Baddestt Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 (edited) I am wondering should I have my dealer change my order from the 22 XLT Tremor 6.7 to a 22 Lariat 6.7 Tremor. Would this change my orginal order date of 4/20 and put me further down the line? And another concern is I am not sure they would be willing to honor the x plan pricing on the lariat now vs back in April. My gut just tells me to just wait until Ford has the commodity/chip issues sorted out for the 22 XLT's, however long that may be.

Changing trim levels means a whole new order, not just a change to your existing order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baddestt Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Yep. I am staying put, not making any changes. I'll stay with the XLT on order and just wait it out 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radio Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 OK now remember the XLT issue is not with SYNC 3. The issue is with UTT and PTBA camera options that display via the 8in center screen. If your XLT has SYNC 3 ( and it does) but no fancy cameras then you should be OK. For now. This SYNC 4 issue is separate/unrelated issue and I still can't find the original post in scheduling notes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the xlt 22 6.7 tremor on order, none of the fancy cameras, just the navigation system. But still, Ford says no XLT w/Tremor package will be scheduled....so that would include me, despite not having the fancy 360 camera options Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far more up to date and reliable status than provided by the marketing group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't paying attention because I don't have the Tremor package and the discussion was about SYNC 3 and SYNC 4. Sorry for any confusion because of that omission. Interesting that you can get a Lariat Tremor but not an XLT. Go figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that explains why my lariat hasnt scheduled yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My gut just tells me to just wait until Ford has the commodity/chip issues sorted out for the 22 XLT's, however long that may be. So yesterday around 12 noon (CST) I went to my dealer and finally caved and added in the HCTT package on my XLT 6.7. I already had the UTT w/PTBA package (53R) so by adding the HCTT to my order it just combined the 2 and is now 53Q. He also told me that last Thursday a SD before mine got picked up and that mine would very likely be picked up this Thursday! I was so excited... til I got home and saw this about the XLT hold on scheduling until further notice... such a bummer! However, what is interesting... when he made the change to my order the base MSRP and invoice price raised from the previous order submission... the base MSRP went from $46630 to $46880 and the base Invoice went from $44298 to $44536. I didn't catch this yesterday while at the dealer, so I called back this afternoon and asked why it increased. Of course the overall price increased because I added in the HCTT package, but I didn't understand why the base MSRP and the Invoice prices ALSO increased. He tried removing that package today and the MSRP and the Invoice didn't revert back to the previous prices, so he concluded that there must have been a small increase in base price since the last change to my order (5/29) and yesterday when I (yet again) made a change (6/21)... So, I don't know if that's what really happened, or if he really can change those numbers back, but he indicated that I am now stuck with the higher MSRP and Invoice price... so, moral of my story... quit making changes and just leave it as is and wait on it!! So now, on top of the additional $1029 invoice price bump for the HCTT package, I also got stuck with an additional $238 base price bump!
