Congratulations! That's exciting - I think that makes you officially the first in our build week group to take delivery. Please provide pictures - I'd love to see it. The red would have been my choice but it's really my husband's truck ;). I'll bet yours is a beauty!

Here is a couple of pics picking up the truck Thursday night at the dealer.
The options I got were the technology tow package, Max Tow and foldable rear seat storage. Would have liked to gotten PAK and Blue Cruise, but that would have thrown me over the 80K threshold.

Dealership in Houston called this morning. My Lightning is on the lot and will be ready in a few days
Congratulations, does your tracker online show that it is at the dealer? I was wondering how accurate that part will be, just in case lol.

Awesome to see deliveries happen for our build week! Congrats to everyone on their sweet new rides! My truck's railcar departed North Platte, NE this afternoon and is looking on schedule for drop-off on Monday.

Now I'm just trying to get my dealer to provide the final purchase price via email to help avoid any unexpected ADM... no luck yet ;)

Just curious to see how many miles are on your truck when you take delivery from our build week. Mine had 43. It was only at the dealer for 24 hours, so I don't think they drove it that much. In the Fordpass it looks like they drove it 2 tens and then charged it. And then repeated that. It was pretty bad weather over Christmas and with a build date of 12/27 seems like it would have been hard to do that much driving at the factory.

To my fellow Bay Area crew, is Ford still showing your trucks at Junction Point, Blue Island, IL? I originally got rail car Info, but now Ford chat and my dealership show it stuck there with no rail info.

Hi anthafied, I am actually in the 12/05 build group. My built date is 12/20 and shipped 12/22, but I haven't received any email and no delivery estimate. I am in East Bay and have the same exact status as yours. I guess maybe our trucks are in the same train...

That's odd. What are they doing to it? Mine was ready within an hour or two of delivered at the dealer but I couldn't pick it up until next day.
