My lightning has place in line number 85, so I’m pretty sure it’s already built. Update is lagging
It has to be. I was one of the last of the week, literally the last shift and I was finished building by last Thursday.

I suppose there might be part shortages but I don’t think I’ve seen any recent hold ups.

My wife’s Mach E showed up out of nowhere. Built was week 7/18 and on 17th I got email it already got shipped. I can’t believe mustang will be here before my lightning

I hope some updates will show up on Monday.
Btw, how you guys finance your trucks? I got 3.25% 72 months. Past 5-6 years I was always at close to 0% APR leasing. 3.25% seams to be high. I know it’s good rate, but mustang is at 2.49% 72 months

The interest rate shave been climbing. Expecting another rate hike this Wed.

The best ones I could find were from credit unions.

- Clean Energy CU: 2.99% @ 60mo. 45 days automatic lock from the day of application to take delivery.

- Parsons CU: 2.19% @ 60 mo. I just applied and got approved but idk what the lock is yet until tomorrow.

My fellow 7/11 convenience store enthusiasts, I have been informed of a new tool by @V8BoatBuilder

United Road is the delivery coordinator for Ford.

Full load theory busted!

Had some time to kill, so I started running VINs from my dealership on https://www.unitedroad.com/delivery-receipt
I ran my vin through that tool and got a load number! I’m told the info turns into a hyperlink once my dealer takes delivery.

What I still have to figure out is what the load number means. Does it mean a shipment order has been created? Does it mean it’s off the rail? If there’s an assigned road number I have to assume that it’s at least scheduled for delivery, right?

Edit: Ran a vin from my dealer. The dealer name is a dead link for my truck but is a live link showing delivered once it gets to the dealership. Turns out they received another F-150L just several days ago.

Your load will show inactive until it arrives in the local rail yard. Then it will list it as pending pickup. I use that tool everyday at work.

Do you know if this tool is prone to errors? for example the VIN I have is 1FTVW1EL1NWG05940 however, this tool says its headed to Malloy Ford in VA which is not my dealer or even my state.

Wow, your truck will eventually head to the Brookfield/Spencer rail yard, but by the looks of that output, there might not be a hot shot/18-wheeler to haul you to NH, I hope they straighten it out by shipping time.
