I've been told dealer should get it this Monday finally. Am I the last one?

So…did it happen today?

No, still waiting for the call.

My truck is still in Mira Loma, CA, about 1 hour from here. Just got an updated email from Ford:

"To ensure your complete satisfaction, we will require additional time before your 2022 F-150 Lightning LARIAT is delivered to North County Ford. Your vehicle’s previous estimated delivery range of August 11, 2022, and August 17, 2022, has been updated to between August 22, 2022, and August 28, 2022."

So it looks like I'll just barely make the cutoff for the $750 Clean Fuel Reward POS rebate, which goes to $0 on Sept 1. When I got my Mach-E, I made cut-off from it dropping from $1,500 to $750 by just 1 day.

The constant pushing back of dates is maddening!
For whatever it's worth, you probably aren't eligible for the $750 anyways (I found out)...as there is an 8500 Lb weight cap for that rebate...and the Lariat XR is 8550 lbs.
I feel your pain with the wait, it's excruciating. Fingers crossed that it miraculously shows up unannounced.

Nothing like that rail yard wait.

Not sure what exactly the holdup is. I've seen the dates change at least a dozen times since it shipped 7/30.

Anyone know who I can call or reach out to aside from my dealer, who has no idea what is going on? I believe this is the 11th delivery estimate date change so far and counting. I was originally quoted late July at one point.

Update: my truck has been sitting at a ramp in Mira Loma, California, just 1 hour from my dealer, since 8/14. There is an ongoing dispute between my dealer and the carrier so my truck is being held hostage at this point. No idea when there will be a resolution. I expect the estimated delivery dates to continue to get bumped out each week. Hopefully it has been sitting for 4 months with an SOC around 50% but who knows.

Nice to see your dealer care enough about their customer not to take the high road with the carrier on this one and get you your truck. They can duke it out with the carrier later.

One of the very first Lightnings made, still not delivered. Sorry to see this.
