Possession is 90%. Haven't waited. Signed COVP order and agreed price at time of order and supposedly PCO was "locked". 4 months ago I was told I should expect a price increase for the vehicle. Stealership says, "This has been the way Ford has been recently." I promptly reminded them of price protection per the 2/15 price increase document and other subsequent increases since my order was confirmed on 2/14, I should be locked at price level 245 and maybe they should call the regional manager to verify if they needed help. It's been radio silence until recently. They will either honor it or they won't. I'll go from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant speak for everyone but i use fordpass often. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Jon Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 In search of someone with some contact(s) beyond what I have already that can help get this damn truck shipped or knowledge on how to make it happen! Over 5 months of waiting to ship is a little excessive in anyone's book. Dealer is of NO help,as they could care less. Last we know it's still sitting at KTP ramp/yard after being released in late March for shipping. I know this to be true thru a plant contact, but they unfortunately can't help once it's been released to the shipper. The truck is clean, no holds, released etc, but continues to sit as new, off the assembly line trucks ship daily. Talk about frustrating! Any help is appreciated. I almost would have rather been waiting for a VIN, or even not been built at all, than to have a built truck sitting in a lot somewhere, exposed to the elements and rodents for over 5 months now. I can only imagine the problems that may arise after delivery if, and when, it ever shows up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harry22 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 I've been patiently lurking and waiting on this forum since I placed by F-250 CCSB Lariat (w/ spray in bedliner and FWP) order at the end of January. Finally got scheduled for production week of 8/15, then delayed to the week of 8/22. Received window sticker and in production status on 8/17 - Batch 7748 505/582. I haven't received any updates since then. It looks like my modules were populated but still no blend date. The Ford tracker did change to show my In Production data to 8/26 even though nothing's change on my window sticker (still shows 8/17). Can anyone help me decode where I am in the build process? I thought you usually got a blend date before the modules populated? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSC502 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Originally scheduled for production week of Aug 8th but then pushed to Aug 15th. On 8/24 I received the email below. I can only hope it pushes to Sept 5th and I get my seats the way I ordered them. My Window sticker is also no longer viewable. Anybody else get the message below with no new date? We understand it has been too long since you last heard from us. Just wanted to give you an update on the status of your Super Duty F-350 King Ranch order. While production of your vehicle was projected to begin the week of August 15, 2022, supply chain challenges continue to cause delays and uncertainty. This is frustrating, we get it. We want nothing more than to get your Ford up on the line and start assembling it. And we will continue to work hard to reduce the delays to try to get you on the road in your new vehicle soon. We’ll be sure to keep you updated as we get more information, at least once every 45 days. Hang in there. We really do appreciate your patience and understanding.

River Wild Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Finally received the PO for the truck and for the most part it was priced as agreed including the PCO. One minor error which was corrected so it's all good. Going to sign papers tomorrow and look it over. Spray in liner goes on Thursday and drive her home on Friday just in time for the long weekend of salmon fishing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFT2112 Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Damn. Thats some bullshit on Fords part. my sales person told me if not picked up on next couple of weeks I’d have to order a 23. If I order from same dealer I understand that I will be in front of line. I’ve thought about ordering from a high volume dealer in Kansas. I’m going on 10 months.

I haven't been able to view my window sticker on the Ford tracker for a couple weeks now. Either Ford took them down for some reason or the program is broken. I have been able to view my window sticker on https://ordertrack.app/ . You will need your order number and VIN. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem I see is that if we all have to re-order as a '23, we'll all be "at the front of the line" with 100k other orders and we'll be stuck in the same situation where we don't get scheduled for who knows how long. I guess that I've been at the front of the line at my dealer since March as a Priority 2, so that hasn't really helped...
