Ordered my 2013 on 8/15. That order # at the top of the second page is the last 4 digits of my phone number. The dealer said this is how they know whose it is.

Maybe I am just too cynical with age; however, I just do not believe it, when dealers offer up stuff like this.

I was at my local dealer yeseterday afternoon, trying to see if he had heard something on the Labor Day sale, and/or any news on new 2013 arrivals.

He went to his computer and then told me that he could not see "any new 13's for delivery, [anywhere] within an 800 mile radius, in the next 30 days."

Yeah, Ford is stacking up hundreds, maybe thousands, of new 2013's on vacant lots across America; so they can sit there, get dirty, and not collect any income, as they also depreciate.

Moreover, he swore that he knew nothing about any Labor Day discounts, even as I showed him my email from the dealer in northern CA.

Sorry...don't really know the point of your post. Maybe your dealer is dishonest..in that case you should find a new dealer. But my has integrity. I don't doubt my dealer when they say there are not any trucks with exactly my options being delivered. My order is for a Lariat with a very specific options. I'm ok with a long lead time; I'm in no hurry. Plus my dealer offered me a great deal below invoice.

Hey, great ob's

Build date of 08/28, at KC; so most likely soon to be, or on the truck right now.

All you guys, closest to the KC plant, will most likely start seeing 13's on lots first.

That's not true. Theres a dealer from the plant 5 miles down the road and they don't even have 13s yet. It's even so close they still use a semi car hauler to take them there instead of drive them.

Read my post.

Closest, as in nearer than Los Angeles, or Seattle; which is a logical statement/observation; some of you guys miss the [larger] points and immediately zoom in on the dot, on top of the i.

I doubt [any] dealer has a '13 yet.
