I personally do not see the purplish tint, and the last time I was at the eye doc, they said I was not color blind either 😀.
To me, the color in person is much more bluish-gray. I have even had a couple of people ask if the truck is blue or gray, but never purple.
Like you, I saw lots of...
i picked up my Smoked Quartz F150 about a month ago. Was also nervous about the purple tint from some video/photos. However I can attest I do not see that purple tint in real life. It is really a blue-gray color. I had Carbonized Gray as my backup, but happy with my color choice so far.
Happy to have joined the club. I picked up my truck from Granger on Friday. Was a short 3 hour drive, but worth every mile of it. Chip and the entire Granger team were great to work with. As others have said, best vehicle purchase I have experienced.
I think it depends on a lot of different factors that can make it hard to estimate for sure. For me, it took about 3-4 weeks for it to go from SE Michigan to my dealer’s lot here in the Midwest. In the end, it didn’t show up till about a week or so after the estimated delivery date range...
Nice truck! Congrats! My truck was delivered to Granger a little over a week ago. Working through the paperwork now and hope to be up there to pick mine up on Friday.
Enjoy the new ride!
Wish I could give some confidence around those estimates, but my experience has been much different. Each situation is different, and that estimate could be accurate, however in my case, shipping has been a never ending story.
I got the email from Ford that my truck had shipped back on March...
I feel your pain. I got the email from Ford that my truck had shipped back on the 11th, but according to my dealer when I checked in this past Friday, it hadn’t left Detroit yet. Looks like I have a few more weeks of waiting…
Nice! Congrats on the arrival and to all others getting notifications of their trucks being delivered! As we all know, this has been nothing less than a journey since first placing our orders.
Unfortunately for me, mine is still in transit with an estimated delivery sometime next week...
Congratulations! Happy to see some movement in everyone’s trucks as hopefully it will mean I will see some movement in my order in the next couple of days. I finally got a production date last week and had an estimated delivery date, but that estimated delivery date field has been removed...
After reading this (Thanks @MisterSig), I checked my status and had a similar update. It now shows a 2/24 production date, but an estimated 3/24 delivery date. Not big progress, but welcome progress nonetheless…
Misery loves company! My status has been “in production“ since 2/1; though, my blend date wasn’t till 2/7. I have not seen any movement or updates since my status last changed. Starting to feel as if my truck has fallen into the abyss…
I agree. I want to see more than a picture in a guide before I make any changes, but my initial impressions aren’t great. For the money I am spending on a Platinum trim, I was expecting something a little more. But as someone pointed out earlier, the BAP is a relatively inexpensive...
I never saw out on the Ford site either, and didn’t have it optioned on my original ‘21 order. I came across it some how and had my dealer add it as an option on my ‘22 order when I had to resubmit. It is frustrating in that Ford doesn’t seem to prioritize updates to it’s builder tool to...
