I'm with you. Its so disappointing to see May 16 builds get shipped(I am very happy for them)... Ours have been built for over one month now, and we are "delayed". I am starting to loose all hope now.
My Expedition was built Mar 24, " Chip Hold". ETA Now end of August. I feel like the lightning will be the same :(:(
I'm trying not to have a pity party here but I'm disappointed as well. I imagine the logistics crew is under pressure to deliver as many trucks as possible, so it makes sense to roll the more recent builds directly onto trains/trailers instead of pulling ours off of satellite lots and flashing new software.

I'm optimistic that many of us will see movement this week. Here's a mannequin with a 4/20 Blend and 4/27 Production date that's heading to a dealer that's thirty minutes from my home. Wish they would have put my truck on the same trailer, but oh well 🤷‍♂️

I would love to see if that came up on Fordpass for a few hours and popped off like a few others and mine did on 5/28

How did you pull this one? With just the VIN? I thought there was a way to do it without order number too, but can't find that now- wanted to try and look up some showing up on Cars.com that are theoretically close to me

My Ford pass app is just as lonely as my driveway missing a lightning ⚡.

made good use of my time today - made a temp hookup for the mobile charger while we get further down the order list for the charge station pro.

tomorrow I’ll finish connecting a few additional solar panels i added.

Yes that truck is in our sample, we have the built date as 5/29, but had not seen, even this moment the estimated delivery date, I expect we will see it Wed's morning though, we've got a rhythm going researching this data set.

So every time I check back I don’t see any posts to our build week.
it is a little disappointing to see last week build having notices.

we’re probably parked on ford property where they don’t pay rent. So they’re out fetching everyone else’ from the expensive lots..

on the plus side - there will have been so many delivered when we get ours that people won’t stop and take your time asking question.😃😃😃😃😃

hey. @Ford Motor Company - don’t forget about us.
In our sample dataset, 8 of 28 with shipped dates, 5 were updated on 5/30
Only Nick's truck has been delivered from that batch (that we have visibility on)
They are coming!!!!

Interesting note: this visibility he sent me today - it’s update with delivery eta is dated 5/26
built info on ford tracker 5/29. Might be anecdotal. But interesting 🤔

I got my dealers demo unit's vin and order numer (F001) 1FT6W1EV2NWG01286. It had a 4/08 blend but it's in the same in-production status as mine. Also other than color it's identical to my own.
