ETA for mine is October 2024 - ordered in April. Hard to believe there is a backlog on these given the sales figures for the MMe and Lightning.

Sales figures show they need to make over 120k+ of them.

Does anyone think that ford isn't giving an adapter with every new car sold? Charging is a major concern for EVs and Tesla is the best situated, with the best availability. So if you subtract the amount needed for new cars there's not much left over from the 8000 units per day that Tesla is producing. Let's see, 50000 new mach-e per year is about 1000/month and throw in the Lightning and Transit vans and I'll bet 1/2 of that 8000 is going to new cars. Remember ford is in the business of selling new cars, not making old customers happy.

they're not actually, I specifically asked purchasers of new 24s, they were told to order the same way we are based on vin #. I was surprised, I'd figured surely they'd provide one with each new car ( like they originally did with portable evse)

There are several threads discussing this. The last major batch went out in early June, and it seems like it reached the mid 6000 range. But it appears Ford isn't necessary shipping them out in sequence. some folks with higher order #'s have gotten theirs while folks with lower order #'s are still waiting.

I ordered mine the same time you ordered yours. Mine moved every month currently still September but I got a funny feeling it’s gonna change again.

Nobody has gotten any since June? Thats pretty messed up. No wonder there’s no recent threads about it.

Ford has said they are providing one free adapter to each VIN. I have seen nothing indicating this has changed. The mechanism is still the same as for earlier owners: the owner orders the adapter from the website.

A friend bought a 2024 Lightning last month and ordered his in the same way the rest of us did.
