@TheGeneralGrant Any Christmas miracles coming your way? I have not had a chance to run through the tracking spreadsheet for the past two days.
Quite the opposite! From my dealer:
I show you truck was returned to plant for something. Unfortunately FORD will not release this information. You should get an automatic notice from FORD when it is delivered to us. I am also happy to check again in a couple of weeks to see if it is on its way back to us.
Apparently Ford ordered it back on 11/30 and nobody at the dealership realized this until I asked the inventory manager to look into things. As of yesterday it hadn't even started making its way back to Michigan.

Gonna miss the tax credit, so I think I'm out of this one folks. I've enjoyed seeing posts about you all enjoying your trucks. ✌

Did you ever find out why the truck went back to Michigan?

Hey gang!

Hope everyone is loving their lightnings. I know I sure am. I’ve put a little over 4,000 miles on mine and can confidently say this is the best vehicle I’ve ever owned. Everything from 1PD to blue cruise to the stupid acceleration puts a huge smile on my face. Knowing that Ford has been consistently pushing out meaningful updates and will continue to do so has been icing on the cake.

I’ve been totally MIA for a while and have eschewed my tracking duties but I do have a good excuse! My wife and I had our first child last month and it has kept me crazy busy. I can confirm that he (and our dog) loves the lightning just as much as I do.

Congratulations and thanks for reviving this thread. It was nice to go back to the time when I was constantly wondering where the hell my truck is. Now I’ve moved on to wondering where the hell my software update is.

oof. Maybe I should revise my statement on Ford’s software updates. The spirit is there but the execution is a little off!

New question - anyone know if and/or when we might get the steering wheel heating that was deleted? I have read enough thread to loose hope of ever seeing the deleted trailer hitch weight scales.

I haven't seen a release of the plan, but I expect you will know at some point.
