You already put "pen to paper" in regards to price when you checked the box prior to submitting your order. You have a lot of strength if the dealership tries to play games with an ADM not listed in your order.

My concern is with the ridiculous documentation fees. In my state, New Jersey, dealerships hide behind a "disparate treatment" defense. As a customer it is hard to challenge unless you can prove the fee is not universally applied.

I have called my dealership several times and spoken to three different sales agents using a blocked number asking a generic question about their documentation fee. I have lots of ammunition and a paid off law school loan to smack them in the face with.

Great minds think alike.
When I called the dealership to accept and process the online order, we worked together so that they filled out the "official" Motor Vehicle Purchase Agreement (It's a Ford dealer form) which is signed by the sales manager to lock everything in, including doc fees, etc.

Got bumped to week Of 5/16 today.
How were you notified?

I recall having seen people in the early build dates that had their days pushed back and then pushed forward.

Surprised the Owner’s manual is not posted yet in the Ford Pass app.

Some features are the same as the ICE truck, but I am curious about all the unique features.

I have see. the truck twice and got to literally kick the tires at the NYC Auto Show. Now I want to read about the boring stuff such as adjusting the auto high beams.

I am regretting agreeing with my wife that this would be her truck.

Asked the below question about access to the owner’s manual during tonight’s webcast. Sorry for the bad screen grab.

In calling Ford about the HIS from SUnRun process, I asked the Lightning Team there (Kara, I think, who is very nice BTW) about estimated delivery dates no build and she said that from build date to ship is 2-7 days and shipping is between 12-28 days. Here is hoping we all have our truck before the first week of June for summer ;):cool:

Today is hopefully our big day. Already checked the tracker even though I knew there would just be disappointment.
Save yourself some angst, try tonight after 2200 hours [EDT]

I couldn’t resist checking before 10PM.

I was shocked to see My progress advanced to in production in the tracker. Sticker is not accessible yet.

Looking forward to 10PM.

Mine moved into production today too! No window sticker yet either so I will try tonight if I am awake or in the morning. However SunRun did call me today. They told me today was the first day for them to call Ford customers and to bear with him as this is all new to them. Actually the first person on the phone thought I called them and after I assured her that they indeed did call me, they got me to the right person.
