Heads up, I just heard back from my local dealer and was told that spray in bedliners are delaying builds and asked me if I can remove it and do it later.

It will be an additional week or more as they ramp up, personally I never ordered it in the first place, and might get it done locally.

Happy my dealer is quick with communication on these things! If anyone else has one on their build, maybe try to reach out and remove it.

I got bumped to 6/6, let me update my infoHere is an early view of the sequencing values, all the yellow cells (BED LINERS) are the original sequence values before a revision is made in the next 24-48 hours when they will be given another group of sequencing values. Only showing those who have provided feedback, I'll update if others desire to share.
BTW, @Brotato check your ford.com order, did you get booted to another build week?
Your sticker was not visible when I checked !!!!!!

I think this may be true for ICE F-150's. Doesn't seem to be a problem for Lightning's. Ford seems to be making sure that all scheduled Lightnings get built without constraint.
It will add a day or two to the build time as the bed liner is applied in a different facility.

Pretty sure that is just generic dealer speak whenever they cannot figure things out.. Blame the spray..
Welcome to my build week, we will be scheduled a day for certain next week!!

Ok. Just curious. Am trying to decide as I want a fun color but unique to the lightning...just seems a bit challenging given the current pallet to choose from. I need to see them in person I guess.

I settled on Iced Blue Silver and am going to do some Blue circuit trace graphics to make it pop. Maybe mix some green and black in too - not sure yet.

Did you see the iced blue silver in person to decide on it? I see the smoked blue quarts is unique to the lariat but yeah the iced blue silver kinda resembles lightning and I get why ford is offering that one. I just think they need some two tone colors combos or something...some kinda pizzaz to add to the truck for color, so will be interesting to see what you do...
Please post what you end up doing as I would be interested to see that.

Will absolutely post it! Don't have a build date yet so it could be awhile.
I didn't see the color on an F150 but my local dealer had a couple Escapes in stock that were Iced blue silver and it sold me. Still wish we had a stronger color (green would be awesome), but it is what it is.

Cool thanks. Well You are further ahead than me. Patiently waiting for the next waves to start to get an invite to order. Tull then, just gonna hang out like all others to see what y'all 1st invitees get in your driveways. In hond sight, am kinda hoping that ford makes improvements to the light ing while waiting to order.
Still this whole thing is exciting! I told my 94 yr old grandad who I have a crown and coke with in the nursing home that I plan to take him for a ride in my future electric f150 when I finally get it.
He says, "I will be looking forward to it...how bout another round of whiskey"..."Cheers!"
