I figured it would be close to impossible to get it installed for $260. Dealer said they will mail it to me once it is shipped to them.

Ordered 250 Platinum 04/14, delivered to me on 10/15. As seen in the screenshot below from the window sticker, I ordered the "factory" winch, but it was ultimately listed as a dealer installed accessory. My truck was delivered to dealer on 10/11 and to me from the dealer on 10/15. The dealer said the winch was not shipped with the truck and the regional Ford rep. was trying to locate/track the winch shipment. As of today, I still have no ETA on when the winch will be delivered to me. The dealer is several hours from my house (ordered through mutual connection), so they issued me a check for $260 for the installation costs. Although I know it was more expensive to order from factory vs. purchasing after-market, I wanted to avoid having to purchase after-market and taking the truck to have the winch installed, etc. Very frustrating waiting 7 months for a truck, overpaying for a "factory" accessory for convenience reasons (lesson learned), and Ford cannot give you an answer on where the accessory is, or when it might be shipped. Just curious if anyone else has run into this issue with the "factory" winch? Order Schedule.pdf Winch.pdf

Finally received the notice today my Platinum (Carbonized Gray 6.7L) has been scheduled for production on 10/04. Received order confirmation email back on 04/14. Dealer reached out last week of August and said I had a good chance of being scheduled this week if I removed spray in bed liner and 5th wheel prep package. Hopefully this is good news for others who have been waiting as long as I have. Thank you @ice-capades for all of your insight on this entire process.

I ordered my Platinum on 04/14 and still haven't received a VIN or been scheduled for production. My dealer text me yesterday and said their scheduler in Dearborn informed them my truck is being held up because of commodity issues with the spray in bed liner and 5th wheel prep package. He has removed both of these from my build so we will see how long it takes to get scheduled for production. I understand there are a number of individuals on this thread who have trucks with these same 2 commodities that have already been built, I am just sharing this information for those like myself who are growing increasingly frustrated with inconsistencies of the scheduling/build timeline.

I ordered my Platinum on 04/13, received the order confirmation email from Ford on 04/14. Crickets since 04/14. No VIN #. Dealer is responsive (call backs, etc.), but just gives me the generic "chip shortage" response- no detailed information like some dealers seem to be providing others.
