I must say that I really don't care for the Blue Jeans Metallic, but the Ruby Red is awesome! Local dealer just received 2 regular cab 13' XL's, an XLT scab, and a screw FX4. The dealer is scratching his head why he got in a 13' FX4 when he is still waiting on 2-12' FX4's to arrive (one of which I'm waiting to deal on) Honestly I didn't care for the new grills in pictures, but in real life they aren't that bad.

Here in Olathe, Kansas the Ford dealership had 4 or 5. I went for an oil change, and while waiting, was going to look for a '12 FX4. First truck I saw was a '13 Lariat. Looked good. The headlights and grille look REAL good in person. I would have taken pics, but my sim card is jacked up in my phone. Tomorrow I might go back with my IPad and snap some photos.

I was very surprised they had the '13's, there were at least 20 '12's still on the lot. The other thing that surprised me was Ford took away $1000 in rebates, yet they have '13's on the lot. Didn't make much sense to me.

Sorry, but I do not believe any of this!!!

Afterall, there have been [several] members here, over the past month or so, who have been told directly by sales people at multiple Ford dealerships, that it would be late October to mid November, before there would be any 13's on dealer lots!!!!

Even my local dealer told me just last week, that he could see no new 2013 trucks on the 'radar' within an 800 mile radius, and within the next 30 days!!!

There are some listed as being in dealer inventory at local dealers according to Ford's website. If I get some time, I will swing over and see if there are any.

I believe it is possible since they were built in August, why let them sit? You can't make money doing that.

Believe it Nor-cal.. I was shocked also. I was at the same dealership Monday and they didn't think they would see any until late october at the earliest. The next day they received some 13's. Maybe after dinner the wife and I will go to the custard shop and I'll get some photos.

I really do believe it; but its funny to see how hard some of the sales folks work at selling what is on the lot now....the old bird in the hand vs. two in the bush....story!!

I checked the Galpin Ford inventory (SoCal) on the Ford Build site on Friday and there were 42 2013's on-route. I just checked it again this evening and the inventory of new 13's on trucks on-route, is up to 72!!! My guess is, that by the end of the new week, that will change again +++ dramatically.

I am sure they will have dozens within a week or two at the most.

Moreover, Galpin is still showing well over 200 new 12's still on their lot inventory, right now.

I'm sure we will see even greater incentives on all the trucks. Ford won't want to give up marketshare that easily to others. It's already unfortunate that a share of the ranger market has gone to other brands.

Here are some horrible, horrible pictures from my iPad. I could only find two on the lot, but I'm positive there were 5 earlier. So I'm guessing the managers or salesman took a couple home. Or they sold a couple.

Ford better start throwing out some more incentives soon if they want to get rid of all the 12's. I counted over 40 12's on the lot tonight.

I talked to a salesman about a 12 FX4, and with X plan and 4000 in incentives the price was still 38980. Sticker was 46890.
