One advantage of these delays, as I've stated before, is that you can put away an extra $1000 per month for a while and be that much closer to fully paid when taking delivery.
This assumes your old truck is still functional so yer not up the creek.

If the old truck got wrecked or something, then definitely buy used or off the lot...no brainer...

 

Same for me.

 

Kind of a bitter sweet day for me...it will also be 5 years since my father passed away. I know he would be proud as he was a diehard Ford guy. I still have his 1978 F250, he left it in his will for my son.

 

Bamm, Just placed an order today 2016 Lariat, & 3.5L Ecoboost. Invoice price just went up $600- from last week apparently 1/4ly price increases kicked in this week, oh well to bad. But got the truck I wanted, but ouch that hurt a wee bit.

I'm sorry for you loss, I just saw your post, my thoughts are with you. A great memoir for your son indeed, I drove my Grandad's Triumph 1500, I loved it was his.

" 2016 Lariat Sport SuperCrew 4x4, Race Red, 3.5L EB, 502A, max tow, twin panel moonroof, 20" 6 spoke wheels, tow mirrors, 36 gallon tank."

I got almost same same 3.5L EB, 502A, max tow, twin panel moonroof, 20" 6 spoke painted wheels, tow mirrors, 36 gallon tank, technology package .
Got 4x2 in Magnetic grey. I did go tow mirrors too after much much debate.
Feels good been looking for a 18 months at this.

I looked hard at the comparison. Go big or go .....

 

Sorry to hear that! Very cool about the F250 though.

Great choice! I tow quite a bit for someone that doesn't do it for a living. I towed 10k miles last summer, so the tow mirrors were a no brainer for me.

I really wanted the tech package and adaptive cruise control but I had already spent enough. Haha

 

Newbie here. I ordered a Magnetic XLT last week and haven't received any order number or VIN so I can track my purchase. When would it be reasonable to request this information? Thanks

 

Private message "FordService" and direct it at "Chad." Give him your last name, order # and dealer # (info should be on your order sheet from the dealer). If there is any info to be had, Chad will get it to you!
