  1. ✅ 6/13 Lightning Build Week Group

    @TaxmanHog @RonB: Quite an amazing story... which I can't divulge in full but my truck sits in my driveway as of 2 o'clock today. As of last Sunday, it had been 80 days sitting there awaiting shipment and, in total frustration, I blasted out emails to four Ford execs complaining and giving them...

    Congratulations! That leaves me as tail-end-charlie in our build week... 79 days and counting ?
  3. ✅ 9/05 Lightning Build Week Group

    Thanks for pointing that out. The last time I looked at my sticker was Aug 3rd and it was Convoy then. I wonder what the significance of the change is. I did always assume it was coming via rail, to Jessup, I think. My Special Order codes also changed, now "M377 D 6B AJ 250 004602 07 29 22"...

    I'll be happy to just get shipped (it's been 73 days since built!) ... and then I can start fretting over delivery! BTW, estimated delivery is now 9/18 to 9/24. Anybody have any suggestions how to "shake the tree" and get these last two 6/13 trucks started to their destinations? I've tweeted...
  5. Delivery Before PDI?

    Preston Ford in Aberdeen. It's been 66 days since it was built and released for shipment.
  6. Delivery Before PDI?

    You think via truck direct to dealer in MD? My dealer suggested it would come via rail to Jessup then truck.
  7. Delivery Before PDI?

    Congrats on getting your truck! Do you know it's route of flight Dearborn to MD? Did it go through Jessup? Fellow Terp wants to know. Tx

    Delivery window changed again, this time an improvement, now 9/2 to 9/8. This is the ninth change since my build date of 6/30. Is that a good sign???
  9. ✅ 6/13 Lightning Build Week Group

    My delivery window has been updated for the eighth time to 9/6 - 9/12. Truck was built 6/30 and released for shipment. In taxman's list of 538 vehicles, the average built to shipped time has been about 9.3 days with a max of 47. Here I am at 63 days and counting ?
  10. Finished installing my charger & generator manual transfer switch [to provide emergency power to my house using 240v 30a plug in the truck bed]

    @FlasherZ, I currently have a mechanical "interconnect" (I think it's called) controlling the source (generator/grid) to a sub-panel with all my essential services. Given the neutral bonding issue, I assume I'll have to replace the interconnect with manual transfer switch that can handle the...
  11. Panel Replacement / Transfer Switch questions

    Any product recommendations for this transfer switch? I already have a subpanel with all my "essential" loads that has a mechanical switch so I would like to avoid the big bucks for one of those Generac HomeLink boxes that I have seen recommended elsewhere. Thanks.
  12. ✅ 6/13 Lightning Build Week Group

    New delivery window: 8/19 to 8/25. It took a chat session to get the new dates. After my last window expired, my "reservations and order" page went blank and didn't list any date. Built 6/30, still sitting at the factory.
  13. 2023 F-150 Lightning Standard Range Increased to 240 Miles; Pro Trailer Hitch Now Available; Order Banks Re-Open With Updated Pricing

    @tommolog also mentioned this in his InsidEVs article yesterday. Presumably heated seats are off the 12V battery, reducing the HVAC load on the big battery. "Currently, F-150 Lightning with the standard range battery has a combined EPA range rating of 230 miles per charge. Ford expects that...

    My delivery window has just moved up... from 8/14-8/20 to 8/9-8/15. Sixth change! I'd like to think this means they have finally found a rail car headed to Maryland but it's probably just an IT glitch. Order Track still says Awaiting Shipment.
  15. ✅ 6/13 Lightning Build Week Group

    It has not been shipped anywhere, still sitting in a parking lot at the factory. My FordPass was never activated so I don't know exactly where.
  16. ✅ 6/13 Lightning Build Week Group

    It's the "New Vehicle Support Team". They were very nice, sympathetic, etc. but couldn't do anything except tell me what I already knew... that it is built and awaiting shipment. They did assure me that there were no issues holding it up just availability of transportation. Blend 6/15, Built...
  17. ✅ 6/13 Lightning Build Week Group

    Delivery window pushed back to 8/14 - 8/20. This is gettin' ridiculous ?
  18. ✅ 6/13 Lightning Build Week Group

    Delivery window moved to 8/2 to 8/8. Built 6/30, still no shipped email. Arggh!
  19. ✅ 6/13 Lightning Build Week Group

    Mine got bumped also: 7/23 to 7/29. Was 14 to 20. Built 6/30.
  20. ✅ 6/13 Lightning Build Week Group

    My delivery window has changed back to 7/14-7/20, where it was in original Built email. Blend 6/15, built 6/30. Still no Shipped email.
