Looks like I drew the short hand for the infamous OKTB week. No availability for my Max Tow with 3.55 and 3.5 EcoBoost...From all indication OKTB has been achieved with a few option holds, as we have been getting all along. Should start seeing retail orders getting VINs that don't have the hold items, best I understand it anyway. Looks like KC is in OKTB status too for they have begun shipping a few gas models.
Sorry Kyle!
I'm looking at it as the hybrid with max tow.
So close! Max Tow is still holding me back... I have ways around it but I give up 1400 lbs towing capacity that I will probably never use but want. Back to the build and price tool to explore!From all indication OKTB has been achieved with a few option holds, as we have been getting all along.

Per your info, my build will likely not be available due to the Max Tow restrictions. Do you think I should reach out to my dealer, or hold off until next week?
I would hold off a bit more, parts could show up this week and release the Max Tow restrictions.
+1... my order is for a 5.0 w/ Max Tow, 3.73 locking, so I'm in the same boat - hang tight, years from now the (hopefully short) extra wait will be a thing of the past, but you'll still have the truck - get what you want long term.
Ahh okay. So these “restrictions” could potentially change daily? That’s reassuring. However, if that is the case; I’ll want daily updates on the forum!!
What? I’m on here frantically hitting refresh every minute looking for more insider info. The hardest part for me will be watching trucks come in that are basically what I ordered while my custom order is not rolling out until March. When I originally ordered I thought I’d be on the first to get the new truck. But I guess with a new gen change that is not the case. Had I known what I know now thanks to this forum I’d probably just bought off the lot.
I’m just afraid that while I wait for a max tow the hybrid will no longer be available, or my dealer won’t have allocations. Do you know how that works, Bob? If I’m priority 10, and an A plan build, but max tow isn’t available, could I get “pass up and replaced” by another hybrid order delaying my trucks for months longer?
Might be a brake assembly issue and not necessarily the rear end
