‘23 F150 Lightning Lariat ER (Sept ‘23 build)
Yeah believe we are the largest market for pickups, no surprise there right! I use Five Star Ford of Carrollton. They have 2 or 3 other sister Ford dealerships in the Dallas area so I’d guess they are probably #1 in sales.

salesman told me they are getting ready to install their public DC fast chargers but they will be in their parking lot behind the gate so not available 24/7 which sounds misguided.

I think they miss the point of the word "public"...

Lightning Lariat 2023, Jeep Wrangler 2017
I'm also in Dallas (one of the other aforementioned "Five Star Ford" dealerships). Mine is still "In Production," but I just got a note from the dealer saying that VinView shows the truck is queued up at the Rogue factory railyard. Now, that's not what the truck's GPS is telling me in FordPass, but I'll take whatever I can get.

Well… I’m the owner of a 2023 Lightning. As you all might have expected the first pass at the invoice price did not include the $100 reservation deposit, the $500 order deposit nor the $7500 dealer incentive. I will be eternally grateful to whoever posted the 11116 incentive code. I had to insist that my sales guy go look it up and reprint the invoice. After a wait of 20 minutes he came back with the correct numbers and all I had to do was give a hard NO to the guy trying to sell me an extended warranty. Nine month and 4 days after the order.

23 Lariat ER order. 23 Taycan 4CT, 04 E 320 wagon
Still “in production” and no update sine 9/18. Guess I’m blocked in by the other 14,999 lightnings sitting in the lot.

Same, except that I've been "In production" since 9.12. Although the "Last updated" line has been changed twice, on 9.25 and 10.24. But literally nothing actually changed (at least as with what is shown)

You have me by a day. I’ve been in production since 9/13. My leveling kit arrived today so there’s that……

2023 Lightning Lariat
Production 9/8, no update since 10/4. At this point, I'm actually getting worried about getting the year-end $7500 incentives.

If that comes into play I will buy one from dealer stock. I managed to find a few 511a Lariats on dealer lots when I was looking last week.
