For those that received - how long between receiving the charging station and truck delivery? And does it go to your home or the dealership?

~2 weeks, sent directly to your home.

Dealer just reached out, my truck has arrived! Should be picking up tomorrow. Order track site, shop.ford, and my personal order page all still show in transit.
The truck has sat at ramp 46 in Albany since 9/2 if I recall correct, and was awaiting assignment to a carrier as recent as this past Friday when I hit up ford chat.

Just saw a Lightning in my neighborhood while walking this morning. It is a Lariat.

My estimated delivery was also upped from 9/8-9/14 to 9/14-9/20. I presume my truck is one of the California deliveries sitting in the giant parking lot in Richmond CA Hoping it hits the highway to my dealer before the RR strike happens.

Mine is still 9/14-9/20 but if people are receiving their trucks while the tracking info is showing "awaiting transit" then I could very well be waiting for a truck that's lingering in a CA receiving lot somewhere. I don't think the looming strike will impact convoy deliveries so if our trucks are off the trains we might be ok but that depends on whether train unions are the ones who load from parking lot to rig--I don't know how that works. Currently the main union members still holding out on agreeing engineers and conductors because of the scheduling issues resulting in two person train crews needing to essentially be on call 7 days a week.

So that means even the dealership will be surprised when my truck arrives on the lot or does their VVR show more updated info than the tracking sites?

Looks like @ExCivilian is correct…the rail strike will only affect cars not yet unloaded off the trains. The railroad will still allow transporters to pick up cars sitting in the rail yard parking lots like Richmond in California (where my truck is sitting I presume).

Finally got my end of assembly line picture 2 weeks after picking up my truck!

My truck is stuck in production. Ford chat had given me an estimated delivery date of 9/6 a couple weeks ago but checked back yesterday and they say it's still in production with production estimated to be complete 10/5. Super disappointed. Anyone else getting pushed to October?

 

[Roy2001]

Got the assembly line picture this morning, hopefully I can pick up the truck this week.

That’s great that there’s still hope for us!

Yep - got the email with the photo today too! But I really just want a photo of it waiting for me at my dealer!

 

[bartlee]

Got my photo yesterday too. Delivery estimate has changed to 9/13-9/19.

Doing a little detective work, I got notice that my Ford Pass activation was denied by someone at 1:05AM. Would they be loading it onto a truck at that hour?
