I never found a dealer yet that would guarantee the rebates at time of order. I get whatever is available when I get the truck. They are good now and hopefully I will get it before April 4th. But maybe they will stay the same after April 4th or get better.Nothing like a little adventure when ordering a truck.

Hmm okay maybe ill call them and make sure once we are closer to april 4 if it hasnt shown up by then. But our trucks are probably very close to match honestly. I went screw 4x4 xlt 5.0 3.73 e lock, 302a package as well. Didnt go bed liner cause i was told it could delay delivery and had 3yr warranty vs lifetime with other companies. But its supposed to be made in kansas as well. Man keep me posted on what you hear

Ordered my new Lariat on 1/4/16 with a 2.7 and 502a package. Got tired of the delays and waiting on if and when they would build these packages together. Changed the order to 3.5 eco boost and 502a 2/12/16 and just got my VIN today with an estimated build week of 3/7/16. It is getting built in Kansas City. The waiting is hard, but now that I am getting some information I think it will only be harder. Wahoo.

I was told the same by the dealer here in Southern California that it's whatever is available when the truck is delivered when I pick it up.

You have to watch how they promise incentives at order time and delivery time. Some incentives may not be available when your truck arrives. You will get what ever incentives are available when your truck arrives though. Example for me was Costco $1000. Costco no longer offered that by the time my truck arrived. Luckly Ford had added $750 cash and increased delivery allowance by another $500 from what it was at order time. Ford also offered 0% financing which was better then the 1.99 at order time and saved another $2800. What I did was worked on getting as much as I could from the dealer at order time as that will not change at all. Then take whatever is available from Ford when it arrives.

For all of you getting your 2016 beauties in, I created a thread to try and collect GVWR and payload data. Posting to the thread with your trucks information will be useful for those trying to understand how trim level, engine, and option selection influences payload capacity. Here's the thread: https://www.f150forum.com/f82/post-your-payload-332538/

Well this is a nice surprise. Ordered my XLT Sport SCAB on 1/13/16, and got a call this evening that it arrived at the dealer. They told me 12 weeks and it barley took 5. Good timing for incentives I guess.

No idea. I never got around to even trying to track it as I figured it would be another month at least. I'm in the middle of tax time so I have been too busy at work to worry about the truck, but I certainly can't complain.

That being said I haven't seen it yet, so I need to make sure it's exactly what I ordered. I don't know if it matters, but I'm in California and my order priority was 10 and mine is a 4X2.

I am going to the dealer tomorrow after work, so fingers crossed.

Well, I got the window sticker and it looks like exactly as ordered, so that's good news. Ordered Jan 13, built in KC on Feb 6 and at my dealer in the SF Bay Area on Feb 22. I suppose it helps that the BNSF auto loading yard is about 10 minutes from my dealer.
