  1. Never thought this post would come, but she’s finally arrived! Dealer was awesome and managed to get the brush guard installed same day as I had to head out of town for work the next morning at 4. Ordered 2-9-22 Arrived on Monday 1-23, picked it up 1-24. Obviously got the guard and installed a tonneau cover on it so far. Next is tint and a 3” lift with a 37s! (Also I think removing the FX4 was definitely the right call)
  2. Ordered my ranch hand guard (without the bumper) on Friday. Supposed to be delivered to the store today, gonna grab it this weekend. Still waiting on the truck, but Hoping I’m able to pick it up next weekend and get it thrown on. So far I’ve bought the tonneau cover and the brush guard. Planning on getting some last little accessories this week to prep for delivery. Things like rain guards, stuff to protect the truck from the pups, organization stuff, possibly a mount for the Glock, but I hate the thought of drilling into the dash so not sure on that one yet. Let me know what y’all have gotten for your truck! Can’t wait to start building it. I’ll be working out of this nearly every day so im curious what people have noticed is important/useful to have.
  3. Oh yes I’m definitely getting this, going to order this weekend I believe! It is a must have. Those trucks look great!! Yours as well congrats!
  4. Good news everyone, my truck has made it to the holding lot to wait for convoy transportation following its trip via rail. It is in Petersburg VA at lot B apparently. I’m curious y’all’s thoughts. My estimated date for my dealer was today. Obviously that will not happen, and he said the estimation is now the 24th. I think this is just an automated push back seeing as the old date came and went. I’m thinking there is still a chance I see it this weekend and I feel like the date is nearly pointless as of late. Obviously any ideas are speculations but I feel like the holding lots after rail have been better. The only thing I’m worried about is my 8’ box holding me up. My truck is listed as “hot” but I also think so are everyone else’s. Let me know your guesses. Will I see my truck this weekend or will it be closer to the 24th? Good news is my 2014 F150 that I bought in 2020 and put 60k miles on was totaled and I will get $15,700 despite the fact that I only paid $14,500. This world is crazy.
  5. That’s awesome! Makes sense, but glad to hear/learn about it!
  6. Interesting that you say it rides smoother, I haven’t heard that. Im definitely excited. For me bigger is better, plus I feel cooler LOL. I had a 6.5 in my last 150 but this will still certainly be a much larger truck. Can’t wait!
  7. Curious to see some more pics of these trucks. I plan on doing 5% all the way around, 35 on the windshield with a 5% brow and maybe 35-50 on the sun roof. I want to mitigate what but not worried about privacy on the sunroof. Yes all of this is very not legal lol oh well. Secondary offense here in va. The back 3 don’t matter though. My last truck has 5% on the back 3 10 on the two front sides and no windshield.
  8. Exactly! Getting that superduty fever feeling again! And oh yes I’m definitely going to be getting some stuff for this truck. Especially stuff to keep the dogs off my leather!!! Haha. But that’s awesome to hear about the bumper. Also hoping it will help my truck look a little less lopsided with the long bed by adding the extra length on the truck. The damn thing will bd over 22’ long at that point. Land yacht! No more drive through for me. Looking at getting a 3” lift and shoving 37x12.50s under her! First things first with the bumper though lol. Only mod I want to do but won’t because I like my warranty is the def delete.
  9. Oh I gotcha. And funny you mention. My buddy hit a deer in his truck and while it wasn’t totaled it caused a lot of damage and I gave him hell about having a guard. I had not gotten one for my last truck as I knew I would be getting rid of it and thought I would’ve had the new one by now. But my plan was to buy the ranch hand as soon as I get my new one. I may even order it ahead of time like my tonneau cover is waiting for the truck haha. I am putting it on as soon as possible as I don’t want to risk it at all! I’m getting the guard without the bumper though as I want to keep my stock bumper because of the king ranch paint matching. Though my dealer warned me to ensure that it would not impact any of the sensors. He notes they had a customer bring a 150 in to get the guard installed and had to move sensors, though on the website it says the one works with the front camera and the collision warning sensors. Was wondering if you know if your son in law had any issues with sensors when he installed his? Also hopefully these new target dates are more accurate for delivery. Im honestly not sure what to think. My truck is come to va and our train from what I heard goes up to Ohio and back down towards southern va where it awaits truck carriers. Hard to believe at this point I could have my truck by the end of the week.
