Received the VIN for my F-150 King Ranch this morning. Estimated delivery Dec. 26. Considering the holidays we'll have to see how accurate that date is but at least it's in the system.?

Great! Thanks.

What does this mean? I ordered a 2019 F-150 King Ranch on September 17th. "2019 F-150 No Scheduling. Retail orders will not be selected for scheduling until the “OK to Buy” status has been achieved."

Thanks.

I'm looking to order a 2019 F150 King Ranch. When should I be able to place my order?

I obtained a PIN through the Partners Program, Thanks.

Thanks for the replies everyone. I guess I'll have to see what I can get from the dealers for prices. The X-Plan rules say you can't use it if you've already talked to the dealer so I've been waiting. It's too late for me to join the Mustang Club. I have to place an order in the next couple weeks. Again, thanks for the quick responses. Lee

When purchasing my last vehicle in 2008 I obtained an X-plan pin on here which made purchasing a Ford the most cost effective option over the other brands. The pin's at that time were readily available. I am now about to purchase a new SUV and was hoping to get an Explorer with the X-Plan which would make it the best priced again. Unfortunately it seems the pin's have dried up. My request as well as all the others get looked at but no one responds. Has Ford cut back the program? I would really like to order a vehicle in the next week or two. Thanks, Lee

I should have stated in the first post, it is an F-250 Supercab, long bed, 6.4 diesel, 4X4. When fully loaded and the 5th wheel hooked up there is aprox. 1500# in the bed. That doesn't drop the rear of the truck enough to provide proper clearance unless I raise the pin height which then makes the trailer nose high. Since the rear of the truck is still several inches higher than the front, I was hoping there was an easy way to drop the height a couple inches. As Hydro stated, I do have the option of raising the trailer. Since it has torsion axels, they can't be "flipped", but, a spacer can be installed below the frame to raise it. I was trying to avoid this since it is a lot of work, and it raises the center of gravity which decreases stability, reduces roof clearance, increases the hight of the first step and increases wind resistance which decreases mileage.

I have an 08 F-250 on order, and I would like to lower it a couple inches to provide more clearance for my 5th wheel. Is their an easy way to do this, without compromising the ride? Actually it probably only needs the rear lowered since it sits higher than the front.
