✅ 9/05 Lightning Build Week Group

Very much a first world problem, but it feels weird not to be refreshing and checking trackers.

Nothing to do now but wait for the call from the dealer.

Don't you worry, I'm refreshing enough to keep the Ford servers just as busy. They won't even notice you're missing.

UUUUGGGGGHHHH!!!!!

I just checked https://www.ford.com/buy/manage.html and my delivery ETA changed from 9/24-30 to 10/15-21 -- a THREE WEEK slip!

Same thing happened to me but I am in build week 8/29.

Not cool. Not cool at all.

This is the fifth different ETA I’ve had, so maybe it will change again to a sooner time window

That signature at the bottom is getting out of control.

Haha! I agree. It’s the only place I’ve kept track of the madness though

Where are you all seeing your ETAs? Is this from reaching out via the chat?

I’ve been in production for 28 days now.

Once shipped, it shows up in the shop.ford.ca tracker. You can also see it under "orders and reservations" on the main ford site.

I got a “shipped” email from Ford with an estimated time window. I’m guessing everyone gets that. Not following the other stuff.

Have @kab truck shipped yet though ? I think you can see the ETA on the main / order management site once the truck is built.
Sucks that @kab is pushed out 3 weeks, any idea what caused it ?

Ugh no MD buddy, bad times! I thought you had shipped as well, or is it shipped and they can still just slip to whatever during that time? I suspect that means mine can do the same thing.

I've been waiting on ordering a few things with 30 day return windows so that I could install and make sure everything is right, so balancing their ship times with my hoped delivery window....

I just called Ford Marketing (800-334-4375) because that seems to be a quick way to talk to someone about status. The lady I spoke with said she had no ETA for me. In fact, I think she said she still saw me as "In Production," not even "Built" yet (which doesn't match my online status or what chat has told me). But she said that what she has been seeing lately is that it has been taking 1-2 months from In Production date until delivery. Yowzers! She was super friendly, but I didn't like anything she told me.

Here's a snapshot of how that "1-2 months" has played out recently for folks on the spreadsheet:

@Ian and I both hit Built status a day apart and have trucks ready to be picked up by a convoy to head to Maryland (our dealers are about 40 minute drive from each other). I wonder if his ETA slipped out, too?

Since I went In Production 9/14, that makes 10/15-21 just over the line beyond 1 month...but I don't like it. haha
