I think it's the SR rather than the trim because there don't seem to be any Lariat SRs reported. But then no XLT ER's either...however very small sample set on those.
I'll have to go check out the spreadsheet, but did anyone order a Lariat SR? Maybe a few were ordered, but that combination was hard to swallow money wise. The $10K upgrade on the Lariat was some of the best money spent when moving between trims - you got the bigger battery and all of the options between the two Lariat packages.

Could you order the Lariat SR with a moonroof? I’m thinking now the difference could be the moonroof. If every order scheduled has the moonroof it could be that’s a change in the body so they’ll run through all those and then switch to the solid roof body (which coincidentally is also the less profitable trim).

Given the early distribution of dates 4/11 , 4/18 and 5/2 have 1 or 2 builds and then 5/9(9), 5/16(7) and 5/25 (6) have at least 3x more builds.

So the first month they'll be ramping up and then turn it up the next month. No Big surprise there. Of course there may be mannequins sprinkled in there as well.

Well I'd like to thank the rich folks for having theirs built first and letting their trucks be the test dummies for the assembly like while they work out the glitch's. That way we poor folks have quality Pro and XLT builds.

Sorry lol.. had to make my jealous self feel better about not getting scheduled yet.

I sincerely hope all ur builds come out great though. Kinda glad mine isn't first up in line so I can get after July 1st for IL EV credit ...just hope it isn't delayed too long.

My build is scheduled for 4/18, does anyone have a general idea how long after the build process starts before the truck is delivered? My dealer said hopefully at some point in June, but I was thinking surely it won't take that long, maybe May? Thanks in advance.

Nope, need to step up to an ER

Maybe the early builds will be double and checked for quality before shipping, so Ford doesn’t get bad press when they hit the streets. Then they can ramp to high production.

About 2 weeks later if there are no delays, at least that’s how it was with my ICE coming from Dearborn to California.

This news really made my day. I reserved on 7/24. I'm around #120k. But reading all of you all unexpectedly receiving build dates, I happy for you all.

It's funny. I debated reserving at the announcement, as I just placed an order for a hybrid F150 on 5/1. I figured why would I order a second truck right after my first. Well, I am still waiting for my F150 to be scheduled (10 months). Had I followed through with my initial impulse to reserve, I might have been one of you all getting a new truck built before the hybrid even gets scheduled.

I hope to see more reports today from folks, concentrated in this thread so that I can update my stand-alone tracker.

Note, I have captured several of you folks who never registered in either the Reservations list or the Order list, at this point kind of moot to input a record on reservations, but if you could please create your record in LIGHTNING ORDERS!

Those who already have a record, update it with your ESTIMATED BUILD DATE

* Lightning Change Request Form
<-- Link to submit edit request for your submitted order info.

At the moment about 20% of the reported ORDERS now have Scheduled build dates, the trend continues to be Platinum's and Lariat-ER's.

55% have the Max Tow Package.
