I was worried it would change again but was happy to see it move to "in production" a few hours ago. A few minutes ago the window sticker became available, too. I have the feeling tracking it once it ships is going to be difficult since my dealer hasn't pulled a VVR since I placed the order in early July and I think that's the only place you can get the rail car information from. Go to the vehicle tracking thread on here and give him your VIN and order number. I would wait for a couple days once it has shipped to make sure that it’s on a rail car. He will only give you updates once a week! Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew3c Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 So, barring a train crash or other natural disaster it looks like my F450 Platinum will have taken just over 6 months from order date to delivery. I ordered almost every option including bed-liner and it seemed to roll right through. I also ordered an F350 Tremor fully loaded on the same day and it is set to deliver the same week as the F450. So, all in all I will be happy with the timeline... of course, I haven't seen them yet... Related - the F450 with pics below will be for sale if anyone is interested. I ordered both with the intention of keeping one and not knowing which one might not ever show up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, I did not add Adaptive Steering on the 450. To be honest, it was a miss; I intended to order almost every option I could. But, in hindsight maybe it was lucky I did not. It seems to be the cause of delays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is this the standard for all F-350s? If the dealer removes this “option” will it increase the GVWR in turn increase the stickered payload? I have the same build, different color and 4.30 rear. Delivered two weeks ago. The 11,100 is standard on that build. My payload is 3754. yours will be about the same. Only way to get 200 more is with all-terrain tires. Bumps the gvw to 11,300. I didn't want them or 20" wheels. I'm very happy with the all-season tires and payload. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you trying to sell it for profit? or are you allowing someone else to purchase your order from the dealer that you ordered it from?

danielj Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Does the cleanup scheduling give any hope for those of us that have been waiting since April or May? With the black pack? My understanding is cleanup scheduling is getting some of the older random orders scheduled and completed. I could have that wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask them to be more specific on the 5th wheel package shortage. My dealer said the prep package isn't a shortage. Just the gooseneck ball kit. So I removed it from my order cause they said a b&w ball will fit the same and my dealer has the ford ones in stock anyways. They didn't say my 3.55 locker is a shortage.

danielj Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 1 hour ago, Mbrooks44 said: No where do I see anything that talks about the ball set up. It’s all called 5th wheel prep that’s the issue. To me it seems obvious it’s the prep kit, not the ball and hitch things that’s the issue. I’m curious if anyone else has heard anything on this. It sounds backwards to me too but my dealer said its the ball. I figured I don't have anything to loose by removing the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamilton Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Ive seen some dealerships placing a $5k ADM on "customer cancelled" custom orders. And used trucks going for upwards of 10k over new MSRP. My question is: with this shortage, has anyone been getting invoice pricing, or anything below MSRP? Would you purchase the extended 8yr/125k warranty and service contract up front or wait for a "Ford" offer? My order is scheduled 10/18 build, and knowing that the truck is coming home with me, have any of you been able to negotiate those prices at all? Thanks for the info.

I ordered 6/28 and no updates since. The restrictions on wheels and 5th wheel prep are not helping. I got the dreaded email last night that my F-350 Platinum SRW 6.7 has been pushed back again to Dec. 1st. I don’t expect this truck this year. I ordered 4-22-21, received VIN in 6-4-21 and the first build week was 7–26-21. It does have AS, and virtually every option available. My salesman is the New Truck manager and has been very non responsive. I asked for the AS to be deleted months ago and he never did so I ordered a 2nd truck from another dealer without the AS 3 weeks ago and got VIN and schedule build week of 11-1-21 within 2 weeks of ordering. We will see. Also received X-plan pricing from the 2nd dealer. Edited October 4, 2021 by Chris E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hypo Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 I noticed I can "see" my truck on the map in fordpass this morning in relation to where I am. I'm assuming this is a good sign that today is the day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kory04 Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 (edited) I just looked at my ford pass app and upon bumping the map near the bottom, it just put the vehicle on the map, and I could drag it around. I was excited for a second after seeing the previous post! This would be a good idea for the wish list section....have a real-time tracker for shipped trucks. Would save a LOT of phone calls from customers Edited October 4, 2021 by Kory04 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine didnt really know anything about it. I showed him Ice-capades picture of the availability, and apparently he talked to the regional manager and they determined it was only bedliner holding mine up. I suspect they are wrong though. I did get an 01 priority though in the process ?♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutofran Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Ordered 09/28/2021 F250 Platinum. Was told by dealer to cancel AS and 5th Wheel prep - both are on indefinite hold according to the regional rep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
