Sounds like you got two options that are being held up, from what I can tell. I haven’t seen too many Tremor orders built recently, and it seems like 6.7s are slow to production as well. If it’s not scheduled by April 1, I would contact your dealer and make sure your on the list to order a 2023.
Invoice probably won’t be 8k lower than MSRP, but D-Plan pricing can be close. Invoice for my truck was actually only a little over 3k less than MSRP. For AXZD plans, the final price depends on invoice of the specific vehicle and dealer holdback. From what I can tell, the more expensive the vehicle, the more of a discount you’ll see on plan pricing and the bigger the difference between MSRP and Invoice.
I just got an email from Ford yesterday (04/08/22) saying they apologize for the delay, but they are working on it. I ordered the 2022 F350 with the Tremor package in platinum trim with the 7.3 gas. I placed my order 02/15/22.
That’s a badass order! That’s going to be awesome once it’s built, for sure. I’m not surprised that you’re being delayed, but it does seem like Ford is pumping them out pretty quickly now!
My order went in on 9/18/2021 F250 XLT 6.2L 4.30 gears Carbonized Grey. Truck arrived Monday and im picking it up this saturday. Right at 6 months to the day which im kinda surprised i got it that quick . A customer where i bought my truck waited 1 year and 3 months F450 dually platinum that is crazy. Longest part of the wait is getting the Vin once i got that it was 9 weeks to delivery.
Glad to hear your truck finally came in! 6 months isn’t terrible, but for the 6.2 and XLT, I would have expected a shorter wait. Must have been those 4.30s holding it up! It’s crazy that some are waiting a year or longer, but the 450 AND Platinum trims are both a good wait by themselves, let alone together! Enjoy that fine rig, you’ve waited long enough!
It’s a long, impatient wait..but it’s well worth it! If you ordered the black appearance package, make sure to call your dealer and have them remove the bedliner piece of the option. This is a new option and will decrease wait time.
I ordered my 2022 F-250 Super Duty in May of last year and just got it on January 2022. I took out the carpet but still put in weather tech mats, no moon roof, added a vault, Star white to match my bass boat, 12' screen, spray on bed liner, heated seats front and rear, black leather interior, B and O 10 speaker sound system, 360 camera system, and as a bonus because the truck is 81" inches tall I added auto fold out steps and it was worth the wait. This truck is a beast after coming out of 2012 F-150.
That wait…sheesh. But you optioned that thing right! I really dig the star white on these, especially with the black appearance package…and a matching combo, come on. That’s so gnarly! I plan to add amp steps to mine at some point, but I didn’t want to have anything holding up my build. You really made a huge step forward in tech and a GIGANTIC step up in size and capability! So glad you get to enjoy your rig, the rest of us are jealous!
@@beardedautomedia2261 thanks did I really need that big of a change ? No but I got everything I wanted because I travel to fish in tournaments and this truck tows my boat like it’s not even there …. I can now go 400 miles before fill up and even though def is just another expense, I don’t mind it. I couldn’t get the black out package because of the auto steps but I find that if I wax my chrome, the bug and road debris is much easier to remove. There’s a few things I’d like to add but in due time … Hoping the finish and steps do well during the Texas summers … thanks !!
@@countrygirlfishing If you’re towing regularly, I think overkill is acceptable. You’ll never encounter a situation where you don’t feel confident in the ability of your rig. Peace of mind is priceless. I’m a fan of the chrome too and I probably would have left off the black package had I known bed liners were a holdup. Sometimes you just need a good dose of shiny stuff on these trucks to make it stand out. To each their own!!
I hope I don’t regret not going with the 4.30. I’m wondering if it would have held up my build, but it’s hard to tell. I think you ordered one awesome truck! Thanks for watching!
Like you I have made ram buy back my truck with many electrical issues mine was a 2019 ram 1500 Laramie with 25,800 miles and went ahead and ordered my new super duty, I ordered mine on January 22, 2022 i did receive my email from ford confirming the order but that all for now. I spoke with my dealer couple days ago and no word on production lol. I ordered the lariat 7.3l crew cab long box like you cant wait until i get mine in
Hey, thanks for watching! Great choice on your order! Can’t beat having an 8’ bed. I have really missed my ‘97 long bed 2500. Crazy that Ram actually bought your truck back! I love my Ram, but it’s time to part ways. I think I am pretty fortunate to have been able to drive it for 3 years and 72k and have problems only recently. But electrical is just too expensive to mess with out of warranty. I really hope you’re able to get some good news on your build soon! Do be afraid to comment back if you hear something!
ford locked out restricted options that my dealer said push production too long. i couldn't do any roof stuff, no moon roof, no upfitter switches, no clearance lights, nothing even shows as available.
