2023 F150 Lightning XLT
Pro : Autumn '23
XLT : Autumn '22
Lariat : Autumn '22
Platinum : Autumn '22

Wouldn't Autumn '23 be a 2024 model?

On order page it said certain options could push delivery to Autumn ‘23. Not sure what that entails.
I didn't order the spray in bed-liner in case it was that.

But if they don't actually build them until Autumn '23, even Ford doesn't probably know what could be a problem then.

Is the "private offer" showing anywhere?
After building the truck but before putting down the $500, there was some fine print that said:

As a reservation holder who chose to extend your reservation this year, you are eligible for unique private savings that will ensure your ordered price reflects 22MY pricing. Savings will be reflected at the time your vehicle is purchased but will not be visible to you as you order online. Please confirm with your dealer for final eligibility and offer amount

Yes I passed on spray in bed-liner for that reason. Maybe it is just a tactic to promote the higher margin XLT and once this wave passes they will bump deliveries up

I believe it says at the top of the build-and-price tool after you select the Pro: "The choice of certain options could push delivery beyond autumn 2023" (emphasis added).

Then, at the bottom, it says: " ESTIMATED DELIVERY IN AUTUMN 2023" (emphasis in original).

I guess they aren't going to build ANY Pros between October 2022 and October 2023.

There may not even BE any MY2023 Pros if these dates are true.

Maybe they're waiting on LFP batteries, but occam's razor says they're just trying to push people to buy the XLT that is $13k more for $1k worth of stuff... or Lariat/Platinum.

Good catch! Beyond autumn 23 would be disappointing lol

All the trims had that warning about certain options could push delivery to autumn 2023.

Well, put in my order for a Pro, but I probably would have gone XLT if I'd seen that it was going to take an additional year. Oh well-- Here's hoping for the best.

I wonder if switching dealers would affect delivery for Pros that may not be here any time soon anyhow. The dealer I'm stuck with charged me ADM during wave 6. Also maybe the Pro problem is fleet purchases which I heard started again yesterday. Well I don't have a order screen yet anyhow. I may be happy I have a VERY early Silverado Res !!

I checked on my backdoor page
ORDER STATUS BACK DOOR LINK:
https://www.ford.com/buy/manage.html?reservationId=xxxxxxx
(Put your 8 digit reservation number in place x's. Log into your Ford Account.)

It showed the order button working and I started playing with it. I decided to go back to the normal reservation page and check on it again. At that time it showed the Place Order button available.
This takes me to a page that says "It's time to order your F-150" and shows a $39,970 MSRP (hahahah) but the "Place Order" button doesn't work.
