I'm sadly tapping out. Now that the finish line is here and I look at the cost and risk I have to overcome the excitement of the past 18 months and look at 2023 and some unknowns like my stock investments and income from slowing business in a down market. Timing just was not right for me.

Excited for everyone else though and will stay on the site to rejoice as you all take ownership of your long awaited Lightnings.

PS: if you know someone that wants a Lightning but could not get an order in, I may follow through with purchase in early Jan and sell at current MSRP. I did list it on the site marketplace 4 sale.

This is a bummer, the truck now shows shipped this morning!

Looks like mine finally changed to Built. They had said Wednesday it was but looks like they were mistaken while it was on chip hold. No delivery ETA but it's via truck to Alabama so can't imagine it'll take too long.

Hello! I'm late to join this group but I just submitted my form. Mine is a Carbonized Grey Metallic Pro (SR) with Max Trailer Tow Pkg and 9.6kW Pro Power Onboard.
Reserved on 05/20/21
Deferred on 02/17/22 (invited to order but Pro trim was sold out)
Ordered on 08/12/22
Build week 12/19
Shows 'built' as of 12/31
Estimated delivery between 1/24 and 1/30.

Since my order stems from a deferred reservation I will have the 'customer satisfaction private offer (7k) applied to my purchase. I placed my order before the additional price hikes went into effect. My dealer has not been 100% clear about whether my price will be locked at the MSRP at the time of order, but did tell me that they don't add ADMs and that the order price is typically what gets invoiced. Keeping my fingers crossed that it all goes smoothly.

Mine also now shows Built 12/31. Will ask for an updated ship estimate tomorrow, was still on Ramp 51 last I checked.

Spoke with a rep, delivery estimate slipped from 1/15-1/21 to 1/23-1/29, but they confirmed it is at least now in transit. Nothing yet on the VIN search from United Road, seemingly going convoy the whole way.

Does the PALSAPP devtool trick still work?

Train ride to Selkirk New York, then convoy to your dealer

Finally seeing module info populated as of today. Pretty excited. I’m in western PA, so hopefully delivery before the end of the month.

Talked to Customer service this morning, my Lightning is on railcar NKCR007384 currently in New Boston, MI, with a delivery date of Jan 13-19.

Got an email from Ford at 1:10 PM EST that my truck is built and confirmed delivery dates. VIN finally shows up on the Ford reservation page but truck still shows as "In Production" on top timeline despite the Order Status section showing built with a delivery estimate. What a mess.

Latest update: Ford chat just advised that my F150 Lightning is built with an estimated delivery date of 01-11-2023 to 01-17-2023

Ford tracker now shows Built 12-31-2022 and Shipped status

12-21-2022 blend date, modules populated 12-23-2022, in production date 12-23-2022 shows on Ford tracker, tear tag populated 12-26-2022


2023 F150 Lightning build: Lariat ER, Iconic Silver, power deployable running boards (only add on)

Received an email overnight that my lightning has shipped. Still showing a 1/25-1/31 arrival which I think is a bit pessimistic for an Alabama delivery. At least it's on the move!