I thought this would start happening sooner rather than later. When they started slowing production and started telling dealers build times in the 8-10 month range, it was a sign. Now the order banks for 2022MY are closing on April 1, so the fact that you can’t get those options tells me they’re saving what supply they have on hand for builds either in the queue already, or 2023MY orders.
@@beardedautomedia2261 ya not sure ordering 22 when 23's are on the way was the best idea. but 23's should be released before mine arrives, so if i like it maybe i can just order a 23. not sure how dealer would like that, or if they'd let me. really hope 23 isn't huge improvement over 22, cuz i'd really regret not waiting then.
Truthfully, I don’t know if the ‘23 will really be any different. I know there are a lot of test mules out there with possibly new features, but there’s not enough press attention on them to make me think the changes will be on the 2023 model. Maybe more interior updates? For me, I really like the current body style and interior, so I pulled the trigger. If you order a ‘23, the dealership would actually benefit from the additional allocation. I’ve heard many people order a second truck without the constraints and just took whichever truck dropped first. The dealership won’t have any issue selling the other. Be aware though, ‘23MY are probably going to be more expensive.
I commented on your last video of the order review, I contacted ford and they were no help so I still have no word on my truck. Great video though! Look forward to seeing more.
No shame in commenting with your updates! I appreciate you coming back to watch another video! I’m disappointed to hear you’re not getting anywhere with Ford, though. But it seems like they’re still processing orders for now, so you never know!
Congrats on your order! I hope you have good luck getting your 2022, but be mindful that Ford’s production is idling quite frequently right now. Plus, I’ve been hearing order bank is turned off for 2022s. If yours isn’t scheduled soon there’s a chance you could be pushed to a 2023. But, like I’ve said before, that may not be be a bad thing!
Just ordered a 22 f350 tremor last Friday in antimatter blue I can’t wait for it to come in but then I would still have to wait to pick it up I need to get the dealer to install the 5th wheel pre package and a bed liner after because the dealer said it would easier to do after the fact
Congrats!! It’s definitely easier to add those after the fact. Hopefully you build gets underway quickly. Who knows, you might be upgraded to the 2023 model, which could be a good thing!
Window sticker will tell you the ramp code and the method of travel. However, the method of travel could say “Convoy” even if it’s on rail most of the time. The best thing to do to monitor shipping is have your dealer check the VVR in FMC Dealer. That will give you fairly accurate movements.
Ordered a 250 6.7 lariat ultimate, tremor and bap. Of course the only commodity restraint at the time was the bedliner but I had no option to do bap without the liner. Looking at fords site now, they have an option to do bap without liner of course. At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if my truck takes a year to get to me….
Great choice! Of course, I’m biased to the BAP and Lariat Ultimate. I’m glad Ford is giving customers the ability to drop the built-in options that are commodity issues. I think I would have opted to delete my bed liner if it had been much longer on my build. Depending on when you ordered, you might not be looking at a year for production, but I tend to think you may be flipped to a 2023 model year.
Seeing as there’s an option to get rid of the bed liner from the bap, I’m going to call the dealer tomorrow and see if they can do a change. I placed my order and was confirmed same day on 2/2/22 so we will see, I pray it only takes 6-8 months.
I’m right there with you! Sounds like you have a dealer you’re comfortable with, which is good in these circumstances. I hope it’s a short wait for you!
F350 6.7 lariat fully loaded ordered on August 31st 2021 and got confirmation that it was built and shipped February 16th 2022. I would have never guessed my truck would take 6 months to get to me.
I feel like as much as it has to do with constraints, it also has to do with powertrain with 7.3s being more readily produced. Either way, it blows my mind that mid-2021 orders still aren’t delivered. I’m thinking even though mine has an ETA, it’ll push way past it. I don’t expect it before mid-March, if then.
