Nearly 30,000 have, yes. There are many threads on it. If your number is greater than 30,000 (last digits), then yours is coming soon.... Soon may mean months from now.

If you can't wait, A2ZEV makes the Typhoon Pro adapter for Tesla SuperChargers. It sells for $189.00 ($170.10 after using code FORDFORUM). They also sell the Stellar adapter, which is for Tesla Destination chargers (such as hotels, private homes). It sells for $108. If you pick use the dropdown menu on the Typhoon Pro page to pick the Stellar adapter also, the combined price is $270.00 ($243.00 with code FORDFORUM). In other words, it’s only $72.90 more for the destination charging adapter. They are currently shipping quickly. I have both adapters and have used both many times. They work great. https://a2zevshop.com/products/nacs-ccs1?ref=Typhoon&variant=43186507579592

If you're lucky, you might even get a Free Ford-branded Lectron adapter. The Tesla made adapters are janky. There was already a batch given to Ford owners that was recalled -- recall even impacted some Magic Dock locations.

If you need an adapter right now, I'd pick up the A2Z. They make a great product and their customer service is stellar.

I grabbed the A2z bundle and will just sell the Ford adapter online when it comes.

It's possible you will still want/need the L2 adapter so the bundle made sense

Thanks for the info. I’ll buy the bundle. Range is reduced in winter much more than anticipated. I thought the heat pump would help with that. Still the best vehicle I’ve ever had!

I live in a warmer climate (SC) - does setting a departure time (plugged in to level 2) help with the winter range? It does get cold here occasionally and I have wondered if that is worth the trouble. Supposedly the battery pack is heated/cooled as needed prior to departure if you do that if I understand it correctly.

I bought my Lightning on 3/15 and I'm supposed to receive mine in November but Ford is rapidly running out of November. As a matter of fact, Ford will be completely out of November in 7 days and have no more November in stock. So I'm skeptical of that date.

I was tired of waiting and ordered a SuperTap from https://www.TeslaTapInc.com. I have used it multiple times and it worked great every time.

I have had the original TeslaTap adapter for years. They cost more than the Chinese ones but worth every cent and if you call them with a stupid question like I did, they will actually answer the phone.

I will just sell my Ford adapter when / if I receive it.

I ordered in March. Talked to Ford Support on Friday. Told delays in shipments due to first batch being faulty and had to be scrapped. Was told should get my adapter by year end.
