Thursdays, just a double check confirming you folks are a done deal at this point.

Mine is still not delivered. Pushed out again to 9/13-9/20. This is the 3rd time it has been delayed. Not sure what's going on but the vehicle has been sitting since Aug 9th without even anyone opening it's door. I am getting worried there is an issue with the vehicle and i will never get delivery of this vehicle and somehow will be pushed to another vehicle. Ford cannot be this incompetent. There has to be a reason why they are failing to ship it. It has been 3 months since it's built!

NO ADDITIONAL RECORDS ON THE OFFICIAL FORUM TRACKER FOR 5/30

And, oddly, I may be the only Missouri lightning to actually ship Convoy.

" I show Convoy # 2401xxx (Vehi-ship Llc)" as per Ford Chat

Did you ever figure out how to track this? Also did it switch to a train at any point?