I just ordered a F250 Lariat 4X4 on February 11th and it was built and shipped out on April 29th. How long does it usually take to get to the dealership in transit? I am excited to see it and have never custom ordered a vehicle before.
It took about a half a day for me, but I’m also only 3 hours from KTP. I would say expect a month, but hope for a few weeks. It all depends on where you are located!
F350 ordered on 9-30-2011 and just picked it up 03-11-2022................For you guys that havent got your truck yet and are trading a Super Duty in on the new one, keep your old owners manual nylon pouch..........Pretty disappointed that I spent a crap load on the new one and Ford couldnt provide a nylon pouch for the owners manual and all the other stuff.............still shaking my head on that one........should have kept mine. If you ordered the 12K winch, make sure you tell your salesman to have the install techs be super careful and keep the trim panels
Great info! Thanks for sharing with us, for sure. Not something I would have thought of, but if you’ve owned a Super Duty this is a big deal! And definitely good looking out on the winch!
Yeah, it’s been crazy to hear about some of the trucks headed out west taking months and months to get out there. I have a feeling it’s about to get worse, but I really hope I’m wrong. We oughta just be glad we’re not in Alaska!
I ordered a ‘22 Lariat 7.3L 176”wb in Atlas Blue. I’m a littler nervous on the color as I haven’t actually seen one in person. I placed my order on 2/4/22. I got the acceptance email same day and have unfortunately not heard anything else since then. Dealer quoted me 3-5 months for delivery. Personally I’m not to worried about the wait just as you. I’m hoping within the next week I’ll hear something.
First off, thank you for tuning in! Second…you’re going to LOVE Atlas blue. It’s gorgeous in person and I half kick myself for not going that route to begin with. I hadn’t seen one in person at the time that I ordered mine, so I went with Antimatter because I had seen it. Not long after, an Atlas F-150 Sport CC “standard bed” dropped…and I was kicking myself. Not at subdued as Antimatter, and definitely not as loud as Velocity Blue. My build had already been picked up, so I didn’t want to chance it getting pushed due to making changes. I think 3-5 months is a fairly safe bet, so long as it gets sent to production soon. I think if we get too far into Q2 with continued commodity issues, I can see Ford suspending orders on 22s and either completing what they can, or flipping customers to the 23 MY.
@@beardedautomedia2261 when I ordered mine dealer told me not to go with the black appearance package as that was getting held up quite a bit. I did opt for the 5th wheel prep tho as it was half the price of the aftermarket ones. Other than that I think the trucks are pretty similar in specs from what I can tell. I actually did come across an Atlas blue F350 on my way into work today. It was a little darker than the pictures make it out to be but it definitely made me feel a little more comfortable about the decision. If we start getting to late into the year do you honestly think they will just push an order to a ‘23? This is my first time ordering a vehicle so I’m definitely green on this whole situation. Appreciate the reply. Keep the videos coming!
Thank you! Definitely have some coming, as the truck hit ground today! I’m glad you got to see an Atlas Super Duty. It really is darker than it appears online, so it’s a good “everyday” color. Good idea dropping the BAP… due to the bed liner included it is causing backups. Surprised you were able to place an order with a 5th wheel prep, most orders with those are getting kicked back. I think Ford switched from 21 to 22 around March or April of last year. If they keep with the same timeline, we should be seeing the transition soon. Just speculation, of course.
Waiting on a 2022 F250 lariat in the same color but a 6.7L Tremor. Ordered 11/24 and still unscheduled. Hopefully first week of March I will get scheduled 🤞🏽🤞🏽
Hey, thanks for watching! I hope you end up getting scheduled. I’m shocked Antimatter is such a popular color, because I hardly ever see it in my area. It’s going to look awesome on that Tremor!!
I have heard that more and more the last week. I hear 8-10 months from my dealer if you have one of the constraints, bedliner/5th wheel prep. If you ordered the Tremor with a BAP, I can see it taking that long due to the bed liner. If not, it must be that they just aren’t building Tremors in their cycle right now.
Ordered an F350 crew dully XLT last Oct. Have VIN, but production dates have been changed 5 times since first one in January. Now not till March 14. If we can find one on a lot close to what we want, we'll take it.
