Finally got my scheduled email today for 9/26 production.  Ordered 2/4/22

 

F-350 LWB

KRU Star White

 

I’m sure I’ll get bumped but this was the first communication I’ve had from Ford since March.

 

Welcome to the forum.

 

I waited almost 9 months for my F-450 and never did receive any communications directly from Ford. Since I purchased the truck from my local dealer, it is their job to provide customer service and keep me informed of progress. Your dealer has all the information available, make them provide updates. My dealer provided weekly updates.

Wow I thought I was taking long

8/26/21

i gave up at this point and was expecting to have to go and ordering 23 which I would not if they don’t price match

but at 819am this morning they emailed that my truck is scheduled for production and gave vin

week under 1 year anniversary.

it also was a f450 platinum 

with all the extras 

never took off anything because dealer never called me

Not to exited because by the time I get it,23s will be in production 

 

 

Hopefully, you will have it delivered sooner. To give you some hope, mine was delivered to the dealer (Metro Vancouver BC) less than 6 weeks after I got scheduled and received the VIN.

367 days ago I received an order confirmation via email

 

367 days later I received the following email:

As promised, we want to update you on the status of your Super Duty F-350 Limited order. We are still experiencing delays due to the supply chain challenges that Ford and our industry are facing at this time.

Please understand that while getting your vehicle into production is taking longer than usual, we are doing all we can to minimize the delays.

There’s nothing we want more than to deliver your new Super Duty F-350 Limited. We are fully committed to keeping you updated on your vehicle’s status, and will let you know as more information becomes available. We apologize for any inconvenience, and truly appreciate your patience and understanding.

 

I know Ice-capades has provided many suggestions but frankly I give up. I hate the dealer I ordered from and frankly I'm just done...*waves white flag*

Well, after a long and arduous wait, (ordered and confirmed 2/7/2022) I’ve finally received the email from Ford that my truck is scheduled to be built the week of Sept. 26th. No word from my dealer yet. What I’m wondering is given my close proximity to Louisville (150 miles) if it will not hit a rail car and go straight to a truck convoy? 
 

‘22 250 CC SB FX4 lariat ultimate 6.7, 3.55 w/ locker, star white, HD Payload, ultimate camera pkg, adaptive cruise, power running boards, LED headlights, sup. Heat, rain-sensing wipers, cab lights, upfitter sw.

 

I’d like to thank everyone on this forum including ice-capades for all the insight. Fingers crossed she gets built on time!

I see it is for trucks built after 9/5. I have two KRU that have been in production since 8/2 and 8/4. The modules populated last weekend but now both status on the VVR say in production sent off site. Do you think it could possibly to hold them to install the multi contour seats or is that wishful thinking? Or is it more likely that we are just stuck waiting on another chip or part? Both of our window stickers showed the multi contour seat deletes originally but now our window stickers have not been visible on the tracking this whole week.

There are additional posts, related to the Multi-Contour Seats matter, in the same thread with specific production information for earlier production weeks.

I gotcha. That figures. Just wanted to check. Is it weird to be in production for 18 days? And now I know it’s sitting offsite with status as still in production.  Did not have any constraint items.

It could be a reporting error but not likely if the information you have is from Vehicle Visibility which is very accurate. More likely is that there's a chip, a component or other work that needs to be done before the vehicle can be released. There are also a couple of recent New Vehicle Delivery Hold items that could be a factor.

Well technically my original window sticker had the MC seat delete on it so I should have it on my truck.

I am 24 days in production with a VVR status of sent offsite. Did you have wheel well liners or the spray in bedliner? I believe both are done at GFX. So I am kinda in the same boat. Was told any day now the bedliner should be installed and it should be released for delivery. Who knows.

I did not have a bedliner but I did have rear wheel liners. Maybe that’s the cause 🤷‍♂️

Has anybody that has taken delivery of their truck that was suppose to get the MC seats but did not get any discounts from dealer besides the 300 dollar credit from ford? I am to pick up my truck soon and will be fighting tooth and nail for more then just that 300 bucks with no work around or say so.

I also got scheduled on Thursday for Sept. 26.  Ordered 1/29/22.  250 CCSB 6.7 Platinum with extras like clearance lights, bed step, moon roof, console vault.  Advised not to order AS.  

 

Lifelong F150 owner moving up to Super Duty and 5th wheel camping.  Ordered a camper before the truck not having a clue about how bad things were at the time or how much worse they were about get.  

Joined this forum - learned a lot.  Dropped 5 prep and bed liner back when it was all the rage.

 

Shortly after learning camper was ready soon,  took the opportunity to buy an Anti Blue XLT ult. F350 CCLB 6.7 that someone ordered and passed on.  Paid MSRP minus 2500 customer loyalty.  Figured why not?  The way things are, buying a brand new XLT to drive and pull with while I wait for the Platinum - with the intention of trading/selling the XLT with a few thousand miles on it for a potential profit actually makes financial sense.  Took the wife a little longer than me to wrap her head around that!  I then put 5 prep back on the order.

 

Can't wait to see what the dealer offers me to trade it IF/WHEN the new one gets built and shipped.  Or maybe I'll sell the XLT myself if I find a buyer willing to wait with me? Central PA.

Ford provided very specific information on the availability and timing for the Multi-Contour Seats and is providing the credit for vehicles produced without the feature. The Dealer had no control over which units would be produced with or without the feature.

My dealer has been good…. And my salesman answers my questions promptly when I ask. I actually just put it out of my mind and haven’t really worried about but I’ve followed this forum and have looked forward to Thursdays wondering if it would be my day! Now back to waiting!

My sales person hasn’t contacted me since my order 14 Feb. Truck went into production just before the summer break and ended up being built 21 July. I went to the dealership and learned my salesperson had a major medical emergency and was in a coma for some time, but has since made a full recovery.  This won’t be the same experience for everyone, but before we speak ill of our salespeople, remember they are human beings too. Some may be sleazy, but some are good people too.

I was given my rail car number by Ford this morning. Is there any way to look up the rail car with this number?

Never mind. I found it. My is supposed to be in my region by the end of this week.

Emailed my sales rep at the dealership. Asked: “if I don’t get in the build process for MY22, will they roll me into MY23 with price protection?”

 

They said yes and they will price protect.

 

I know quite a few of y’all have been on order since 2021. Mine hasn’t been that long, but I definitely miss having a truck!

 

It still doesn’t make sense to buy a used one that is $10k+ over MSRP….

Ford has not yet issued a statement on how they will address unscheduled retail 2022MY Super Duty orders. Orders do not automatically get converted to the following Model Year, but Ford will provide information as to what the process will be for Dealers to handle the unscheduled retail 2022MY Super Duty orders. There are several different programs for other vehicle lines and in some cases, Ford will be issuing incentives via cash certificates. Ford's price protection policy applies only to within a single Model Year. Additional information will be posted as it becomes available.
