That's a good sign!
I was really surprised with mine when I picked it up. My activation request that had been pending forever was still there on the screen when I got in for the first time. The railcar loaders/unloaders and the trucker ignored the crap out of that somehow.
@Labs4Lightning I can confirm I received the Tesla charger/plug thingie and the yellow connector for the 30amp 240v (bed plug) to nema 14-50 connector.
She is now home, happy, and will soon get their tonneau cover put on in just a little bit! For the record she showed up with 98 miles on the ODO.
Thanks! I'll report back on the adaptors.
I need to get this thing "broken in" by Sunday for a camping trip. I'll report back on how the trip goes as well.
Key points from the Palmer interview for me were --
• The HVJB (the issue where Mach-e's are dying on the side of the road currently) is not the same box used in the Lightning and additional stress testing for the Lightning over the Mach-e has been done.
• Patch is "1-2" weeks out for FCSP...
And per the the tracker this morning the truck has landed. I just reached out to the dealer and they confirmed it is there. It'll be headed into PDI and hopefully if that goes well I can pick it up later today. Dealer warned me it was their first time doing a PDI on this truck (I'm their first...
What's a smart number to tint the moonroof? No legal issues there just wondering what's a good number to tint that to where you can still see out but it blocks a good amount. 20%, 15%?
Update 2 for 8/1 -- I kept thinking that record wouldn't update like that unless new info got put into the VVR... and I was right.
Contacted Ford Chat again (2nd time today lol) and a new entry was put in. It has been assigned a Convoy Number from Jack Copper. "In Transit - Shipped Convoy -...
My ETA Just updated to 8/1/2022 - 8/7/2022. Dealers demo also updated to the same dates. Weird, I've never seen the .CA site update in the middle of the day/evening.. it's always been midnight. This updated just a little bit ago.
RIP camping trip if it doesn't show up by 8/5.
Sad breakfast...
Talked to Ford Chat just a bit ago. No new real info. Car shows received at the final ramp as of the 27th at 18:16. Assuming this means it was fully unloaded that day as the rail system said it showed up the night before, on the 26th. So overall has been there almost a week.
I wish I could ask...
Yea this will be the first delivery I've seen that didn't get this if it doesn't turn up somewhere. That or one of your lunch-break "shippers" who liked to move it between 3-4 lots all summer long, stole it lol.
3 to go, all with the same ETA. Tick Tock - is it going to be disappointment Thursday (8/4) or something else for once, for everyone?
Since Tuesday mine has been chilling 50 miles away from the dealer waiting for convoy pickup (presumably).
Bottom right hand corner of the EV one shows the battery is not covered across any of the plans. Believe a few folks were talking about this - it's not covered per that point. (It is though, via factory warranty until 8yrs/100k miles)
1) I think you lose all the online features like not being able to see how a charge is going from your phone. You also will not be able to adjust the charge (amps) rate via your phone. The only way you'll be able to do that is via the switch inside the unit. Charging should work fine otherwise...
The gift card I have heard about was only given up until the end of June. It was to compensate folks who didn't get their charge station pros early or were delayed from getting them. They are now shipping out and delivering roughly 2 weeks after purchase - so folks aren't getting gift cards any...
Does a dealer get any kind of contact/communication from a truck company when they are about to make a delivery? For example, would Jack Cooper contact my dealer when they are about to show up with a delivery? Or they just show up?
My ETA after midnight remains 7/29-8/4 -- my dealer's demo updated on the CA tracker to match.
Oddly my Window sticker is now working off the link on the Ford sites. The Ford links haven't worked since like late April.