That’s a shame, really. It blows my mind that more XLs and XLTs aren’t hitting the lots right now. I’ve only see a couple 2WDs in our area. You might have to go used just to find one…and you probably won’t be saving much money either.
Great news!! That means it’s getting built! Now the real wait comes! The wait for it to ship once you know it’s built is pure torture…but so worth it!!
Just watch your video and have a question that you may or may not be able to answer. I ordered a 2022 F250 with Tremor package the end of January. I wanted the blackout appearance package but the dealership said Ford would not accept that package. I checked with another dealership out of state and they tried with same result, no blackout package. Do you know or does anyone know if this is just a package you can’t get with the Tremor currently? I have seen other F250 with and without Tremor package that are also getting blackout package….kinda lost on this one with no true answer.
Great question, first off! I’ll try to answer as honestly as I can, but this is purely speculation: Since the Black Appearance Package includes a bed liner, they may not be accepting it with the current commodity issues. It seems like not many Tremors are getting picked up either, but the ones that are don’t appear to have the black package and we’re ordered prior to January 2022. That’s the best guess I have, because Ford isn’t coming out and saying exactly what the hold up is…even to dealers.
Thanks for info….wish they would let you get black package without bed liner. Oh well, I’ve already been talking to places about getting grill, mirror caps and all badges painted. We use LineX for our beds and rear wheel wells. All of this after market will save about $1500 but you have to deal with scheduling and more time without the truck!
@@ryantackett263 I agree, I think the bed liner is a great value when you add it to a package, but with everything going on being able to delete it would be a great option. I’ve said it in one of the other comments, but I think I would rather have a Line-X liner instead…that’s another “oh well” situation. I‘ll live with it if I can have the black package. You’re after my own heart, planning out all the mods and don’t even have the truck yet! It’s a disease!
I ordered mine in first week of January. A couple weeks later Ford gave me a build date of February 28. Later they have moved it to March 7. All considered not bad. We ordered almost twin trucks. And yes I love the omicron blues I mean antimatter blue🤣. Looking for delivery "in California “
Haha, omicron blues! That’s a good one! Sounds like you’re inching closer to the finish line! Trust me, the worst of it is getting the “Built” notification and then having to wait for it knowing it’s built and ready to go! I’m 3-1/2 hours from the KY plant…maybe I’ll just go liberate it!
I really wish ford would be more open as to why certain builds are going through so fast, and others are taking so long. I ordered min January 19th and haven't heard a word since. Others have had 6-8 months of waiting to deal with. But then I read this comment and see people are having luck getting theirs built quickly.
I think a huge part of all of it is where you order. Some dealers have more allocation because they order and sell more Super Duty’s. Therefore, Ford will accept and build more of their orders. If you’re not getting anywhere, you might try another dealer. We’re in a more rural area, so my dealership sells a lot of Super Duty’s to farmers, construction workers, builders, etc. I got really, REALLY lucky.
I ordered my f450 xlt in december with a lot of options,,,, i had to order a second one in febuary without bed liner (sprayed) my dealer told me factory do not have any of the fender linners, funny thing is he can order them true his parts departement, and Ford does not share, factory vs parts departements, that causes delays. Wich will show up first? I have nooooo clue
Now that’s an interesting scenario! I was thinking that some parts were separate, but others are definitely still a hold-up for dealers and the factory. I’m curious to hear back which of your orders shows up first! You’ll have to keep us up to date!
Yeah, it’s a crap shoot as far as scheduling on the higher trims…almost seems like Lariats are the bulk of what’s going through. If they don’t have enough supplies to allocate to your build, it will keep getting passed over until they do. I think they’re freezing scheduling on Super Duty’s for a week or so…that could also be why you haven’t gotten an update.
I ordered a '22 Platinum Long bed 7.3 gas on Dec 1st, was at the dealer on Feb 12, (10 weeks, 2 days- not bad at all!) had it in my garage a day later- added plow prep, FX4, dual batteries, and upfitter switches. Price increase on mine as well, about $1,300? My dealer honored the price I was quoted. Added my own bedliner (Line-X) and I'm getting my own tonneau cover
You have no idea how glad I am to hear this! That has to be the quickest turnaround I’ve heard so far…just nuts! I’m really happy to hear that there are dealers honoring the price at time of order. $1,300 is $1,300. When you’re looking at a truck nearing or at $70k, every penny helps. I’m really wondering how big of a difference there is between the OEM Toughbed liner and Line-X. I always hear that aftermarket is better. Might have to do a video on that! What tonneau are you going with?
