  1. Yep. All were full. Picked up the truck March 3.
  2. I'd like everyone to stop posting things they are "assuming" are reasons for delays, plant down time, etc. "Assuming" is rarely correct and only serves to start rumors and spread misinformation. If you are "assuming" something, keep your fingers off the keyboard and the thought to yourself. Just don't...
  3. m My 2017 had 2.5"-->2" reducer. My 2022 has 2.5" receiver and no reducer.
  4. Thanks! The front bench seat is a requirement with all the grandkids...
  5. I hope these are these are the pictures you want to see. If not, let me know and I'll try to be better. One is of the area directly under the Sync 4 and climate controls. One is with the center console positioned upright in the seating position. You didn't request that but thought it would be useful to you. The third is looking through the console from the rear middle seat.
  6. I'll repeat what's previously been said. It means nothing. Don't worry about it. Nothing to see there...
  7. I can finish my timeline now: 02/22/22: Truck arrived at destination railyard (ABQ) 02/25/22: Truck arrived at dealer 03/03/22: I picked up the truck from the dealer. Dealer had to install BW Gooseneck Hitch and spray-in bedliner. Lots of stories out there about how dealers are handling price increases, personal cash offers (PCO), etc., so will share my experience. When I met with the finance manager when I picked up the truck, two things were not correct: my PCO was not applied and the base price was approx. $1,200 higher than it should have been. I used X Plan for pricing. The PCO "expired" January 3. I pointed out the I ordered the truck before then so it should still be valid. Long story short on the price increase, price protection was not applied from the December 2021 price increase. The finance manager readily agreed to correct both issues. There was no pushback nor any sign of reticence to fix them. He sent me home with the truck while he corrected the issues. He corrected them and this morning we finalized the purchase. Everything was to the penny of what it should have been. I will not judge why the errors initially occurred. I will say the volume of custom retail orders and the length of time to build vehicles is a new experience for customers and dealership employees alike. I feel like the dealership did not intentionally overcharge me as eagerly as they wanted to correct the issues and they did. This dealership is Chalmers Ford in Rio Rancho, NM and I would highly recomment them. That being said, when you purchase a vehicle, you are transacting business is as pure a capitalist market as you will find in this age. You have to educate yourself thoroughly before purchasing! Thanks to this forum, I was informed and ready to conduct a good/fair purchase.
  8. Stone Gray 6.7 Lariat just picked up from the dealer yesterday.
  9. As promised here are some pictures. Just brought it home yesterday and I already love this truck!
  10. How many of us have obsessed enough they've memorized their VIN (for the fortunate souls who have a VIN)?? Just click the Like button if you have....
  11. Sorry to hear about your delay. Hopefully it's not something wrong with the truck itself. Feels more likely it is a shipping issue. Driver shortages? The People's Convoy currently underway? Don't know. Sure hope whatever is holding up yours and others resolves quickly.
  12. I have an account too and have had it for a few years. Not sure what that tab is for, but I've had two orders and neither ever showed up in it.
  13. Ugh. Sorry to hear. Yeah, this even caught the dealership off guard. Salesperson called me to basically apologize for not being able to get the PDI done as soon as it came it in this morning. They're understaffed due to omicron and were expecting it next week. No big deal at all since they need to do the hitch and bedliner.
  14. I'll post this info under this topic too, my truck arrived at the dealership this morning, so that seems to be pretty quick from what others have experienced. Still a few days to wait - dealer needs to install gooseneck hitch and spray-in bedliner.
  15. The wait is nearly complete. The truck arrived at the dealership this morning. They need to install the gooseneck hitch and spray-in bedliner so it will be a couple more days yet. For those interested in railyard-to-dealer time, it arrived at the railyard the evening of Feb. 22. Pretty fast delivery to the dealership from what I've heard from others.
