19 150 lariat, 22 lightning lariat blend 4/18/22
Another day. Next up 83.
Today added 5.6 miles, now 96. 3 weeks, 3 different parking lots.
no updates: ford account, Ford tracker, tracker app,. expired eta

doesn't seem like this is the lot where they leave the truck to sleep.

I think I might beat the my23 trucks.

We are both in this for the long haul apparently. I just found out that my truck didn't ship over the weekend like it was supposed to. I don't know why yet, but hopefully we will both get some resolve soon.

It has to be fairly frustrating watching your truck being driven around and not actually going anywhere. And it sucks knowing we can't do anything but wait because there's no options to go buy one off of a lot somewhere.

I can’t believe our experiences are just this crazy.
I think I’ve had 8 or 9 ford products. As products go very few problems.
but this roll out has been just a little messy for some of us.
Mainly seems like just a communication issue-which is hard to fathom when they have so many engineers of all skills within this multi national corporation.
but that only gets a us my favorite gift - a big bag of nothing.

I've ordered 4 For vehicles not counting this one. I ordered my 21 Ford in January of 2021 and I took delivery on March 27th. Now I've gone 2 months and 2 days since it came off the assembly line. It's making no sense what is going on now. This is not the same Ford from 18 months ago.

And then we somehow have a dealer demo, built 7/8 while mine was built 6/25.. and it shipped before me? LOL. That's insane... they're going to the same damn place and I am currently at ramp 58 waiting to get loaded up.. same place the demo went to, and they skip my truck and ship the demo instead.

It's so comically bad you have to laugh.

FordPass won't allow me to activate - guess I'm spared the anger that comes with @Ford Motor Company amassing miles on the odometer as they play hide 'n seek with my vehicle.

Hey, but doesn't Farley look grand on all his celebrity appearances - really is what matters!

Ford, Farley, and the rest of the Ford gang are totally on my shit list at this point. I was disappointed when they accidentally mis shipped my truck, but now I'm angry because they don't seem at all like they care to correct their screw up. Instead they would rather just drag me along and you with me now.

Someone denied my one month pending request at 4pm.
Well maybe that means progress towards shipping.
- now you go back to watching paint dry.

I have had mine denied twice in the past couple weeks. Each time I think this is the time I finally get loaded into a railcar only to realize that it never was. I'm only 8 days from start of delivery window and as of yesterday it's still sitting on a lot.

The last time I called the Ford information line was last week and the operator parroted the same old "Your truck is in Production and waiting for some kind of signoff". She went onto to say that I should get my truck this Summer. Comforting to know my truck will arrive by September 22 just in time for others to already be driving 2023's. I've tweeted Farley and Levine and neither of them have the balls to answer my Tweet.
