Mine is officially at the dealership with pickup scheduled for tomorrow morning at 9 when I'll move from the "Wait Club" to the "Platinum Club". Pictures tomorrow and mods to follow shortly. I sincerely hope the 10/26 build group receive their trucks quickly!

Congrats Coaster. No sleep for you tonight, like the night before Christmas as a kid.

Lol there's an idea. Happy for all the people getting their trucks. Sad that ours, built before some of them, are rusting away at the plant. lol

Hi Shawn,
My order date was Sept. 21st with build day Nov. 10th and "in-transit" the 11th. Like many of the 10/26 club, I don't understand why yours hasn't shipped. I honestly thought yours would be delivered earlier than mine and hopefully it will be very soon. The white tricoat will be worth the wait and I'll be watching for your pictures!

Wait till it arrives crawl underneath it while it is still at the dealer and take a look at the underside of the truck. Check out the transfer case, suspension components etc. There's a bunch of it that gets "overlooked" in the production process and as such a number of people on here have opted for the dealer provided undercoating or simply doing it themselves. It's just surface rust, but on a brand new truck it can be a real eye sore when you catch a glimpse of it. ...and if you do have the dealer do it, don't let them sell you "rust proofing". If it isn't immediately apparent why, check out the process in the video below and remember your body panels are aluminum.

He can if he goes through the process of submitting the paperwork through the Ford incentive program before it expires

I've had my truck since August and it has 0 rust on anything underneath, 4000 miles on it. I haven't put any undercoating on except for the wheel wells.
