✅ 12/12 Lightning Build Week Group (MY2023)

Oh… sorry guess you and CAMB150 is right. Not sure where I read that time of order from….

Mine is under $55k no matter what number you look at. So annoyed they wouldn’t give it to me. Hopefully the Board of Public Utilities will come through for me!!

So you were able to get the full 9k in price protection on top of the $7000? That's good to hear.

No it’s not on top. 7k for the first ford price increase for 2023 models and 2k from NJ, total 9k off and NJ is tax free for EV. Trade in my Mach e because this deal is too good to pass up.

I was just reading up on it. The dealer should be applying it for you and indicate it on the sales order.

I think they were wondering if you paid the sticker price minus those two (7+2) of if you got the purchase protection from the October $5k increase then minus 7+2.

I agree but there is one small sentence in the terms and conditions that claims it has to be on the eligible vehicle list and it is not. Only the 2022 lightning is.

do you have any justification that can beat that? I am currently in contact with the Board of Public Utilities that ultimately approves things

Estimated delivery on Fordpass moved from 2/13-2/19 to 1/12-1/18, while Ford Chat and Marketing say it's still in Flat Rock. Tracker still shows "awaiting shipment"

fyi I posted my rant under general topics but i feel obliged to share with my fellow 12/12ers. Sorry to be Debbie Downer but today sucked.

Day one of lightning ownership. Five stars. Perfect in every way. Exceeded all expectations. Now Ford needs to seriously work on public chargers. I just assumed it would be super easy like my Tesla was. Broken machines, convoluted process, way too many apps, 800 #’s manned by call centers in the Philippines, won’t accept debit Visa, just to name a very few. Thank God my home charger will be done in a few days. I can’t imagine doing a road trip in my beautiful new truck until Ford fixes this infrastructure shitshow.

Barry - I'm curious to know which public chargers you tried in our area. I charged on the ChargePoint bank at the Target shopping center on Camino Arroyo yesterday for a little bit. They aren't the DC chargers but they work and are free for 2 hours. I've also not had isuess with the ChargePoints at the Walmart/Cheveron station on Camino Arroyo nor the ones at Target in MH off of Cochran (which are also free for 2 hours). We have not yet tried the Electify America at the outlets yet though.

@EdwinT and @Minh you both should receive the 2K because ur under the cap limit. I feel bad for you EdwinT. It looks like your dealership didn't play nice with this. I would argue with them that other dealers are doing for buyers. I hope they are not submitting it for themselves to get 2K, darn crooks! I on the other hand got screwed due to price increase that made it on the sticker.

Anyone else get a green dot in their status? Know what it might mean?

This looks like there were prior attempts, the current effort appears to be a subordinate driver which must be approved by the primary account, if you no longer have access to that account, then you may need to start from scratch.
