✅ 8/21/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

[jhipp]

Just throwing it out there...I still don't even have acknowledgement from Ford that my truck is built, let alone shipped. I did get a spray in liner and a hard tonneau cover. Window sticker shows a blend date of 8/22. Anyone else from this build week in my boat?

I'm in the same boat. Blend date of 8/24, went into production 8/30, and the last time the tracker updated was 8/31. I messaged their online chat and they told me it was moved on 9/8 to a body uplift. Guessing that's the spray in bedliner

EXACTLY why I posted recently for folks to stay in their lanes, creates too much confusion, folks are already reading all the other build weeks, we can see the progress (or lack of) reports where they belong.

Sorry. When you're at 868 days since reservation you tend to read EVERY thread.

Historically, there is a 7-10 day lag with IN PRODUCTION to BUILT dates, when it takes longer than 7 days, something's up, but this is when production flow is completely normalized, at the moment we're not in a normalized flow.

I recently seen another member mention this email and delivery time frame, both of you are within CONVOY ride range hopefully you both see a shipping alert shortly if this is accurate and not a glitch.

Truck was marked Shipped two days ago (02Oct) and the dealer texted me saying it's already showing as being in North Carolina!

Just got notified that my truck is at the dealership (though haven't heard from them just yet).

As I expected, being only 20 miles from the plant, your delivery flag is up even before they logged the ship date, of course this all happened today hours apart.

Congrat's!!!!

Thank you!

Not seeing the correct price on the online payment calculator... have to work with the dealership to get that straightened out... Sucks to have missed the special financing by 3 days.

I just got off the phone with my Dealer and they said my Lariat ER is on the way to the dealership! Looks like my tracker never updated. They're not certain on when it'll get there, but they did mention it could arrive tomorrow. Doubt it, but I am happy about the update

My online order has been stuck on production since 8/31, but the online support chat had said that it was moved to a body uplift on 9/8. I got the spray in bedliner and mobile charger
