I also ordered the brochure. It contained the same offer with the same expiration date. No success since with brochure, online price requests, etc. $1000 offer would be nice but won't kill me.

Good Luck!
Has everyone who has gotten offers done it via snail mail brochure? Or has anyone gotten any by requesting pdf brochure to your email?

Are you saying you already have a Private Cash offer that has not expired yet? If so I wouldn't request any brochures unit that one has expired, I doubt they would issue 2 at once...Just my 2 cents.

I'm saying mine came in late October, expired 12/5. Truck is due 1/3.

The Nightmare continues...Ordered 16' KR 5.0 w/o 601 package SEPT 21- order actually entered (dealer SNAFU) OCT 17, got VIN shortly afterwards with build DAY of NOV 16 with ETA DEC 6, at last minute was bumped to build WEEK of JAN 25 with ETA end of FEB. Now dealer informs me it has been bumped AGAIN to WEEK of FEB 22 WITH ETA end of MAR! If anyone from Ford is monitoring this, WTF is going on??? IF this truck ever shows up, the 17's will be right around the corner...

Thanks for the heads up 1MJW, I was looking to place an order for a 2016 Limited, and was wondering how long they would take to come in. Any idea if this is just related to your build or if all of the builds were pushed back? Whats the ETA on a new build at this point?

Not all builds were pushed back, dealer really has no idea what the issue is either. A friend of mine ordered a Platinum just over 5 weeks ago and took delivery New Years Eve, very nice truck! The only unique/rare aspects of my build are that it is fully loaded but without the 601 package (do not want deployable running boards or any nanny controls) and it is a 5.0 w/3.73 gearing...Would at least be nice to get an explanation from Ford.

Thanks for the replys, I am going to take the advice & call my dealer for a rail car #.

It's just a one-off fluke IMO.

I ordered a Limited first of Nov and it's been trucking right along. ETA to dealer of 2/1 currently.

So it's about a 4 month lead time from order to delivery? If you don't mind sharing, what additional options did you pick up and what was the final cost (with incentives)? I can't wait to see the pics!
