  1. Anyone else seeing this on their Lightning reservation?

    It shows up on mine, only less credit. :unsure: I knew I forgot to pay a bill.
  2. Reserved within first 15 minutes, but dealer just told me I won't get a Lightning until 2023.

    Good news! My dealership actually emailed me, out of the blue. The bad news is I'm one of the many here who reserved in the first 15 minutes and somehow ended up way down the list at the dealership. I don't know how many reservations this dealership has but the guy said I'm 20th on the list...
  3. Ford Warns Dealers Against Additional Deposit / Payment Requirements For Lightning Orders. Supports No-Resale Provisions in Purchase Contracts

    I'm trying to understand why one document says (I'm paraphrasing) "Dealers, stop damaging our reputation by screwing customers with markups" and also includes "Customers, you can't resell the lightning". Are these things related? To me, the reason that a dealer shouldn't mark up this car is...
  4. $19,500 extra for the ER on the XLT?!!

    Well I hate to even say it but it's possible that the lariat ER battery is mistakenly included in the feature package. It's just not consistent to charge 10,000 for just the battery (if you buy an XLT) vs. 10,000 for the battery plus tow tech, moonroof, co-pilot 360 2.0, heated rear seats, etc...
  5. Wave 1 Lightning Orders - Granger Ford

    The reality is sinking in that there just aren't very many 2022 builds available to go around. If 20,000 are built out of 200,000 reservations, that means the average dealer with 100 reservations will only get 10 total. Divide that by 6 waves and it's not going to get much better than 1 or 2...
  6. $19,500 extra for the ER on the XLT?!!

    My guess is that everyone that wanted an XLT ER is upset. And since that pushes people out of that build, it probably impacts some people planning on taking other builds. It's so high that many here wonder if it's a mistake.
  7. Wave 1 Lightning Orders - Granger Ford

    I guess that takes the pressure off in deciding whether or not I can afford an 80,000 dollar truck. At number 15 at my dealership, I should be in wave 3 of 2024. I'm kidding, I know there is a ramp up. I reserved about 5 minutes into the presentation. I'm about 15 on the thousand or so...
  8. How many Pros for non fleet customers in 2022?

    I think I recall people saying there are about 3000 dealers so 1 in 3 dealers get 1, 2 of 3 get none? That would be pretty awful chances.
  9. ?‍? F-150 Lightning Build & Price Configurator Now Live! Post Your Build

    Oh, like a power switch to turn on various things like screen, radio, etc.. Makes sense. Thanks. It's sort of like turning the ignition key to the first click. I had a feeling it was a dumb question.:)
  10. ?‍? F-150 Lightning Build & Price Configurator Now Live! Post Your Build

    This may be a dumb question but what would a "push start" button do on an electric car? If they change from a manual key to a remote key, do you need a button if there is no engine to start? And I assume there is still some shifter to take if from a parked state to a ready to drive state...
  11. ? 2022 F-150 Lightning Order Bank Playbook With Pricing! ? Ordering Begin 1/6, Build & Price Tomorrow 1/4!

    I no longer get Access Denied on the build and price but it doesn't have the lightning as a choice once the build and price comes up.
  12. ? 2022 F-150 Lightning Order Bank Playbook With Pricing! ? Ordering Begin 1/6, Build & Price Tomorrow 1/4!

    I understand the concern but after having gone through this process with the Bronco, I don't plan on hesitating. You can always decline at payment time if bad news comes out or you don't like the way it drives. And given the number of reservations vs the expected production, this one may be in...
  13. ? 2022 F-150 Lightning Order Bank Playbook With Pricing! ? Ordering Begin 1/6, Build & Price Tomorrow 1/4!

    For me that's a "cross that bridge when I get to it" kind of thing. I am just hoping for an invite. It will be rough waiting for two weeks wave after wave if the invite doesn't happen. I went through the order process for the bronco and had to make changes to the trim level and options due...
  14. Ford email confirms F-150 Lightning orders starting at “beginning of the new year”

    OK Ford, it's the beginning of the new year now. I'm eagerly awaiting my invitation to order! ;)
  15. 🙋🏻‍♂️ Say Hello and Introduce Yourself! ?

    I'm Kevin. I joined to keep up with the news and updates on the Ford Lightning. After waiting a year to get a Bronco I'm now in line for a Lightning. Hopefully the wait is a little smoother.
  16. Fully Optioned Lightning XLT ER vs. Base Lariat ER

    I agree that it seems pretty basic. My remote rattled in the ash tray for years. I finally added some weather strips in the ash tray to cushion it so it wouldn't rattle. Built in would be nice. I just checked and confirmed that my bronco didn't come with it unless I had upgraded to the...
  17. Fully Optioned Lightning XLT ER vs. Base Lariat ER

    I'm confused by the concern over the garage door opener. I agree that a built in opener would be nice but I assume all garage door openers come with remote controls. We keep those in our cars, which admittedly are older cars. Other than the convenience of not having a remote in the car, does...
