effectively yes. Mine was shipped with vehi-ship to a holding lot, and from there it went onto a railcar. At that point I was able to track the railcar. After that, you are stuck again and at the mercy of the dealer I think.

Keep bugging Ford Chat. They can tell you what the railcar number is if you are onto a railcar. You can track that.

A little birthday present for you lol that’ll be nice as hell. I’m just glad mine doesn’t have to go on any rail cars.

Finally, some good news......my 502A Powerboost with a blend date of 3/24 came off of chip hold 6/8. It's headed to the rail yard now. Ford estimates arrival date to my dealer 7/4 - 7/10.

I visited some friends in Michigan last week and decided to play "Where's Waldo" and look for a truck similar to mine in one of the many storage lots Ford is using to house our trucks. The first two photos (with the fencing around the F-150's) were taken at a warehouse, South of Ford World Headquarters. This may be the location where the spray-in bed liners are installed,...not sure.

The next two photos were taken in parking lots behind Ford World Headquarters. The area was well guarded and it appeared that contract employees were moving/reorganizing two of the lots (on a Sunday) containing F-150's and Lightning's.

The final two photos were taken near the Ford Executive Garage. The were several rows of various Ford vehicles, along with a row of Ford Lighting pickups. It's possible that the Lightning's are going into service for Ford employees. I tried to check VIN numbers to see if any were pre-production, but the Ford Security Guard arrived and kindly asked me to leave.

There were other storage lots in the area, but they were also well guarded, so it was difficult to take photos.
