2022 Lightning Pro, 6/3 blend date
Shouldn't expect any activity on my actual blend date (today) right? Mods take at least 24 hrs to pop?

Seeing all these deliveries arrive earlier than expected has me anxious as hell.

Mods had been popping as early as 24 hours. However last Tuesday 5/24 mods quit popping for the new builds until last night. So back to 8 days or more. I was getting worried, but seems things are back on track. You might need to prepare for a bit of a wait.

The 5/23 build week also experienced a pause in showing a Production status, several just updated on 6/2, so several segments along the line paused to prevent overloading down stream

The popping of late is taking 7-10 days from the Blend date, if the previous build weeks are an example.

So, I'm expecting next week we may see some from our group popping.

Curious whether people think we’ll have our cars within 2 months. I’m in SoCal and had a blend date of today. Rate lock on my loan through late July, so really hope it arrives before then.

Oh yeah. It should be only like a month from your blend date to delivery. We're seeing the 5/9 group taking delivery already and it's been like 3 weeks for them. I was hoping for end of June but you should have it by end of July no problem.

A chart to support my casual observation, this is the number of days gap between designated blend day and the recorded "Production" date, lately it's been longer ~10 or so days, but I think this will improve once the back log is cleared.

BTW, I will be on a MC ride this morning through afternoon, I will catch up with all the build week threads later today!!

What do you mean? They paused the production line itself or that they just paused certain post production software stuff?

My blend date was 5/23 and electronics didn’t show as active until 6/2. The belief is they prioritized getting finished trucks shipped at the expense of the 5/23 build week trucks.

That is what I think, but don't know for sure, either slowed to crawl or paused while they got a head start on revisions & shipping

Was at my dealer yesterday and in their system they showed my Pro at the factory and built on 6/1. They mentioned that they sometimes see “body shop” in there for the bed liner, but nothing indicating that has happened yet. They did say that there would be a message in the system if they were short on chips for the unit, and luckily none of that appears to be the case. Modules still don’t show up on my end though. Maybe in a week or two it will be here.

Thanks for the update. Was your blend day on 6/1? Does that typically mean it has been completed?
