✅ 9/05 Lightning Build Week Group

[mr.Magoo]

Mine just slipped another week, to 10/21 -- 10/27

Kinda sucks that it takes five days to get it half way across the country but 10+ days to get it the last 40 miles. The dealer wasn't very encouraging either, saying they have lots of problems/delays with shipments from East Brookfield.
(don't get me wrong, I prefer cold hard facts vs. smoke up my you know what)

Edit - Spoke too soon, I just got an email saying "It's time to complete your purchase" and my truck have now arrived at the dealership.

This thread is now quiet. Does that mean everyone except me has their truck?

I'm hanging out with ya... I don't think I'm getting mine this week either. Likely early next week.

Delivered to the dealer on 10/13, signed and drived on 10/14!

I'm picking up mine on Tuesday next week, super smooth transaction despite buying it from out of state, got it titled and registered today and now it's just an agonizing 138 hours left to wait...

 

[thesneak155]

Well dammit.... I just got updated on the site this morning that my delivery window is now 11/10-11/16.

Yowsa! That's quite jump, any idea why ?

No clue... Not getting anything from Ford or my dealer. Starting to think there is a cargo truck shortage. The railcar is scheduled to be in Jacksonville on Saturday. I'm shocked that it would take another 3 weeks to get here from there if that's where the covoy departs from.

 

[mr.Magoo]

There is a shortage for sure.
Mine took almost two weeks to get from the yard to the dealer (40 miles).

It's unique though (I think) that they move it out that far, ahead of time, several of us were at the end of our delivery window when they bump it another week. Like mine, two more days to go and they bump it a week only for it to show up the very same day at the dealer. Makes me doubt they have much insight once it's delivered at the rail yard.

Do you know for sure it's on a train at this point ? If not check with ford chat to get history and a railcar number to track it.

Yeah I've been tracking the railcar so unless that is bad Intel I have no idea. I've had the week bumps too but nothing like this.

CSX phone system is accurate.

CSX phone system is accurate.

I trust that I just don't trust Ford that my truck is on that car.

 

[thesneak155]

Well this is not good. My dealer tried to do a history on it and his system is saying the Vin does not exist.

The back end database may be down, ORDERTRACK has been failing to return data most of this afternoon
