Great pick up! Like the exterior look of Silverado and sierras… curious to see interior changes for 2022!
I was planning to wait for it, but this truck
If you have a sliding rear window in your TB, check it for leaks. That's why I sold my 2019 LTZ. After four attempts, they still couldn't fix it.

Most people don't know it is leaking for a long time due to its nature.

purposely got the flat glass without a slider.

Normally a sport guy (20 Iconic Silver Sport) but this color is amazing. I’d really like it in my next truck but a couple coworkers already have it haha.

Why not? What happened?
The truck I was trading began to develop an exhaust leak (RAM) for the 2nd time in 6 months. I was either going to have to spend $750 to fix it again or take a lower trade value. After FORD dangling the carrot with 5-6 reschedules, I lost faith in them to deliver it anytime soon and the excitement was gone. Just a compilation of things.

Then I started reading about issues with oil consumption on too many 5.0's, the availability of the new Chevy Custom Trail Boss without AFM or Auto stop/start, etc.

The routine delays also gave me too much time to think.

The final straw was walking into my dealership to check on another important piece to the puzzle and got blown off by my salesman who had done almost nothing to keep me updated on this truck. So after many nights of lost sleep, I found a Trail Boss and pulled the trigger.

The irony for Ford is that they had just pushed my ETA out another week when I did it. Then the Ford showed up at the dealership a month before their latest ETA to me.

Just a very frustrating ordeal.

Yeah, definitely sounds like it. Sorry it went down like that!

Yeah, me too. The dealer principal is a friend and the thought of backing out tormented me. It still bothers me some.. but he needed inventory regardless. I hope the fact it's a 2wd doesn't delay him selling it.

It's a great looking 301A 157".

Really dig the color and I love how the chrome works with AMB! Eagerly awaiting the day my order arrives. Hopefully sooner rather than later.
