So I am going a little crazy... what the heck is the financing that I can get ahead of and order now? Seriously, I can't remember 
The Ford financing.

You and me both. We are the last 2 in the 6/6 group. Mine went into production 6/18Unfortunately, no. Still stuck "in production". I'm well aware of all the different ways to track as I'm a day 1 Bronco reservation holder that just got my Bronco a couple of months ago. Unfortunately, it looks like my lightning is just stuck.

I received the shipped notification that on July 13th it was loaded on a Canadian National Railway railcar. I have not had any updates until today where I got this from my dealer. It has been transferred to Union Pacific Railroad. No updates after July 16th. I am hopeful that it is not still in West Chicago.

You still may very well get yours to the dealer before others as logistically your not to many stops from Dearborn.

I wish. I'm in Vancouver (2.5 hours north of Seattle). 2,500 miles from Dearborn. I'll likely be getting It after many in the 8/1 group?

Now that your rail car has transferred to UP, you probably won’t see any more location updates on your VVR after it leaves the IHB Blue Island (IL) Rail Yard until it arrives at the final destination rail yard. Rely on UP for your most up-to-date locaion info until them?I received the shipped notification that on July 13th it was loaded on a Canadian National Railway railcar.

Updated delivery ETA moving to 7/21-7/27 up from 8/2-8/7?
My truck is staged in United Logistics yard at Portland’s (OR) Terminal 6 with 18 other vehicles bound for my dealer…I’m #8 in the queue. The local UL scheduler told me earlier today he hoped to have my truck at the dealer by the end of the weekend.
I viewed this update this evening on my account webpage…Ford trackers have not updated yet…..
@TaxmanHog , I submitted a tracker change form…..

My guess was right yesterday. Got up this morning and checked Order Track and shows "delivered". Also had an email from Ford with the following:
If they don't call me by noon I'll make a visit to them.
This is some information I've deciphered for folks still waiting. The pic of my truck coming off the assembly line was taken July 4th(I'm sure those union workers were getting holiday pay). So, took approximately 16 days to make it to Houston from the Rouge Plant. Also, tried to activate Ford Pass and got an error to try again. I expect to be driving at least by Saturday depending on PDI.
A quick side note. I traded in my Mach-E first edition last month. I put 18,000 miles on it in one year and two weeks. I bought it for 61K, dealer gave me 59K trade in and sold it for 65K! I'll be saving around 3K in sales tax on the Lightning. I've been driving my Roush P-51 Mustang since then (love that car) but the Lightning will be my daily driver.

Just got Built email.
"Congratulations your lightning has been built. It was a very difficult labor, the vehicle was Breached and we had to do a QC-Section on it. "
" The vehicle was sent off-site to a Specialist for observation and intervention. "
" We've been informed your Lightning made a full recovery and is being released from the ICU and is preparing to be transported. "
" While the other Lightnings Born on the same day have been released weeks ago, we have full confidence your 6/6 Build will integrate with the rest of it's peers.
