Us 4/25 guys are getting jealous, I hope they’re clearing an aisle to the back where we’re parked.

I hope so for you too. I'm a 5/2 build week and must be parked behind everyone too because I have nothing yet either.

Someone mentioned last week that it was possible these trucks were already on the way and Ford IT Geeks were just slow in updating everyone’s tracker. It’s the same thing as the ICE, I am crossing my fingers that most of us will take delivery in the next 2 weeks.

I just went with NFCU 72 @ 2.79 before rates go up.

NFCU is?

Navy Federal Credit Union, I believe

Thanks. Did not want to assume since I did not recognize the acronym. Here in the DC area, we refer to it as Navy Fed.

I plan to talk to them once I have confidence that I will have my truck in 60 days since I understand they offer a 90 day rate lock.

I honestly feel bad for the folks from April. I don't know why they would do something like LIFO if that's what this is actually about. But it's just as crazy as some of the shtuf that went on last summer with the '21s and the infamous Lot 59. If you managed to escape that you were damned lucky. There didn't seem to be any logic at all as to who got a truck and who didn't.

My guess is the vehicles parked in various parking lots and the Dearborn track are getting shipped first. I imagine Ford is having to pay to park some of these trucks in the various parking lots they DON’T own. So it would make financial sense to get those moving first.

Air Force 22 years, retired in 2005. Plan on working at Southwest Research Institute for 22 years...scary that that date is only 5 years away. I need to start training my replacement in 3 years.

My guess, for our builds (i'm a 4/18-week) they are having to go back and patch them. They may have made some change before the ok-to-buy was given which was after our trucks were built. They started shipping any trucks that came off the line with the latest updates. They'll have to roll back around and patch ours and probably test them before shipment release.

At least this is what I am telling my self to help sleep at night lol.

I was staying silent as I didn't want to lose access...

Yesterday afternoon my account was activated!

The truck had about 85% battery when I received access and was 77% after whatever was done with it. The doors were opened many times and it looks like truck was touched mid-day, about 6 pm, and then 630am today.

That being said I just got this alert this morning

My hope is they were doing a final inspection and loading it up! Fingers crossed!

Correct!
