I need a site like LightningHackr dot com… still no luck finding an XLT in Cali.

Edit: Not a real website, just need one like that. Changed it so nobody would be clicking and feeling rickrolled.

Much like EV’s themselves…LONG overdue.

My 2023! XLT Lightning says it’ll be in production 2nd week of October, so assuming I’ll have it mid November. Realistically since MSRP went up $7k, how much can I sell it for? Auctions are doing 2022, and since mine is 2023 if it’s SR XLT, can I get like 20k over? Or more?

XLT SR I would expect more like $10K to $15K over MSRP.
I am pretty sure the XLT is already sold out for 2023 so value should hold pretty steady.

Weren’t dealers or Ford asking for a year lock period before selling it?

I did have a 1 year no-resale clause slipped into the purchase order I signed. However I paid cash and accepted no rebates, incentives or special pricing from the dealer. I don’t believe the dealer can take any consequential action if I breach the agreement.

To mitigate this risk further, I am primarily looking to trade the vehicle in, before selling it outright. The no re-sale clause does not cover trade-in scenarios and they seem to be 100% permitted.

Definitely not on any recent paperwork I have seen or signed.

I purchased xlt end of August. I didn’t sign anything stating I couldn’t sell it. The finance guy asked how long I planned on keeping it but that’s it.

I still see 2022s in production for October, 2023s are produced simultaneously?

23 F150s aren’t being built right now

Orders are open though

I thought you couldn’t order without a reservation

Sorry…

I meant 2023 F150s in general can be ordered

So is this likely?

My order says 2023 production date October 17th. Dealer said usually it arrives 4-6 weeks later. Not sure if that 4-6 weeks is accurate? Anyone familiar?

Definitely accurate yep.

It usually takes 1-2 weeks to produce
Up to a week to get it shipped
1-2 weeks to ship

Prob one of the first weeks for 23 builds. Pretty cool (aside from msrp hike)

The truck is absolutely fantastic. You’re going to love it.
