I drilled a hole in the latch lever inserted a split ring and attached a tether to that. I think that I saw instructions in a Youtube video.

The Army changed the rear wheels on their 2-1/2 ton trucks from DRW to SRW on both rear axles. I wasn't in for the transformation, but it looks like they just put on some wider rims a bigger tires. May have also changed the drums. Good luck.

My dealer has 4 F-350's and 1 F-450 in transit.
I'm asking for eyes on verification.

Heard that the OKTB went out last week for some. Has anyone seen any trucks being loaded to go out for delivery?

OK to start shipping is for gas trucks only. We will start processing them on 3/4.
Thank you, mine is gas. You have given me renewed hope.

I just got a text from my salesman that my 23 f250 ccsb lariate is supposed to be delivered the middle of this month... has anyone else heard anything? Seems a bit suspect to me since we haven't heard anything on the oktb yet.
Last week my dealer told me that mine was scheduled for delivery Mar 29. She did not know that the lots were filling up with MY 2023s; she said that those were MY 2022s. I advised her that most of the 2022s had been shipped and that the lots were refilling with 2023s pending Ford issuing an OKTB. She was surprised. So, little do they know.

You do not have to order a vehicle to get X Plan. If you qualify for X Plan pricing, you can buy one off of the lot. Once you sign into the Partners site, you can search dealer inventory and the prices will reflect X Plan and not MSRP.

When we purchased a Lincoln for my wife last summer, using X Plan, the dealer listed a $695 in Doc fees. I reminded the salesperson that doc fees were capped at $100. The dealer adjusted the doc fees down to $100. Under X Plan they may charge up to $100. They don't have to, but they will.

Moved the rear seat forward 3", with that it gives plenty of room for much more gear.
Also added a modified and reinforced little safe for safe keeping when needed. No extra holes or modification of truck, everything can be put back or removed.
There may be weak links, but not in my material or modification....the truck could barrel roll down a mountain and fly apart from the centrifugal force, but the rear seat is not budging!Did you just add the four 4 inch (?) brackets?
Does the seat back lean back a little more now?

I’m assuming I’m like some of you on here . I see lots of posts where people got their vins and a date . I haven’t . Ordered 10/27/22. No trims or items that were supposed to be job 2 and still nothing . Is it likely I have nothing because I’m priority 19? I’m guessing that’s the case . Just wondering if there are others like me out there
You won't get an email from Ford unless your dealer put your email address on the original order. You could go on the Ford website and query your order on a chat. You can also contact the New Vehicle Support Team for further assistance. You can reach them at 1-800-334-4375. Their hours of operation are 8:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m. EST (Monday-Friday).

I always use the e-brake and have never had a problem. Why isn't that a permanent solution? It's what you're supposed to do.
In cold climates, where it freezes and sometimes snows, I was taught to not use the emergency brake as the shoes have a tendency to freeze to the drum or disk.

Mine up at the top has codes in CERT/TRD/CAMP also. (I didn't find anything that defined these codes) I believe that date under 'special order' you have circled as 'invoice date' is actually the day the window sticker was first generated. (I believe that the window sticker is first generated when the vehicle is invoiced, so either definition could apply) I'm surprised that more info on these hasn't been decoded at this point. (Me Too!)
Knowing the codes won't help the truck get here faster, but I'm an information Junky. I just want to know all that there is to know. One of the codes was identified as the price code on a site and the price code on my DORA does not match what would be identified as the price code on my window sticker, so I didn't mention it.

My window sticker with the codes that I could decipher. I'll modify the sticker if I'm told what some of the other codes mean.Was invoiced on 2 Feb. Order Tracker shows In Production on 14 Feb. Truck build was completed on 14 Feb and My Truck is at ramp 1K Kentucy Truck Plant (Probably the holding area awaiting OKTB.) Its built. Completed on the 14th. Waiting on 6 campaigns to clear. And oktb

It looks like a lot of trucks have been built and are now waiting for the OKTB so they can be shipped.
Please only post what you know of the OKTB and if you do not work for Ford cite your reference.

You are purchasing the truck from a dealer, so they should be providing you with the information.
The dealer has access to all the latest information 24/7, including whether your truck is previewing, any holds, when it gets a VIN, scheduled to week, scheduled to day, in production, built and when it is shipped, with updates on the shipping progress.
When my 22MY F-450 was scheduled, I received a call from the Sales Manager, followed up with an email. He then had a salesman provide weekly updates by email.
Your dealer has a good operation. Many dealers don't.

Refund, I have been buying x plan for years and the x plan price has always reduced the sale price at time of sale. Even on orders.
The dealer may reduce the price increase at delivery, to the original order price, and then the dealer would retain the check from Ford that compensates for price increase. Or, the dealer would charge the customer the higher X Plan price and forward the check received from Ford to the customer.
-
Did the dealer receive and retain the check?

Hey all... I was scheduled to the week of 2/6 (today) by email. I have not received any followup emails. The US Ford tracking won't work for me either, but today the Canadian site switched to my build week of 2/15 (a Wednesday!) IIam used to a build week starting on a Monday, not a Wednesday. Is this a glitch or something else?

Feb 15 is probably your build day.

I believe the were H/T. I thought AS is some sort of a performance tire.
AS is All Season and AT is All Terrain

My 18 Lariat came with 275/65/18 Bridgestone tires which I was happy with. I upgraded to bigger Toyo Open country A/T III for my new 17" rims and they are very nice.
AS or AT?

They also increased the price on the folding Tonneau Cover.

It’s just a glitch in the builder system…
I can see why the rear corner step is on the drivers side now.

It is easier to call or chat with Ford customer service.
Looked on Ford.ca this morning and saw that truck is scheduled for week of 10 Feb with check and has a green light for production. This evening 2AM checked order track and it shows truck invoiced on 2 Feb. I clicked on window sticker and to my amazement, it came up. Maybe the dealer will send me something one day????
F250, XLT, CC, SB, SRW, Stone Grey, 7.3 gas, Ordered on 27 Oct from largest dealer in CO.

If your dealer only ordered one truck, you are next for that dealer. The 10 through 19 priorities are for that specific dealershiop.
