isisrider Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 HI all, I recently ordered a new '11 DRW Superduty a couple days before Christmas and I know that the plant shut down for the holidays. How much will this effect my delivery date? My dealer told me about 8-10 weeks and maybe 12 because of the shutdown. I think I have my '04 6.0 sold, so I may be out of a truck for awhile............ thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denoncb Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I ordered my new F-350 Super Duty on Nov. 15, 2010. I just founfd out that I can expect delivery to the dealer about Jan 31, 2011 give or take a week. If you do the math that is about 11 weeks. Hope this sheds some light.

MaximumSVT Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 I was shocked when my dealer told me 8 to 10 weeks. I ordered the first week of December and am also now waiting. I wonder if it normally takes this long or the plant is just that busy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waloud Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 We was working overtime before the year was up. Now we are working 40 hours a week until March. This could change at anytime though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isisrider Posted January 28, 2011 Author Share Posted January 28, 2011 Well my dealer called me and said it is scheduled to be delivered 2-14-11. I did manage to find the window sticker online.............I am guessing that there is no way to track the truck now that I have my VIN, other than through my dealer?

Live4therut Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 Question: Is there any truth that the high volume dealers get preference on their orders? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2ksilverbullet Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 The term you're looking for is allocation.

I want to order a black 250 with black interior, Lariat. I would have thought they would have one on the lot basis the other post I just read but maybe I am just weird, haha!

Optikmike Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I ordered mine on 2/19 and was just told to expect it the last week of March, so that's about 5.5 weeks from the time of ordering. Of course it hasn't come in yet so that's subject to change... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
