    100% understandable. As I indicated, you lasted way longer than I did before getting to this point. When one extends such levels of good faith only to have it blatantly abused-for MANY months, especially by such a well-established and resourced company like Ford, it has consequences. It...

    This is quite a dramatic turn of events. But I think in the end, you will think Ford did you a huge favor with this mess they've made of this product roll-out. At the very least, I have to believe the 2024 F150 will be much improved in product and support if you still want one and wait just a...

    Congratulations! You have been very patient. Ford should give you some really nice extras for all this trouble. Let us know how you like it.

    FWIW, I received this email today "Great news! Your 2023 F-150 Lightning PLATINUM SuperCrew has been built. Right now, we are performing some final inspections on your vehicle to get it ready for shipment. While this could add time to your wait, it ensures that we deliver a vehicle that you can...

    Thanks. I canceled both of them last night and picked up a new EV car. Tough but it was the best decision. I wish you guys the best with your trucks.

    Just an update- my dealer called me today after doing extensive research and was told that my Lightening is on a quality issue hold at the factory. The "earliest" he said I'd see it is mid May but this sounded like a wild guess and only if it shipped right away. So I'm definitely done with...

  7. ✅ 1/30/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    Thank you for this insight. At least now I can give up hope that I MIGHT get it this week. Not going to happen I guess. The cost of this collective disappointment and frustration from what must be hundreds/thousands of others could easily have been offset by some simple email updates. It...

    I will ask the dealer about the deposit. I assumed it was refundable but even if not officially, I would think the dealer can sell this truck for over invoice so would be glad to take it off my hands without penalty. Yes the RAM won't be available for awhile and I'm sure the other EV trucks...

    I've called Ford several times in the last couple of weeks. They say their systems are rarely updated but confirm that they only see what I see on the website "in production week of 1/30" but they also said it was in transit and due to the dealer on 4/8. I asked if they could contact their...

  10. ✅ 1/30/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    Still no update on mine either. The dealer is also in the dark. I have a second Lightening reservation that I made several months after this one. At this rate, I wonder if they'll hit their own 2023 production targets which had been to catch up to all preorders. I guess that one will be a...

  11. ✅ 1/30/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    ok good. I have not received any communication from Ford

  12. ✅ 1/30/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    I agree with your speculation. My truck status still shows "Scheduled for Production Week of 1/30/2023". The complete lack of any communication from Ford direct to customers is really shocking and terrible for their reputation. You get better proactive communication on delays if you buy a $50...

  13. ✅ 1/30/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    Pretty disappointed that my truck is one of the ones stuck- who knows, maybe its the one that caught fire:) The Ford dashboard I have access to still shows it as scheduled for 1/30 production but my dealer says his system indicates its in a "storage" area so its been manufactured at least. I'm...

  14. ✅ 1/30/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    My dealer told me mine will end up on a train which sometimes delays things a bit depending on when they can fill the train. So you may yet get yours sooner:)

  15. ✅ 1/30/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    Very cool, thank you! Are you able to tell from this when its expected to ship? How do you know the production numbers (in my case 240/294) represent the number of trucks being produced that day (or it it week)? Just curious as I read Ford's Lightening production in all of December was around...

  16. ✅ 1/30/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

    Thanks! I received an email yesterday saying there was an update to my truck but when I log in to the dashboard, everything looks the same. It just says "Scheduled for Production Week of 1/30/2023" under order status. Are you suggesting I should have an actual build day this week at this...

  17. ✅ 1/30/2023 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)
