Confirmed Lightning "Scheduled for Production" dates?

[sotek2345]

Is that why there are all those MMEs on 5 month "chip hold"?

From my understanding yes - Mach-e's still have those low tech chips for power / heated seats, heated steering wheel, power mirrors, headlights, etc.

Seen this on another forum, I'm not sure if Zach is a member here but it looks like his Lightning-XLT is now scheduled!!! Note order date was 1/26/22

It's not scheduled. The only Lightning scheduled at that dealer is it's mannequin.

Have they scheduled any customer trucks or is it just mannequins? My recollection is that earlier this week you said it would be a few weeks Before Ford started scheduling customer retail orders.

Interesting, so you believe this is a photoshopped image?
Any possibility they are actually queuing up retail builds?
This does not suggest it's in production just scheduled

I don't know when exactly customer orders will be scheduled. I can only say that every dealer I've checked only has one Lightning scheduled to the week, and they are all mannequins.

To be scheduled, it has to have a VIN. No dealer I've looked into, including his, has a Lightning with a VIN that isn't a mannequin. I don't know if it's photoshopped or if the page is inaccurate. I only know his isn't scheduled yet.

LOL, yes that's the ranking opinion on other forum/threads.

Does anyone have insight on priority codes? I tried adding max tow on my reservation and was told that I couldn’t due to being in priority 1 for scheduling. They mentioned an April date, but that’s all I know. Apparently you can’t modify your order on any priority 1-9 orders.

Yes, anything 1-9 can't be changed. If the system has you at a 1, your order should be scheduled soon. Probably in the next couple of weeks. Best day to check with your dealer will be Friday since new orders are usually scheduled on Thursdays.

That is great news for Vbaker4444, mine was priority 19 when it was submitted on WBDO, does the value change as circumstances adjust, due to commodity scheduling etc.?

Order previews default to 19. Sales managers will usually change priority and order numbers when the final order is officially submitted.

Special orders are classified between 10 and 19 from your dealer. Anything lower than that will be either from the ordering system moving your order to be scheduled or from somebody higher up in the food chain manipulating the numbers, such as a zone manager getting a replacement unit scheduled faster than waiting for allocation.

I was a priority 19 on that as well. My guess is that it can change. I’m less than two hours from the rouge factory and going through a small dealer. Maybe that helps?