@@beardedautomedia2261 ok- First, I was told Ford subcontracts the bedliners to an out side vendor - supposedly they put them off to the side and do a bunch at a time...there is a video on youtube comparing ford factory liner to Line-X ..someone had a ford liner and didn't want it, they wanted the line-x. In 20 minutes they had the Ford liner out- once they peeled up a corner it came out in huge pieces... by comparison they tried removing a line-x coating off a tailgate, and it took like 2 hours. Holding the ford lier up to light, you could almost see light thru parts of it. As for the tonneau? Learned a lesson there already- -IF- You have an 8 ft bed, DO NOT order a hard folding cover from "Undercover"! I ordered the Undercover Armorflex, because I liked the fact it already ha a coating of Line-X on it and it seemed it would hold up well. As it turns out, when you get the 8 ft model, they do NOT put a latch on the 3rd panel back. Because of this, you can grab the rubber seal and pick the cover up almost 2 inches, making it very easy to break in to, and if you hit a bump it bounces up. Even the dealer was pissed when he saw that! I was told by manufacturer if you add a latch it won't fold properly and will damage the next panel if you try. I returned it, and the next one I'm looking forward to putting on is the "Bakflip Revolver X4S"
@@ednelson4793 GREAT info here. I really appreciate your time to educate everyone on these two items. I really hope that example of the toughbed liner was a one-off or poor QC. I’d hate to have to pay for that twice! As for the tonneau, I really loved my Bakflip MX4. That’s the hard-fold, panel design you’re taking about. I wonder if that will have the same issues as the Undercover. I do like the idea of the Revolver after watching a few videos on it!
@@beardedautomedia2261 I think the MX4 will be fine-I originally was going to get that one, and an aftermarket dealer told me undercover was better in their experience, and I liked the durability of the line-x already on it- they pointed out the undercover stored in a vertical position when opened and did not rest on the cab or window as the MX4 does. I actually saw a truck with the “Ford” factory installed folding hard cover and I’m 95% sure it was a Bakflip MX4 and I I remember it having latches on all the panels because I opened it myself, and it also leaned against the cab just like the MX4 - After more research I decided to get the Bakflip Revolver X4S (chose over the X4 because the X4 has like a piece of felt glued to the underside of the cover and a video from someone showed it coming off after a while apparently from the heat, and the X4S seems to be an updated version of it) I like the fact that when it’s open you can stow it rolled up and still partially see out of your back window with nothing touching the cab- hopefully it works out- the line-x dealer said he sells a LOT of the Revolver covers, though never an 8foot long one- it’s currently on order and should be here in a week or so- good luck with your truck👍👍
@@ednelson4793 we must be on the same wavelength! I just watched that Revolver video the other day and thought that would be so cool for an 8ft bed. I will probably get the MX4, just because I’ve had so much experience with it….we’ve had 4! OEMs have taken notice of Bakflip because Ford and Toyota both use them as factory options. I trust them for my next cover!
Great video. Very informative. I too have a ‘22 Lariat on order. Super Cab w 6.2 liter, Sport Appearance Package, Lariat Value Pack, 20” wheels, old man step tailgate, spray in liner and a few other options taking the MRSP to about $62K. I’m trading in my 2019 Lariat as I generally keep my trucks 3 yrs and then do a refresh. I ordered it about 3 weeks ago. No word from the dealer (very small rural Western NY dealer) about delivery yet. No firm pricing either but historically this dealer sticks pretty close to KBB pricing. I’d prefer the spray in liner as the factory drop in unit on my current Lariat never really settled in up near the top front lip the way it should have. I wasn’t really looking to replace the 2019 until Fall, but figured if I ordered the ‘22 now I’d potentially not get it until then(!)
