Ford F-150 Lightning ✅ 8/29 Lightning Build Week Group F5B3C3AA-BCB2-4872-8C97-BC1D16552EB9

I was able to pick up the truck today and it rides amazing. The hands free worked very well. No upsells and no ADM at Winner Ford in Cherry Hill. The only negative thing I had was that it was charged to 85% and 45 miles when I picked it up. Outside of that the experience was great.

I do have PaaK enabled, and I was able to test and confirm the auto windshield wipers work great. This is my first EV and I couldn’t be more excited!

kick ass... congrats! That sucks that there is 45 miles. So everyone took it for a test drive and floored it? Lame.... I would not be happy about that.

45 miles isn't bad for the chip hold trucks. They are being driven down to Flat Rock then to wherever they ship from.

Ford chat always say you can track your vehicle at https://shop.ford.com/vehicleordertracking Has anyone actually received any tracking information from that site?

That will just tell you the status of your truck..it doesn't tell you where it is.(Location).

It also lags by a couple days....its not useful once you hit shipped status--except to check to see if delivery estimate has changed.

Man... dealer still shows location of Blue Island, Illinois.... the truck has barely moved at all!!! Lame. I guess I should quit looking at it. It's been almost 16 months now so I should be more patient. Still. California is a looooong way from Illinois.

You can't trust the system. My truck still shows that it is in Dearborn and I'm picking it up at my dealer today.

I finally got mine today. They would not sign a purchase agreement or a buyers order for me to send to the parsons. So I had go with their bank of America financing. I plan to refi asap. My dealer also forced their 799 paint and fabric protection.

Least I have my truck.

Brought mine home today. MSRP & a smooth transaction. John North Ford in Emporia Ks. Great to work with. They also have committed to E Elite status. They have the transformer for the DC fast chargers ordered through the utility. The wait is 1 year for the transformers.