  10. Thank you very much! Good luck with your order as well!! And as of now my estimate is the 2nd (yesterday) through the 8th. The dealers program was showing the 5th, I assume it just grabs the midpoint. Although as my date has been changed so many times now I try not to buy into those dates too much. But I definitely think the end of this week is possible if they are timely. If not I have hopes of this month. Though my biggest concern is having the long bed. I know these tend to take longer to ship, but keeping my fingers crossed! 331k though that’s pretty impressive! My 150 was about 202. Curious when you happened to place your order originally? There’s one other superduty at my dealership that was ordered before mine last January that is still sitting at the KTP, though if is a dually.
  11. Been awhile since I’ve been on here but had a few things I wanted to share with everyone. First the bad; on my way back from my vacation for the holidays I unfortunately got in an accident with a deer. It was 11:30 at night 45 minutes from home in our 11 hour drive. My 14 f150 did its job exceptionally and protected my family without injury. Only had slight bruising to my own hand from the airbag. The seatbelts actually stopped any contact with the airbags other than that which was amazing. Unfortunately a damaged radiator, transmission cooler and transmission as well as no oil pressure or power steering I’m assuming, and at this point hoping it is totaled. This left me in a weird position as I’m waiting from my F250 to be delivered. Good news now, I was with my dealer yesterday who has been very amazing. I was giving my approval to run credit info, lock into an interest rate, and secure a 2,500 PCO. and while I was there I asked if he had seen any tracking updates. He was showing me the new application dealers have been given which has a semi-live location shown on a map. And an hour before I got to the dealer my truck had boarded a train in KY. nearly 11 months later and she’s on her way. I’m hoping shipping will go smoothly for me as nothing else has and my current rental will only last 25 days covered by insurance. I will keep everyone updated as much as I can and be sure to post pictures when it comes in! I hope the truck drivers are nice and grab my truck even though I have the long box. (Also for those that may be wondering what interest rates are like as I know I was, I was given the best tier at tier 0 from ford and a 7.9% rate. Though I’m 22 with a good score but little credit history.)
  12. Any updates? Mine is still sitting haven’t heard a damn thing. Just confused at this point.
  13. Oh yeah totally get the frustration. Especially when I haven’t even see it budge and Ford is no longer disclosing hold information I believe so idk if my truck is on hold or what. It’s listed as released but who knows. I didn’t have anhtbjng crazy and it was already sent offsite once. How come it could be sent offsite so quickly but it can’t be sent o me. Ordered in February and paying 85k It’s just extremely frustrating. I know a lot of people might be like yeha well that’s just how it is with supply chain and whatnot But man if my truck has been sitting at KTP for almost 2 months I feel like we gotta explore something else. I offered to pay to drop ship it to a dealer next to the plant but you have to make that decision before your truck gets built. ??‍♂️ I’m a diehard Ford man but this is killing me. I had to drop 1500$ on my trade in for a repair, but when I ordered in February I wasn’t worried cause I imagined I would have my truck by now. And now I’ll probably be sold a 2022 in 2023 without any “year old” discount.
  14. That’s awesome! Unfortunately just got my new dates of dec 9-15. Although Tim not really buying any dates at this point. Just figure it will appear at the dealership one of these days. Extremely confused why I haven’t gotten on a train as it’s been 2 months. Part of me is hoping the tracker is messed up. I know it’ll be worth the wait. Just gonna keep hoping. post some pics if you haven’t already for sure!! Think you posted one in your first post but honestly can’t remember lol. Thank you for the good luck!
  15. Man you got an awesome shipping experience! My truck has been released since 8/25 and my date was nov 8-14. Unless it magically appears today I’m expecting to get a pushed email the next couple days. It says it’s still sitting at KTP. Part of me wonders if my tracker is messed up which I have heard has happened. Just hoping I get it before Christmas at this point! Beautiful truck though, love the long bed!!!
