The wait will be the worst part, but no doubt worth it in the end. I may be in line with you later this year since there are not many race reds leftover from 16 optioned how I would like.

 

I have a 17 Lariat on order as well. I ordered it mid-September and dealer seemed to indicate it would show up in December, but didn't give a date. I still don't have a VIN. I did change my order about a week after putting it in to add a couple of options so that may make my timeline a bad example.
