I got the rail car number from chat with an estimate to be delivered to Kansas City on 11/19. From there I think it takes a truck to Granger in Iowa.

Update from Norfolk Southern is something like "LOD vault mixed center Missouri " at 2pm today. I don't really have a clue what that means but I guess it is in Missouri somewhere.

Post with good info on getting status info once shipped: https://www.f150lightningforum.com/forum/threads/lightning-order-decoding-tracing-guide.10224/

I still don't understand why everyone is having Spray in bed liners done at the factory. Especially forum members that know it's holding up builds. I would much rather have Line-x than a ford logo in the bed with delays

I got the factory bed liner and was under the impression it only delayed a few days or maybe a week?

Does your order status on ford.com match up with this or does it still show awaiting shipment?

There was a brief delay to factory bed liners late last year, but otherwise it hasn't been holding anything up. I'm still not seeing where it's causing any hold -- the real delays are sporadic chip holds and shipping/ logistics for delivery.

My Lariat ER has the spray-in liner and it's built, just waiting shipment, no other holds. I think I'm in this 10/24 build group. I was never giving a production date, just my status changed to in production, then I got the subsequent in production and built emails. My blend date was 10/28. Dealership says they're expecting it first week of December based on how other trucks are shipping to them.

...which means it will qualify me for the $7500 tax credit that I probably can't take advantage of since I'm not expecting to owe any taxes this year with all the market losses and slow business and all that. The only thing I've been successful at this year is losing money. So, uh, hooray for that. Yay, tax credit.
