As for new incentives. Keep in mind. Ford allows renegotiation for new incentives in October for those who ordered. Because you guys already locked in. If the incentives became better in October when trucks arrive. You are allowed to renegotiate or not. So there's no gamble, really.

Yeah, real magic - just heard from my dealer that my truck's not going to be ready until tomorrow afternoon! Apparently they didn't order the tonneau cover until they'd done the PDI - even though the tonneau cover was ordered with the truck 2.5 months ago!
It's not that I need the truck immediately, but I'd sure like to have it!

Ok, so as our crazy awesome poster ‘97 did...I have discovered my truck’s trip # on Palsapp and it shows as dispatched today. Is there any way to track from that exactly where it’s at, or is the only next step to wait until it shows delivered?

Your dealer can run a vehicle visibility report. Like mine did within the last hour. Which showed my truck in Weyburn, Saskatchewan. And I live on an island in the Pacific, 1,000 miles to the west. So boo hoo F150since1997, I do not share your pain.

I think you can really only wait until it's delivered.
The dispatched status seems to be showing the truck has left the yard. By examining delivery receipts for other trucks delivered to my dealer, there was always just several hours from dispatch to delivery, and the distance is about 300 miles.
By looking at the origin and the other destinations on the trip for your truck, you should be able to get an idea of when it should be delivered.

Understood! Your wait time is a special kind of terrible! Hopefully it's on a CP mainline and will arrive in the lower mainland in a day or two and then soon be on the island.

It can be very out doorsie. Fishing's great! I can go to the park in town and pull 15lb salmon out of the river all day long when the season's open. It's more expensive than some parts of the country, but less than others. I really like our mild winters. We don't get much, if any, snow. Which is very un-Canadian. But I've been skiing in February in the morning and then down at the beach in a T-Shirt in the afternoon with the dog. Being in the Air Force I've lived in many parts of our great land, and this is by far my favourite. The wife and I will be retiring here, and exploring with a trailer and our new truck!

It should move via truck transport. It will probably be on palsapp.com. You cam search it there with your VIN. My dealer told me all hers come via truck from KC to Kingfisher, OK

No way to track where it's actually at but it is like UPS leaving a package on your door step. When they drop it the dealer signs the iPad and it changes palsapp to show as delivered with a delivery receipt. If there are other vehicles on that transport that get delivered before yours you can see when they are delivered and know the progress the truck has made by that. Mine stopped in Guthrie before delivering mine so I knew when they were headed from Guthrie to Kingfisher
