@NewfoundlandLightning is still waiting for a build week assignment!!
My build week is scheduled for Sept 5th week.

@RonB I hope they are not delaying yours until mines ready…I don’t expect to see mine until late October. I haven’t seen one in NL yet, you’re likely going to be one of the first!

New delivery window: 8/19 to 8/25. It took a chat session to get the new dates. After my last window expired, my "reservations and order" page went blank and didn't list any date.

Built 6/30, still sitting at the factory.

Mine was through production around the same date, then delayed due to "incomplete parts for main battery" - sat for several weeks in "Lot 51". Finally in transport. Train to Port of Wilmington, then transport to Fred Beans Ford in Doylestown. Delivery showing 8/31 - 9/6.

Took delivery yesterday @Granger Ford . Perfect delivery experience and $1,000 under MSRP! If you have not ordered yet, move your reservation as soon as you get the invite if your dealer is messing with you.

Thanks everyone in this thread for the moral support and information. Turns out my truck was selected for additional testing and that's why it took so long 'in production. @TaxmanHog you're amazing. Keep up the good work.

My truck is stuck "on hold" at the Ford Wilmington Ramp, which is where the train drops the vehicle and awaits transport to the dealer. I had to "encourage" my sales guy to investigate, I provided him with all the shipping details, and he has informed me it appears as though "the battery is dead". Waiting for a Ford Corporate Rep to intervene (I guess).

According to a corporate ford rep a few weeks ago my truck was stored on ramp 51 due to "incomplete battery issues". That was the reason for a 6 week delay at that time.

I purchase 2-3 fords a year and I have to say this is the most frustrating purchase I have had in years. The salt in the wound is the $5k ADM. Hard to "roll with the punches" when you're paying $5k premium.

Went from thinking I was picking up today to considering bailing on this purchase. I'm not thinned skinned, just pissed off I'm paying $5k over MSRP and having all these issues.

My delivery window has been updated for the eighth time to 9/6 - 9/12. Truck was built 6/30 and released for shipment. In taxman's list of 538 vehicles, the average built to shipped time has been about 9.3 days with a max of 47. Here I am at 63 days and counting 😡

We are on the same wave-length, just thinking about your status again after doing the AM sweep.
