Hi Everyone, just wanted to say hello. We are a Ford Family Edge, Explorer, Mustang SVO, and I just ordered a brand new F150. It's a Lariat 4x4 with a 6.2 and a 3.73 locking diff. It's going to be Platinum White with Grey Leather. I'll post pictures when it arrives in 6 weeks.

Well my truck has been lost in limbo. Dearborn built the truck 5 weeks ago but have no way to ship. I tried to call the help line with shockingly rude results. I called my dealer to tell them I am a beaten man. They were very helpful and apologetic about the Ford help line. As a result they were very kind to offer me some great upgrades and to order the truck from the Kansas City plant. Hopefully, I'll see it in 6-8 weeks. I guess we'll see.

The 6 - 8 week time frame for a factory order is correct. The shipping is another story. I had the exact same issue as you. It took 6 weeks to get from factory to dealer. AND, they have the ***** to charge $1100 for shipping! Were you given an ETA date?

The original ETA date was March 24th. I ordered the truck February 3rd and it was built March 6th. I even have a PDF of my sticker. My dealer contacted their rep and they said "Due to the bad weather in the upper mid west they are unable to get enough rail cars". They also said they are unable to track orders and have no way of telling when I would ever see it. I tried calling the Ford line and sounded annoyed I was even calling. After I requested to be transferred to the next level it just got worse and they wouldn't help me. At any rate my dealer gets a lot of credit for moving heaven and earth for making it right. Hopefully, I will see this one in 6 - 8 weeks.
