Oh man! I wonder if my Star Light White Lariat arrived as well?

See if my carbonized gray pro is there, too!

It’s going to take a couple of days for them to inspect and prep for pick up. I’ll drive by today to see if any other trucks got delivered!

I hope all three arrived today. I have not received a call from my sales person so I am assuming that mine is not in Dixon yet . The last day of my delivery window is Monday.

@CoyoteJim did yours show up on Folsom lake?

Saw three more arrive but still not mine.

If yours shows up without mine....

I drove by both Dixon locations but only saw my gray lariat, oxford white pro and blue XLT. Sorry about that, but hopefully your trucks arrive by Monday!

It is my understanding that PaulB510's Carbonized Gray Lariat is the only Lightning that has arrived so far today in Dixon. While I am hopeful, it doesn't make a lot of sense for them to deliver one in the morning and then more in the afternoon when they could have taken all three at one time. Having said that, I don't really know...

Nice looking truck! Congratulations on its arrival! Thanks for checking to see if any other Lightning trucks arrived today. Hopefully Monday is the day for us.

Seems like something ford would do... Unless I hear otherwise, I'm pretty sure ford left my truck behind for the 2nd or third time delivering to my dealer in the past week and this time it took a truck that arrived after me to las Vegas.

That’s my truck! The vin matches…they haven’t called me yet, though…and my fordpass still says pending. So idk if it’s actually there yet.

Awesome! Would be interested to know if it's there or how long it ends up taking after it showed up online.

I have to assume it showed up for some reasonsl, don't think it would be arbitrary.

My truck still shows in transit / shipped status even though it’s physically at the dealership. Major delay in the tracking system!

It will be interesting to see how long it takes for it to switch to the delivered status.

I left a message for the salesperson but haven’t head back. I’m going camping at Pt Reyes tomorrow, was hoping to get the truck by then but looks like it will have to wait until Wednesday. But I’m glad it seems to be closer to being in my hands.

There are so many people in this forum who placed orders early and are still waiting for their truck to be shipped. It really does seem sort of arbitrary how things went - @gorwell and I ordered same dealer, same wave, same model, similar config, yet he got moved to a later build week and then moved to an earlier delivery schedule…just seems like our trucks would have been built and shipped as close together as possible for maximizing logistics (in the end they kind of were, but I don’t think that was by Ford’s plan). And I think of @IdeaOfTheDayCom who went to the Ford event, got featured as a driver in the opening video and even so got his build week pushed back to August! So it’s not lost on me that I am lucky to have only had to wait until now for the delivery. But it’s hard to have it so close but still have to wait…

I didn’t want to make this harder on you guys. But had to share.

Great truck worth the wait.
Fleet sales manager at Tom hillier cool guy totally respectable. Wouldn’t have the truck without him. See post history if your curious why.

man so glad you're on the other side now, the survivors guilt was crushing me.