Thank you for your kind words, I’m glad you enjoyed the video! That order is so different from what I normally see. I really dig it! You must have had a great experience with your ‘19 to order another Super Duty. Ordering from a smaller dealer may help, but it could also mean they don’t have as much allocation to have builds accepted. I would keep an eye on progress, however ordering this late may cause you to be rolled to a ‘23 anyway. Factory spray-in liner is a big hold up. If you can manage, I’d try to remove it. Line-X will be about the same price as factory and you can do it on your own time once you have the truck in your possession!!
@@beardedautomedia2261 Hello. My on-order 250 will actually be my 3rd Super Duty. All from the same dealer, which is small enough that I deal directly with the owner. Their ‘showroom’ holds exactly ONE car! When I ordered it the dealer told me that Ford was only accepting firm retail orders, no orders for dealer ‘inventory’ were being accepted. I was informed a few days after I placed the order that Ford had accepted it, but nothing beyond that regarding a build date, etc. I’ll keep your advice regarding the bed liner in mind. The dealer also mentioned 20” wheels could be an issue but I haven’t heard any more about that. Keep up the great work with your videos!
That’s great! It’s always nice to have such a good relationship with the dealer. As far as I know Ford is using its allocations to schedule those firm retail orders. It’s a good sign that yours was accepted! I heard 20” wheels were a constraint as well, but I think that was dismissed pretty quickly. You can always comment back if you see progress! Best of luck!
@@dannymofopans I don’t mean to speak for Don, but the 6.2 is a great option if your MPG minded and/or on a budget. Plus, some people really love the 6.2 because it’s been tried and tested longer than the 7.3. To each their own, really. All 3 of Ford’s platforms right now seem to be a great option for all levels of use!
I ordered tremor 6.7L with ultimate and blackout 10/20/2021 and still in order processing. As of today no update. I heard on ford forums could take 30+ weeks from order to delivery
It looks like you aren’t the only one in that position. I’m hearing 8-10 months on bed liner and 5th wheel prep trucks that have been ordered recently. That may be compounded by the fact that it’s a diesel. We had a lariat value 6.7 drop today. Nothing on it but upfitters. Was ordered 8/17, order changed 10/26 to drop bed liner and 5th wheel prep. They’re getting done, just not timely enough.
I order a antimatter blue 2022 f250, crew cab 8 ft bed on Black Friday of 2021. Got my order confirmed right away (same day) I still have not got a vin # or anything. The dealership wants me to delete my spray in bed liner and rear wheel well liners. I'd rather not go through the headache of getting the bed liner done aftermarket. This is a crazy time we live in.
Hopefully you got a good Black Friday deal on it too!! Great taste, by the way. I would say, if you really want the truck, delete the bed liner. Getting an aftermarket liner, actually may be better, because companies like Line-X take extra care in prep. If the black package I ordered didn’t come with the toughbed liner, I would have opted to have it done elsewhere just to get the truck here. It is a wild time, though!
Almost like buying a new f 150 as far as the pricing goes. I like how they finally include spray in bed liner for ya though. I guess once you get 60k and over they start to include stuff like matts and bed liners for " no charge" Otherwise that is a 300-500$ range option. Personally, as much as any of these cost they should all come with bed liners complementary.
I agree! My bedliner was part of the black package I option. Now with supply issues, they’re allowing customers to remove the bedliner on that package. I was lucky mine actually got sprayed. My truck did come with carpet mats, but if I wanted all-weather liners it was an additional $125 I believe. I like WeatherTechs better, so that’s what I’m going with.
I have a 22 on order that’s to be built on March 21. I may not keep it though. I received a $2500 offer from Ford in the mail on a new f250. The offer expires on April 4. My truck will not be at the dealer by then. I spoke to Ford marketing and they said they would not extend the offer. I feel that is sorry to say the least. So factoring that and the fact that the 2023 will be redesigned and out this summer I will likely tell them to keep it and order a 23.
That’s extremely frustrating, that’s for sure. I think a lot of people are ready to jump ship on their orders, and I can absolutely understand why. One thing to remember though: Once the truck is invoiced, usually happens about a week before it’s built, the dealer should have enough info to work your deal. If you don’t mind signing up before the truck gets here, you can lock in that direct offer. By the time you have to make your first payment, unless you live out west, Hawaii, or Alaska, I would say you’d have your truck. Just food for thought!
@@beardedautomedia2261 so I could sign the paperwork “buy” the truck before it arrives at dealership? That would be great and allow me to use the rebate.
