Default Ordering New F-150

Order a new F-150 on April 30th and the dealer is telling me the delivery date is August 6th. When I order thr truck I was told 6 to 8 weeks. Just looking to see if anyone had a truck order around that time and how long did it take a get it deliver. Just checking to see if the dealer is giving me the run around. Thanks for any info.

You sure they didn't order a 2015?

I'm told much of it has to do with the options you choose.
Some can be on constraint.

I was a bit concerned because I ordered my King Ranch with every option. (Except chrome)

Mine was ordered May 7th
Built June 5th
Arrived at Dealer June 19th.
I would have been enjoying the new truck except it was delivered with some kind of chemical/acid that was on the roof. It dried leaving the paint either missing, bubbling or having textured effect about 4" wide by 30" long.
Needless to say the truck went back to Ford cause I didn't want it and neither did the dealer. I'm hoping they can reorder another one. I'm waiting to find out if they can.
Good luck with yours...

I think that 6 to 8 weeks has to be taken with a big grain of salt.
When I bought my 2013 it was in transit to the dealer. They had ordered it 6 weeks before to sell on the lot and it just happened to be exactly what I wanted.
Anyway even though the truck was built and already in transit it still took a month to get to the dealer. Had I have ordered the truck myself I bet it would have taken 10 - 12 weeks before it was in the driveway.
