Ugh, don’t go peruse other build week threads… 7/25 weekers are receiving shipped status. Can’t imagine how frustrated the April and May stragglers must be.
That's the thing i don't understand and doesn't make sense. If they are able to ship later built trucks, something is off when they keep telling me they are waiting for a carrier. That's BS. Then they shouldn't be able to ship any other vehicles. I am only 9 hours driving away from the factory. Give me a break.

I’m telling you, it’s the raccoon poo! That or the Raptor thieves are stealing parts of our trucks too

as an original 5/30 build week owner, who was later shoved no less than 6 different times for over 8 additional build weeks to finally a 7/29 blend day(birthday)... I don't know that would I have rather had my truck built back in late May/early June, and have it 'sit' for two months or more, or to have had to wait over 8 more weeks to just have it 'built'... it's a coin toss. It's aggravating either way. Those others who didn't even ORDER until June, and have already received their Lightning, should be blessing their thankful stars, and God.

I'm not sure where "Junction Point" IL is but it would seem that your Lightning has made it about 300 or 400 miles further than my Lightning which also "Shipped" on 7/29. Mine is still sitting on the loading ramp in Dearborn. I'm still waiting to get a railcar number.

My truck also shipped on 7/29 and is headed to San Diego. Our trucks must be on the same train. Mine is being delivered to La Mesa.

Oh sweet. Same dealer perhaps. Are you tracking the train directly? I don't yet have any of that information.

Officially "built, awaiting shipment" with a revised ETA a bit sooner; 8/17-8/23. Nothing on the United Road website yet, but still very encouraging progress.
Finally the last one from our group to get “built” status. Congratulations.

Congrats!

OrderTrack.app is now telling me mine is "In Transit", but none of the official trackers show anything. No e-mails from Ford yet--including baby pictures.

I'm wondering if we won't be on the same train; it would have to pass right through St. Louis to get to Oklahoma.

Has anyone in this week received their charge station pro?
Yes, mine is at the installer, SunRun subcontractor who is supposed to do the bidirectional home integration system at our Florida place. He's still waiting on the two other boxes and has to upgrade the house from 150 amp to 200 amp, so the install will be $11.8k. They shipped directly to my home, but no one was there for two FedEx attempts, so I got the contractor to pick it up at the Boca Raton FedEx depot.
