JT42 Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Well, 10 days out before build week. Contacted my dealer today about the price protection piece (MSRP went up twice since my order in Oct-21). Talked to the GM, and I will be honest, I genuinely think he had no idea about this. He contacted the Ford Rep for the area, and they ok'd it with a reimbursement to the dealership after the unit is sold to me. This was also ok'd with ford family plan pricing. I have a feeling the not so informed buyers, who have ordered a Superduty from the dealership have paid the price increases, some may have questioned the increase, but were put into the hard decision of like it or lose it after waiting 5 months. Thanks to @ice-capades for the documentation on these price increases, genuinely appreciate it. Best advice for others dealing with a similar dealership is to talk to the GM directly and provide the documents ICE has posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtlasBlue350 Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Finally! After 5-1/2 months the salesman called me today and said the truck had been delivered. Right now they are going through the prep work and hopefully in a couple of days they will call to tell me it's ready. Then the fun part of finishing up the deal, doing the paperwork, telling the finance person "I'll price out the menu - let's just get this done!". 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Late Apex 61 Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Just received an email from Ford. The production week for my 350 CCSB Lariat Ultimate 6.7 with 5th Wheel Prep has been moved from the week of 2/28 to the week of 3/7. Maybe that’s why I haven’t been able to pull it up on Ford Tracker for the last two days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliTex350 Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 My build date has been moved as well. Originally 3/14, now 3/21. Ordered 9/27/21, F350 lariat ultimate, antimatter blue, CCLB, BAP, moonroof, 5th wheel prep, no AS. Still at least 2 Months away from taking ownership, I'm sure.

Truck came in today and they are going to detail it and have it ready for pickup Monday. Took long enough. I hope the atlas blue looks good. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m at 8 months next week, without scheduling…Platti Tremor with many constraints…just asked SM to get with Regional Manager to drop Bedliner and move priority from 2 to 1.

I just called ford to see my order status from an order placed 12/7/21. And she said it says order processing then provided me with a vin number. Does this mean I’ll be in production soon? Thank you You can add the console safe and trailer backup camera on any new super duty truck that came with it or not. Your sport appearance package will cost a lot more to add later. If you got a under MSRP price on your order. You probably won't on your truck off the lot. For the amount you pay for the truck off the lot. You can wait for your order and have your sport appearance package, console safe, and trailer backup camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe in the next couple days we will see those scheduled today. So it’s taking a bit longer for ford to get the emails sent out if you have been scheduled? I’ve not been waiting as long as some, but it would be nice to know something since the dealership hasn’t been much help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you I ordered a 450 on 11/08/21 and have got nothing but a confirmation email. Did you call the dealership to see what your order status was? I considered canceling mine and going out west to buy one, but can’t justify paying a 15k-20k dollar markup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

posh Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 Here’s an ominous thought: you think any of these February orders that are already scheduled is Ford making the “Order your custom Ford” campaign good for the new customers?

What's the normal turn around between delivered and picking the truck up? Seems like a couple of days is excessive unless you are having the dealer add some items to the truck.

That's certainly a long wait. Hang in there. I ordered mine 8/17 and it finally got built 2/1. It's also a platinum Tremor. Ended up dropping spray in liner and 5th wheel prior to getting it picked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like a couple of days is excessive unless you are having the dealer add some items to the truck. The PDI (Pre-Delivery Inspection) only takes about an hour unless there are DIO (Dealer Installed Options) options that need to be installed. Otherwise, the only other time required is that needed to clean and detail the vehicle. Even pre-COVID, it wasn't unusual for a vehicle to arrive at the dealership in the morning and be delivered that afternoon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
