Are the numbers available yet? (Will they ever be?)
They may not be available right now, but they will eventually release the numbers as it is very relevant to their share holders. Likely at the end of their fiscal quarter

It isn't scientific and they are not necessarily produced in numeric order, but you might get an idea based on VIN. The lightnings all appear to finish with Gxxxxx. The lightnings listed at the dealership where I will be purchasing are G05691, G02977, and G03618. Mine is scheduled for late August is G10050. These numbers were assigned upon scheduling, not building, but they can give you an idea of planned production.

Thanks. Doesn't look that far off the 15,000 Reuters reported in August 2021 but I guess we will have to wait for the official numbers.

And, please note that the VIN sequence will also include pre-production models that should never see the light of day as a Unit available for purchase on the retail or used market.

“…sourced from Ford production window stickers and sales reports.”

I am curious about exactly how you derived your numbers from these sources (not criticizing, just interested).

Thanks in advance.

Tenacious & meticulous research, I'm a trained investigator, now retired with a little idle time.

The window sticker data shows us the gross production volume each week, this was the volume for resumption of production [696] the week of 7/31/2023, I've been watching the window stickers for a year and a half ++ since the start of general production.

I see and thanks.

About 25 years ago I compiled a database list of Ford automobile serial numbers (along with when and where the cars were shipped) from the original (but incomplete) FMC accounts receivable. The data base begins with the first 1903 Model As and continues up to Model T #1139 in March 1909. After #1139 other much more complete shipping information is available making it unnecessary to continue working working along the same line.

I am a retired Economics, Economic History and Statistics professor, so I can appreciate the tenacious nature of the work you have done.

17444: Is this just Lightnings for retail, or does it include fleet?

All, including the FCTP [demo], Special orders, Stock orders and Fleet orders, all classes of build are in the weekly gross production value.

One qualifier, I doubt any of us have access to the number of losses & spoilage, some trucks were lost in the battery fire incident, of course they were still produced and counted in the numbers I cite, but won't ever be sold.

There are development models that will never be sold and retention samples for the Ford museum.

Battery fire trucks were 23 models, no?
