Convoy! Long trip from Dearborn to Northern NJ.
At 200 MPH the Bullet Train will have your truck delivered in three hours..... lol Then the railyard will be another hold-up.

My truck was just dropped off at the dealer. 11:03 PM! It took less than 2 days from factory to my dealer in northern NJ.

Being able to track the truck was amazing. I think Ford should activate this for everyone.

Should I be pissed that my dealer has not called me yet? I was not expecting to pick the truck up today, but at least expected a call.

I hope I do not see the dealer driving it a lot. It was shipped with 26 miles.

How about this ! I email the dealer yesterday about my delivery status and all the dealer can tell me is Congrats your Truck went from Production to Built and that Ford is having shipping problems. The dealer is well aware I have not seen or driven the Lightning so today just out of curiosity I turn into the dealership and follow the exact Lariat with the same Atlas Blue exterior out of the dealership onto the service rd. I assume it's not my truck, but you would think out of Professional courtesy they would let me know they received a mannequin. Hamtech I feel your pain

I'd be going back after hours and checking the VIN.

I've been stalking my dealership because I don't trust them either. I slipped and told salesman about my rate lock and I'm worried they trying to delay til it expires. Can a dealer have any control over delaying a truck delivery?

Still have not received my truck. Dealer has been giving me the runaround.

I was told because the sale manager is the one who put the order in only they can sign off on the delivery. Manager is on vacation.

I also am noticing that the dealer keeps trying to charge my truck but it keeps flipping an error that it was unplugged accidentally.

Picked up the truck last night.

I had several issues

1. Trailer backup module was missing. Dealer did not know this was supposed to be included. I pointed out that without either the sticker of module the pro trailer assist is useless.

2. Trim on the center counsel around the backseat vents had paint issues.
