LOL.

I think we have nearly identical trucks, although I went with Oxford instead of tricoat and the extended range fuel tank. In the end, I think tricoat will look a touch nicer, but I wasn't about to reorder to make that change.

I can't wait to get it--I was really hoping to get a call today from my dealer that it came it.

It's driving me crazy....in a good way.

This just totally saved my ***, thanks. I just checked the dealer stock order my dealer place for me and I nearly died when it said the 5.5 box instead of the 6.5.

I checked my VOC and it states 6.5. Wtf?? I called and left a message for my dealer. They said sure enough, it was in the system wrong and they immediately changed it to 6.5.

15 minutes later I rechecked the Cotus site and I can see that it's correct now. The next question I have into my dealer is how did it get wrong when the original VOC shows it correctly. It pays to be on top of these things.

I'm trying to think of things (other than dealer allocation) that may be holding me up from getting assigned a VIN. So far I've seen just about everything getting scheduled......Platinums, 6.5' beds, 3.73's, FX4s....etc. Then I wondered about the Park Assist option. I would have normally never ordered this option if it weren't for Ford offering a credit for more than the price of the option itself.

Thanks.
I got the park assist for the same reason, it was no cost when packaged with Tech pkg and adaptive Cruise. It actually dropped the price of the truck because it was a 460 dollar option with 500 off when you packaged them. My truck was built last week.

I ordered my truck on 9/26 and I just found the window sticker on the Cotus web site.
Built 11/25, awaiting shipment 11/26. I also found another page showing "In transit" and transit times vary 12-28 days based on my location. I'm in North Florida, VIN #A14332
4x4 SCrew, 502A, 5.0

Now you have me wondering. I wanted a 6.5 box on the supercab. My order says 145" supercab. Does that equate to 6.5 or 5.5? I more need a working truck vs. personnel carrier!

6.5' on Supercab, a 145" Supercrew has a 5.5'

Mine was built 10-28 and per the Cotus site, mine is "awaiting shipment" where trucks built after that are "in transit"..

Mine is buried so far back in the lot it will take a while to get to it.
