Surprise delivery

[bouvier]

We received a surprise phone call from Chip at Granger this morning. Our truck has arrived. This truck was ordered on March 4th, built in late May and went in transit from Dearborn to Kansas City where it languished. We took Chip's advise and ordered a '22 after losing hope that it would be delivered. The 2 trucks are identical (502a, PB) save for the color and the '22 has the CCD suspension option. Of course it's anybody's guess when the '22 would be delivered. Perhaps naively I think the production constraints are less severe than they have been, but the constraints are no way resolved. Like anyone else, I want quick gratification once an order has been placed. However, our primary need for the truck is not during the winter months.
Would you take delivery of the older or the newer Lariat?

Wow that's a tough one since it doesn't sound like you need it right away. Good luck with your decision

Hey man. A bird in the hand and what not. Also the incentives are decent right now for 21s with 0% financing. If I was planning on having this truck for a long time I'd take delivery. If it's more of a luxury purchase then waiting is probably fine.

TAKE IT!

The supply chain issues are year+ from being resolved.


FORD is AWESOME!

Take it. Incentives right now are good (0%/72 months) & those surely wont be around when you receive a 22'.
