I hope I am wrong, but you and anyone else waiting to see ~ IN PRODUCTION~ may be waiting until the week of 1/9, might be a miracle though.

Several trucks scheduled for blends the week of 12/19 were delayed by 2 days, that puts your truck build on 12/24, I'm not sure if they kicked off more builds past Friday night, the week count and daily intervals point to a planned 5 days production week 12/19 to 12/23.

Based on experiences from last summer when the mid year maintenance pause happened, a few trucks were delayed until production resumed post-idle period.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all the Ford Lightning enthusiast!!!!

Merry Christmas @TaxmanHog, do you know if final prep and shipping will also be on hold until the week of 1/9. I believe that my truck is built, but awaiting shipping (I'm build week 12/12)

Those operations continue uninterrupted, if a truck is waiting on a module or badge, they get attention and move forward from the hold lot to rally onto a transport.

You answered my question on another thread. Thank so much Noel! My truck was marked as built yesterday so was wondering if my shipping would be affected with the shutdown.

So build is complete then which is exciting. Did your tracker update from in production to built?

No, Ford tracker still shows in production 12-23-2022 with no check mark. From what i understand from the previous build week groups, the Ford tracker is delayed from the actual build and shipped status of your vehicle.

I have been checking my status via the customer service chat program on the Ford website.

My Tear Tag populated today. 12/21 Blend, 12/23 In Production, 12/24 Modules, 12/26 Tear Tag.

It looks like this thing is coming together. Wish they’d let me come pick it up from the factory to beat the tax deadline!

Update: Just checked with the Ford Chat and they gave me an ETA of January 16, 2023.

That's awesome news!! Sounds like you may be one of the first deliveries from the 12-19-2022 build week!

When I tried the online chat tool, they read me the same info on my Ford page and said I'd need to talk to my dealer for more info.

 

[Pod]

same thing with chat for me…then, next day truck shows as built. Crazy
