Robin Hood Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 (edited) Happy camper today! Picked up the second of two trucks ordered from a local dealer. Crisa @Oracle Ford in AZ was excellent to deal with. They were very responsive and straight to the point on all matters. Both F350, 6.7, 3.55, LB, CC, 4X4s. One was a Lariat value package, 11,400 GVWR and the other was a Lariat, ultimate package, loaded up a bit and a 12,400 GVWR. Truck #1 Ordered 4/9/21 and delivered 9/1/21 Truck #2 Ordered 6/29/21 and delivered 9/14/21 Thanks to this forum, I was able to learn about and get X-pricing on both trucks. Super excited and very happy with the trucks and Ford! I am a die hard Ford guy when it comes to my diesel trucks. These are number 8 and 9 in the long Ford truck journey. One more thing...I love the new screen and dash setup! Edited September 21, 2021 by Robin Hood 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From my own research I did find that out and I did make them put in a retail order for me. Just don't know what else to do after I've been waiting for 10 months since I started this whole process. Order another truck from a different dealer, I did first order was f350 platinum cc 7.3 order with AS but removed it 12 weeks ago. Ordered was moved to a 02 priority code. Still up to this past Tuesday when I canceled it unscheduled clean order truck 2 same truck different dealer small family owned ordered 8/30 dealer contacted reg. Rep and got him to switch to a 01 priority truck was scheduled 9/09 with a build week of 9/27 so how does this happen makes no sense my opinion which Ice Capades has said numerous times it’s a dealer issue not knowing how to work the system not a Ford motor company problem. But I would put another order in and take the first one they don’t care they will mark the other up $10,000 over msrp !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H-D FB 103 Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 From the time you get a build week notification/date, how long till the window sticker is available. Also where will the window sticker be to view? Will that show up in the same location on the Ford tracking site? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got my window sticker 9/9 and truck has production day of 9/16. Window sticker will be on either the ford tracker site or the Mach-e tracker 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gmkarr Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 New to the Forum. Ordered a 250 Platinum 4x4 Crew many options, but not AS. Ordered 8/3. Got a vin and build week for this week. Email last Thursday; moved build until next week. Hopefully! Enjoying the pictures of delivered trucks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scheduled for build Oct 18th Same week for me as well!! Fingers crossed that they improve the date. Looks like some on this page have had that happen. I’ve had a truck my whole life and this is the 1st time ever that I don’t and I knew it would suck but not this bad…… I never knew how much I really relied on my truck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because In Production doesn’t mean it’s actually on the assembly line. There are also delays waiting for some things that get added offsite. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve got one on order from them and I’m curious of transit time from factory to dealership. FWIW, I ordered my F-350 from Long Lewis in Hoover May 17. Built on 9/1, shipped on 9/4, arrived in Birmingham rail yard on 9/7. From there, it sat until 9/14, and delivered to Long Lewis that morning, picked up that afternoon. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ordered a F450 Platinum March 31, and probably like you, I've had a bunch of build dates. After one that said Oct 25 a month ago, I had my dealer cancel AS. Unfortunately, the system never reflected the cancellation, so they got the rep involved and cancelled in last Thursday. I'm hoping it gets schedule this week. I think they'll be scheduling for the build week of October 18. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too top that off I ended up with two PCO's of $2,500 off of each truck as well. Between the X-Plan, PCO and no-city sales tax, I saved between $7,500 and $8,500 per truck. Almost can't believe the prices I got these for in today's market. Super excited and very happy with the trucks and Ford! I am a die hard Ford guy when it comes to my diesel trucks.
