Lightning Pro Production date 5/30

[Stlww18]

Thought I’d post since I’ve seen a ton of Lariats and Platinums being scheduled. My Wave 1 Pro SR was just scheduled for a 5/30 build. Max tow, trailer tech, spray in liner

Wooo! Finally get to join a build date club!

Lariat ER, max tow, bed-liner in Atlas Blue scheduled for 5/30 as well. We were hoping to do a road trip in late July and I desperately wanted to take this truck. Fingers crossed for no delays for our group and no dealer shenanigans!

I’ve got a charity BBQ event at the end of June that’s relying on my truck to tow the smoker; I’d love to have the Lightning for it! Plug the smoker right into the bed and go! Who knows how long it will take to actually make it to the dealer though.

I have a 5/30 week as week. I'm hoping for end of June delivery.

Per ICE orders, seems like they usually take 3-4 weeks to ship to dealer. Could be less if you're closer to the plant... Or longer if there are trucking shortages.

Might be cutting it close. Really depends on how aggressively Ford ships the Lightnings out.

Via train ? also

Mine is the same build, I randomly looked today and found I have a date week of 6/13.

5/30 = Memorial Day, they working on the Monday? Short work week?

Wave 2 - XLT SR 5/30 Build : Max Tow/ Tow Tech/ Tailgate Step/ 9.6 KW Pro Power

Another Wave 2 - XLT SR 5/30 Build : Max Tow/ Tow Tech/ 9.6 KW Pro Power here. Got the date and VIN a while ago though.

The wait is getting harder and harder. I really wish there was a way to just pick it up from the Factory instead of waiting for it to arrive at my dealer in Upstate NY.

All the dates are "Week of...", so I guess they always use Mondays as a reference, regardless of holidays. Mine is week of 6/13, another Monday.

Yup - and based on my experience with the Mach-e, that is when they start, but don't expect to see any movement on the trackers for a few weeks after that - production will take 3-4 weeks and then it can be a bit before it ships as well. Expect to see your truck ~2 months after that date give or take a couple weeks.

Bummer for me. I've been without a truck since last June when my F-150 broke down (wouldn't start and they couldn't figure out why for 4 months). I really hoped I'd have my new one before the summer.

I hope they're going to expedite shipping because it's their flagship model. That would be a smart move for Ford because every other car maker has broken promises to actually deliver EV trucks in volume. Their reputation (and stock prices) will make a giant leap by being the first company to actually follow through as promised.

If shipping takes a while, I'm guessing a lot of us here wouldn't mind taking a road trip to pick ours up at the factory.

I'm an identical build in the same region as you, 6/20 production week.

The wait for a build week was the hardest, as I had fear of slipping to MY23. Now that I have one, the rest of the wait will be easy(ish).
