OMG guys I am blown away, thanks so much for well wishes! Much appreciated!

Of course it was raining, seems every new car I pickup is in the rain.

First off, the other reviews here are right on. It's a bit over whelming not have a truck for 5 months and then get into a rocket ship with everything different. Drives like a dream and will put many muscle cars to shame.

I love the steering, the breaks are just a bit different but I've owned hybrids in the past and I was use to it by the time I got home. Fit and finish is really good. I found 2 very small blemishes that won't be much to fix at all.

The power boards are higher than my 2018 and louder but still very functional. It may just need a dampener on the motor mounts. Will look into that but by no means a deal breaker.

I got the bed-liner sprayed while I visited my Mom. I think they didn't get all the power hooked up for the power tailgate is not working. I did turn it on in the settings. I have to go back tomorrow anyway for they are swapping my tires, getting the Michelin Defenders. Worked a trade deal with the dealer.

The finance rebate is $1,000 now, so $500 more than I thought. I'll let it ride till just before first payment is due and then pay it off. I had a total of $4,000 in rebates counting the PCO and the dealer had locked it in, so all was good.

The light's at night are really cool and I love the new headlights, they are better than my 2018 KR.

Stereo is really really good but you need a good station and you have to get the balance and tone settings put right.

I just can't get over how smooth and quite this thing is! Looks bad a** too!

The KR interior accent color is more brown and less orangie than my 2018, very nice quality leather. Steering wheel felt really good in the hands. Love the new controls on the wheel, better organize and ergonomic.

The MPGs are right there and I was doing the speed limit and got on just a little bit. Was 4 lane but rural for 60% and city 40%, at one point I was averaging 29 MPG and that was a bit less than 1/2 way. 65 on the 60% and stop and go at lower speeds the 40%. We don't have winter or summer gas additives here so I'm sure that helps.

You really cannot tell when on battery or engine if it were not for the tac, except on take off from a dead stop and it is smooth.

Will have better photos tomorrow, got dark on me. I have lots of stuff to put on it tomorrow too, that came off my 2018, bed cover, tags, tools etc. Bought the splash guards for it while I was there. Have to take it to get the front side windows tinted next week. Not doing to much to it other than that.

The dash and center screen is the best!!

LMBO! ?

That looks AWESOME!!! (I'll forgive you for not putting the Stone Gray two tone ?)

Now I'm gonna bombard you with requests every time I think of something since you have my same truck haha. I'll wait for your interior shots before getting annoying.

Also this definitively confirms for those still wondering, you are missing the 4 front bumper sensors due to not adding the Copilot Active Prep package. Which means you should be missing the active park assist button above the sync4 (but I'll wait for the pics to confirm)

You are right, no front bumper sensors, sure was hoping but no. I of course do not have prep pkg.

Anything you want Tim, just let me know.

Congrats!! Don't forget the rest of us that are still waiting. . . .

I want, I will still be around.

I want to see the rest of ya'll get your babies in.

That is one sweet looking truck Bob. I forgot what color you got. Is that Space White or Oxford White?

I keep hoping every week I'll get some news on mine (retail order) but seems the commodity issue keeps them for doing anything with it. I've decided the Priority Code pretty much is meaningless. It went in as a 10 Ford changed it to a 2 a few weeks later and that's as far as it's got. Ordered on Nov 4.

Anyway enjoy yours I think you probably deserve it just a little more than the rest of us. With all of the helpful info you given us not to mention the long wait not only to get it built but the shipping was painful! It's about time damn it! lol

Again Enjoy!!!

 

[Bo15]

Congrats Bob! Great looking truck. Very happy for you; you've earned it! Thanks for all of the great info and help on purchase strategies.

My King Ranch (1/20 build) still shows in production but FordPass Connect and Activate now shows up on the app. Hopefully 2 weeks to go!

You better stick around my wife asks every morning "well what did Bob have to say?" Gives us something to talk about

 

[cogatti]

Well my new truck came in under the darkness of the night yesterday! Tracker updated just a few hours later, so it is pretty responsive. So my 12 Nov build arrived late 20 Jan, rough journey. Thank goodness for F150Gen to help take the edge off and a great group to suffer with!

Photos to follow later this afternoon!

Congrats......that's great...especially with a November build date...I placed the order for my Platinum on 9/9/2020...still no word, no bulid date...getting very aggrevated.....

Beautiful truck Bob! If I had been you I'd have had trouble sleeping last night and probably would have peeked out the door into the garage a couple of times in the middle of the night just to confirm I wasn't dreaming. Enjoy, and we'll be waiting to hear about all the fun stuff you figure out about it while we continue to wait.
