Shop around. I experienced a big jump with USAA this year, but I’m sticking with them for now. Check out Hochheim Prairie for another farm mutual worth considering.
That rapid red looks great.
I’m at ~775 miles, ~200 of which is highway, and it is noticeably shifting much more smoothly in low gears. I have not experienced any rough shifting in higher gears.
Driveway photos. Picked up yesterday from the dealership. 3.5 hour drive each way, but was worth it. MSRP was $66,530, I got the truck for $60,395 before TTL. Not as steep of a discount as some of the below invoice dealers but I also didn’t have to fool with a plane ticket or a 10 hour drive...
I fully recognize I am very lucky compared to most in this process, and yet I can't help but feel some regret that I didn't just buy a lottery ticket that day instead...
I would have been a bit upset about that, I'm one of the few weirdos who actually likes the sport interior. My salesman even...
Well, got a call from the dealership, my truck arrived this afternoon without any warning to them. Hasn’t updated on the trackers yet. Assuming all goes well, I should be able to pickup on Thursday or Friday.
His original post on it said he did not get a built email. I'm thinking the salesperson may have misread the ETA for the current status as delivery ETA (seems this happens a lot), and gave our friend some false hope. FWIW, I'm seeing a lot of people posting on these boards with seemingly better...
I would guess that you were incorrectly told your delivery date is 6/20 when it was the projected ETA from moving on in whatever phase you were in to the next. I.e. someone misread the chart and gave you bad info.
Ford chat gave me a delivery ETA of 6/17, moved up from 6/22-28. I’m thinking it’s possibly a recalculation of the 21 days since it hit the rail terminal or something to that effect. We’ll see.
My truck was built on 5/16 and shipped the same day. It appears it was received in Pearland around 5/27 and has been sitting on ramp awaiting delivery since that time. Just checked today and there is no carrier information available. My delivery ETA has been 6/22-6/28 consistently since they day...
FWIW my shipping info never populated on ordertrack.app beyond “rail.” I shipped on Canadian National. Actually got one update from them before the car was moved onto BNSF lines. That said, Ford Chat was actually somewhat useful in providing me 2 updates over about a 10 day period, culminating...
My thinking is I have been incredibly lucky with my timeframe of order to production to (anticipated) delivery… but I don’t see things getting better any time soon in terms of price, available options, or logistics. So as I see it, those who got built in our week and take delivery sometime this...
