✅ 8/15/22 Lightning Build Week Group

[dkf150]

Nothing here. Saw one person in the week after us did get the image. Still hanging out in production at ramp 59.

My car is 2-days away from being a month old. Still “in production”

Lol. That's what I get for not reading the full article. My bad. I got excited when I saw the headline.

I don’t believe this is related to the US. I couldn’t find a US article that claimed similar progress at the moment

Some numbers - Looking at the CA delay. (I think that rhymes.)

Looking at build week 8/15 and 8/22 in @TaxmanHog spreadsheet once again.

Trucks build and shipped:
- 1 to CA
- 14 all other destinations

Trucks build before 9/12 but not shipped yet
- 8 CA
- 2 NJ
- 1 OH, LA

Honestly it seems to me the delay is anything going thru Chicago (completely on brand). I am in Wisconsin and from my personal experience and research seems that Wisconsin deliveries are not that much better than CA even though we are dramatically closer to Detroit then CA. The east cost deliveries are tracking ahead because they dont go thru Chicago

Good for him! My ETA hasn’t changed, but Ford chat maintains 9/20 ETA, despite being on chip hold and no built or shipped statuses.

I just got off with Ford chat, they're last entry is on 9/10 and it was at Junction Point in West Chicago... anyone see our trucks sit in transit like that?

Seems strange, every time I call UP it says a variation of Loaded Setout, Loaded Pickup, Loaded Departure and a new date/time to go with it lol not sure what any of those means but the last update was on 9/13 (@ 6:37am it Loaded Setout). Oh and chat keeps saying that it's moving across via Canadian National Railways not UP.

Also tracking this strike is not going to be good for my truck unless it manages to get off before but that's seeming very unlikely

Same here. Really starting to get annoyed watching so many in the 8/22 and 8/29 weeks get built and shipped statuses while I just sit here knowing that my financing is going expire and will end up with a higher rate.

I show "Built" now on Order Tracker, but still shows "in production" on the Reservations and Orders page.

I feel bad posting this stuff after some of y'all are getting crappy news about chip holds. Hopefully y'all disagree... just got this from Ford:

My truck may be stuck in Winston-Salem rail yard purgatory for another 2-3 weeks, but at least Ford sent along a nice pic of it rolling off the Rouge assembly line.

Awesome. Don't feel bad and sorry if I have turned this thread into a personal complaint session!

Bro, complain away that's rough card y'all are being dealt

Just talked to chat again and they said that the status was updated today that it was back in the Dearborn truck plant and not a ramp. Maybe putting in the long lost chip(s)? Maybe?

Take it with a grain of salt - I have been told my truck is at Ramp 51, 58 & 59 after it was shipped. Most of the CSRs are giving me different answers.

I got my just rolled off the line email as well. Chat says it is still sitting in Chicago.
