When the dealer brought out the contract there was an over $500 doc fee. I showed them the X=Plan site and they changed it to $100. Would you have a link to that site, JIC my dealer is unaware.

I appreciate all the efforts for the KTP employees on here keeping people informed and the fact that there are several reports of trying to clear up the backlog, hopefully my truck will be one of the one's shipped soon. So, here is the latest update: 2022 350 CCSB 7.3L Lariat Ordered 02/16/22 Production 09/08/22 Built 09/24/22 Released - Waiting Shipment (ETA: 12/30 which has been pushed 5 - 6 times and probably will get pushed again). Another week has gone by, still waiting shipment. Here is the latest: 2022 350 CCSB 7.3L Lariat Ordered 02/16/22 Production 09/08/22 Built 09/24/22 Released - Waiting Shipment (ETA: 01/06 which has been pushed 6 - 7 times). Now that 2023 Production has started, any updates on when they will get through these 2022's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re keeping me updated on mine. I ordered mine a few days after you in February but mine wasn’t produced until mid November. It was loaded on rail last weekend and is scheduled to be delivered next Friday. Is your salesman helping you like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dealer has been great, they know where the truck is and has updated me a few times a week, especially the last month or so. The truck is obviously in the sea of trucks that are staged somewhere in Kentucky awaiting shipment. The dealer only can tell me what Ford tells them which is shipping by Jan 6th, but Ford as moved that date many times since November, so confidence its shipping in the next day or two is very low and a high probability the date will get pushed out again for the 6th or 7th time. It's going to be what its going to be, but I was more curious if Ford is 20%, 40%, 60% complete with moving and shipping the trucks that are complete, released, on hold and staged around the plant and KSW. If they were 60 - 80% done, then I would be more optimistic it will ship soon, but with the 2023's rolling off the line and taking priority on shipment and if they are only 20% cleared out, then I may have quite a longer wait. I've been disappointed in the whole process. I understand the challenges, just disappointed in Ford for not having a better plan and adjusting resources accordingly. If they would let me fly up there and get it, I would drive it back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

le engineer Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 My truck finally made it out of the Shelbyville black hole after sitting for several weeks. Ford marketing said it arrived at the Kansas City hub. That was a huge sigh of relief… until they said it will take two weeks to go the last 3 hours to Granger. Has anyone seen delays like that for the last leg? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly I'm fully expecting people to get their '23s before I see my '22. Mine's been waiting for shipping with no holds since mid-Sept. It sounds like some people who have been waiting for shipping since early Dec and mid Nov have seen movement, but if they are working their way back towards the oldest builds mine probably won't ship for another month or more at this rate.

Don't be surprised if base model 23s show up before higher trimmed 22s since they may not have any commodity restrictions. All things being equal, one would expect 22s to arrive first but I doubt it is that simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got my Shipped update Sunday morning,January 1st with a schedule arrival at my dealer of the 13th. I ordered Feb of last year, so I’ll be at the 11 month mark from beginning to end, assuming this last leg is on schedule. I’m in Houston, so 2 weeks doesn’t sound abnormal. Your situation sounds pretty over-extended. Maybe you’ll get it much sooner than the 2 week estimate. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And oh yes I’m definitely going to be getting some stuff for this truck. Especially stuff to keep the dogs off my leather!!! Haha. But that’s awesome to hear about the bumper. Also hoping it will help my truck look a little less lopsided with the long bed by adding the extra length on the truck. The damn thing will bd over 22’ long at that point. Land yacht! No more drive through for me. Looking at getting a 3” lift and shoving 37x12.50s under her! First things first with the bumper though lol. Only mod I want to do but won’t because I like my warranty is the def delete. Ok I picked up my truck today! And spoke with service department. According to them. My warranty would not be voided because of cattle guard. They also had around 15 New trucks with ranch hands installed. I’m going to have it installed. I think the risk of being stuck without a truck for months is not worth it to me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotodd12 Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Ordered 2/18/2022 Built 12/15/2022 Received 01/5/2023 So for me, it was a bit of a nailbiter, but my faith has been restored, and will have more patience next time.

Alex Kreh Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Good news everyone, my truck has made it to the holding lot to wait for convoy transportation following its trip via rail. It is in Petersburg VA at lot B apparently. I’m curious y’all’s thoughts. My estimated date for my dealer was today. Obviously that will not happen, and he said the estimation is now the 24th. I think this is just an automated push back seeing as the old date came and went. I’m thinking there is still a chance I see it this weekend and I feel like the date is nearly pointless as of late. Obviously any ideas are speculations but I feel like the holding lots after rail have been better. The only thing I’m worried about is my 8’ box holding me up. My truck is listed as “hot” but I also think so are everyone else’s. Let me know your guesses. Will I see my truck this weekend or will it be closer to the 24th? Good news is my 2014 F150 that I bought in 2020 and put 60k miles on was totaled and I will get $15,700 despite the fact that I only paid $14,500. This world is crazy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I waited up front, with mine not built until November, but with a shorter wait to ship. Can’t help but think they’ll be clearing trucks like yours out very soon so they make room for the MY23 trucks coming off the line soon. Good luck! I truly hope it ships asap!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIGBLKDRW Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Good Morning Gents, On just kind of a fun note... I was able to put the finishing touches on my truck over the holiday break. It took a little longer than I thought but I sure am happy with how it turned out. I made a couple little videos for friends and family and thought maybe some of you guys would enjoy seeing the finished product. I know that the meat and potatoes of this discussion is about delays, holds and general info, but we are all Ford truck enthusiast and I hope you don't mind me sharing my project. Let me know what you think. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ordered: 1/26/2022 Scheduled on: 7/14/22 Produced: Week of 8/15 Built: 9/29 Four missed delivery windows so-far. The last of which ended on 12/29, but I've yet to receive an update. I don't believe what Ford says about there being a rail car shortage. I think they have the same rail capacity as always, but because they shipped very few Super Duty's in September and October due to part/chip shortages they amassed a collection of 45,000+ trucks. Then they began shipping complete trucks off the line while also trying to ship the September and October trucks at the same time, but there are likely no/few ADDITIONAL rail cars available. It's not like there are 100's of them sitting around unused. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
