I went from wondering what ever happened to that 100 bucks I put down in October of 2021 to an email from Ford this morning that my truck is scheduled for production! It's still a little bit out as right now it says 3/27. But ever since i was invited to order my truck on the 19th of January I feel like it's been a steady stream of updates or information. Can't wait for delivery!

Fingers crossed you are next!

Seems kinda random how production dates move around. Has to be based on model.

I also got invite on 12/15 and immediately ordered. Took dealer 2 weeks to accept the order. 2 weeks ago got 2/27/23 production date which I check every day to see if its changing. So far looking good. I ordered Platinum in the Star White. The deletes are troubling but I'll just live with them.

Went all in for Fisker Ocean One in August because I had no faith I would see a Lightening before 24 and it looked like the One would arrive latest 2nd quarter 23. Boy has that changed! At best the One will arrive 3rd quarter but looks like I might have Lightening by the end of March!!! And the IRS hosed us on the One tax rebate even though we have confirmed order with $5K down. Not sure if I will keep the One but I have a guy who wants to buy it if I don't. Depends on my wife who would be the primary driver.

And Sunrun just called to discuss Chargepro and Install. Not sure I will use them for install but they quoted $1250 all in. 100% sure they can't find adders since I just built this detached garage with its own meter and I have new 200 amp panel with nothing but lights and 2 thru wall AC units running to to support my office which is in the garage.. The charger will be on same wall as the panel within 3' so no conduit run to speak of.

Really getting anxious to get my hands on the truck.

My order now says it's pushed back for production from 3/13 to 3/27 thanks to the battery fire. Curious if y'all are seeing the same?
Yes my 2/27 also pushed to 3/6 We should hope its only 1 week.

Just checked and production pushed out another week to 3/13/23. Hopefully the 2 week stand-down only lasts 2 weeks.🤞

New production date is 3/27/23 which with production restart seems feasible.
