✅ 5/2 Lightning Build Week Group

Finally my Truck is one the move. Spoke with Ford chat and it's currently in Gibson, IN.

A couple of things to note. I had access to the Online Ford Tracker with no issues since the last time (May 30th) my status was updated. Yesterday and this morning I could not log on at all, which prompted me to contact Ford Chat. Its getting closer!

We have been watching your vin in the auto trader research, I noticed the tracker update to shipped on 6/1, (action date presumed 5/31, they do not and never will list it), you may have gotten an email just prior to or on 5/31.

At this point Ron will be watching it for Delivered to Dealer status in the narrative.
Good luck seeing your truck soon!!!

Yeah, I think Fords tracker is down but every time it goes down I always think it’s because the vehicle is at the dealership or something… Maybe I’ll check one that is just being built to confirm if it’s just mine or everyone’s

The tracker goes down for a few hours early Sunday morning for maintenance.
I had to delay my 0630 research until I got home from breakfast run.

Also on rare occasions, a VIN goes MIA, and is not searchable for several days, don't know why but it pops up eventually.

Yep, just saw that it seems to only be my order. So it’s not a sight wide thing. Fingers crossed but I have also learned many lessons in patience through this experience. Mostly, “don’t get your hopes up”. It was 2 days ago it was in mid-western Montana but there is a lot of land between there and here. Not many stations but a lot of ground to cover…

My truck got delivered to the railyard on June 9th and yet it now shows back in production the next morning after it was delivered to the railyard. Maybe it will update when it hopefully gets to the dealer in the next couple of days.

See… and now it’s back to just “shipped” again. No changes. I have a trip coming up this next weekend and would prefer to not pay for gas. Come on Ford!

The movement of the rail cars is fascinating. My truck was placed on a rail car and started moving last Thursday. Since then it’s moved every direction, but not as west (towards California) as I would hope lol (I can still see it on FordPass). It moved back East today just south of Chicago where it has been moving between rail yards since Friday.

Just strange that it’s kinda moving “backwards” though I’m sure there’s a reason. I’ll be happy to get it before the July 1-7 estimated arrival date.

My railcar was “Constructively Placed” this morning at the destination (Mira Loma).

Just got off the line with Ford Chat. My truck is built but with no delivery ETA, pending a "micro chip hold"... So I guess that shortage rumor is accurate and can affect builds all the way back to early May, seeing as my blend was 5/5.

Does your tracker show "built" or are you still "in production?"

My truck has been sitting in the railyard in Mesquite since Thursday. Hopefully my dealer's sales manager gets it delivered tomorrow after he called the yard today to get it expedited.
