I am 24 days in production with a VVR status of sent offsite. Did you have wheel well liners or the spray in bedliner? I believe both are done at GFX. So I am kinda in the same boat. Was told any day now the bedliner should be installed and it should be released for delivery. Who knows.

Are you kidding me?! 🤣 you must’ve driven past a four leaf clover or something. Regardless congrats. Makes me wonder if mine is in some sort of no mans land and lost in the shuffle 🤔. Guess there’s no point in speculating or worrying. No one knows anything that’s going on, it seems. If I don’t get anything by the end of next week I might have to go Karen on someone at corporate or something to locate this damn vehicle.

Ah. Well that information would have been helpful from them! Thanks for providing it. Exactly what I was looking for. I’m on day 20 since built right now so I reckon my number should get called any day now. Thank you, again. 👍

Of course. But they were playing games about losing price protection if I took it off. So in order not the blame those games or give them any “in” to drop price protection, I opted to hold it. But no they didn’t say anything about the actual production time taking longer. Just getting scheduled, etc.

Thanks for the info! Just to clarify, 3 weeks from getting initially produced to shipped or 3 weeks to be scheduled/etc.?

Well to be fair, she didn’t say she wouldn’t, she said she did not have the power to even if she wanted. She told me to contact my dealer. She assumed I must’ve bought from a local dealer who took it there to have the bedliner installed, which I gladly went along with After 3 weeks of no movement for one accessory install I don’t think a 1 minute call kindly asking for any information hurt anyone or bogged them down. I’ll contact my dealer again, but it’s probably still on status “Released to Body company”. Oh well. Just trying to gauge if others are in the same boat and how long they were in it, is all.

Is anyone else stuck in production status while waiting for their spray in bedliner to be installed? My truck went into production 7/26 and was built 7/27 (AsBuilt modules) and it’s been in that status since then. Dealer says VVR states it was released to body company. Shoot I even called GFX and tried to get them to track it down and they said even with a vin they couldn’t do it. Ok then how long does it usually take? They said only a few days once it hits their lot. So is my truck just sitting at a lot at KTP waiting to get driven down the street?? Frustrating. Anyone else in a similar situation with waiting for the bedliner install and no one knows what’s going on? Going on 3 weeks like this.

At a point, your catharsis simply becomes an annoyance for the rest of the members.

Isn’t that just a software update? They built the truck with the PM sensor, but programmed the computer for a sensor-less truck. Wonder why it’s taking so long. That’s weird.

Post hell raised: salesman called me and said he talked to their GM and they reached out to the regional rep to get in touch with me and to be on the lookout for a call. They also confirmed I am priority code 2. We will see if they are blowing smoke. I wouldn’t imagine they’d tell me to BOLO for a call that was never to come. Seems counter productive.

I have pretty much lost faith. Ordered 12/23. 350, Lariat ultimate, BAP, 5WP. So half of the options you have, nothing. Supposedly priority 2 as well. I am about to raise hell at my dealership.

I think what he means is, historically is this a good or bad thing? I.e. it’s “good” because it is delayed because they are scheduling more vehicles than had initially anticipated or for more productions week than initially anticipated? Or bad for whatever other reason. Or “no idea!” Is always a valid answer. Apologies for grasping at anything. After 6 months and no movement whatsoever, some of us will understandably start to get antsy.

Wow. Wonder if this is good or bad.

Uh...was it Mac Haik Ford? I have a super duty on order with them and this s%€* wouldn’t surprise me. I’m going to be on their ass when my truck is in shipping so they don’t pull a stunt like this.

I would call your sales manager immediately and see if they removed it. I have unfortunately heard of dealers taking it upon themselves to remove items they feel might “speed up” the process.
