Haven't been by any dealership lately but are they still as empty as six months ago?

They are at the dealership I have my order with. In fact drove by it tonight. To make it look they had a supply of trucks, they were parked nose to tail parallel to the street. And used vehicles were included, because I saw a Chevy in the elephant walk of trucks.

2022 is coming quick and they have thousands of 2021's in parking lots waiting for chips....plus thousands of orders. They will have to ship them overseas.

They are doing this because they know they won't be able to fulfill unscheduled orders.

I would be fine with that as long as there is one out there with acceptable colors. PB, 157" WB, etc.

157" WB trucks don't seem to exist on dealer lots... At least not king ranch/platinums

So this will bring the prices back down to MSRP. What a deal.

I've noticed they are few and far between around here also. I guess most folks don't want the long wheel base. I do because I tow a lot. I prefer a longer WB for that.

Bummer. I bought mine off the lot (there for less than one day, but still). I did the Build & Price from the ford website, but clicking on search local inventory found one with everything but the tow mirrors.

I was the only test driver - they had to prep it for me to try out. They discounted the truck was we all assumed tow mirrors would cost to seal the deal. I will add them later if I decide I want them - right now I am leaning more towards upgrading the camera system on my trailer instead.

I’m trying to work out a deal for a truck on a dealer lot and they can’t find this incentive. Have an unscheduled truck so should have it. Called Ford customer service and they don’t have anything on it either. Maybe their PR should keep their mouths shut if they aren’t going to actually offer it. Sounds about par for the course.