@@rp9344 I’d check with your dealer, but as soon as they have the invoice and MSO, I don’t see why they wouldn’t let you. That’s what I was planning to do until my truck hit warp speed and got shipped lol
Bedliners, fifth wheel prep, and bed covers are being held up because they’re outsourced and that business is having labor issues. Also, at the beginning of February, Ford stopped all changes to Superduty orders.
THIS! I think this is the most likely of all the scenarios relating to orders being picked up. If you’re going to order, be certain of the features you want. There are some builds that Ford simply won’t accept due to those constraints. To me, they should close ordering on 22s and let themselves catch up with what they know they can build. Then start taking orders for 23s.
To each their own! For me, the up front cost of the diesel and maintenance cost over the length of ownership doesn’t make sense. I don’t use the truck for work, but for daily driving and toy hauling. I love the Powerstroke, but I just don’t need it.
I appreciate the info, and I see where you’re coming from. I’ve owned several diesels and gas trucks as well. From my experience, I’ve spent less for maintenance on the gassers than the diesels. Also, with the emissions roulette that you play with newer trucks, I’d rather not be caught by that out of warranty. At the end of the day, this 7.3 feels more than capable to suit my needs so far. I just don’t need a diesel, even though I would love to be able to justify it. I’d rather take that $10k for the 6.7 and put it toward other cool things for the channel. Maybe there will be a diesel in the future, who knows!
I get it, really I do. Ford has not had a discernible method to their madness. Keeping people in the dark is not a good thing, especially when they’re spending their hard earned investment on their product. I think a little more transparency would go a long way with buyers.
Ordered mine in January. Haven't heard a peep.
What did you order?
F250 Tremor 6.7
Sounds like you got two options that are being held up, from what I can tell. I haven’t seen too many Tremor orders built recently, and it seems like 6.7s are slow to production as well. If it’s not scheduled by April 1, I would contact your dealer and make sure your on the list to order a 2023.
Dealer invoice will be probably 8k lower than MSRP .
Invoice probably won’t be 8k lower than MSRP, but D-Plan pricing can be close. Invoice for my truck was actually only a little over 3k less than MSRP. For AXZD plans, the final price depends on invoice of the specific vehicle and dealer holdback. From what I can tell, the more expensive the vehicle, the more of a discount you’ll see on plan pricing and the bigger the difference between MSRP and Invoice.
My msrp was 74500, invoice 67700. 2022 Lariat 6.7 CCLB 4WD.
So your MSRP was about $6,800 more than mine, but the difference between MSRP and invoice was only about $1,500 more total. Interesting.
I have a 2021 F-350 STX 7.3 FX4. 4.30 gears ! Luv it !
Awesome spec! Glad to hear you’re happy with yours! Any issues with it since you got it?!
@@beardedautomedia2261 Nothing so far!
@@roadglide1142 awesome, that’s what I like to hear! I hope it stays that way for you. Thanks for watching!
I just got an email from Ford yesterday (04/08/22) saying they apologize for the delay, but they are working on it. I ordered the 2022 F350 with the Tremor package in platinum trim with the 7.3 gas. I placed my order 02/15/22.
That’s a badass order! That’s going to be awesome once it’s built, for sure. I’m not surprised that you’re being delayed, but it does seem like Ford is pumping them out pretty quickly now!
My order went in on 9/18/2021 F250 XLT 6.2L 4.30 gears Carbonized Grey. Truck arrived Monday and im picking it up this saturday. Right at 6 months to the day which im kinda surprised i got it that quick . A customer where i bought my truck waited 1 year and 3 months F450 dually platinum that is crazy. Longest part of the wait is getting the Vin once i got that it was 9 weeks to delivery.
Glad to hear your truck finally came in! 6 months isn’t terrible, but for the 6.2 and XLT, I would have expected a shorter wait. Must have been those 4.30s holding it up! It’s crazy that some are waiting a year or longer, but the 450 AND Platinum trims are both a good wait by themselves, let alone together! Enjoy that fine rig, you’ve waited long enough!
Good update. I ordered the same truck. Still waiting as well.
It’s a long, impatient wait..but it’s well worth it! If you ordered the black appearance package, make sure to call your dealer and have them remove the bedliner piece of the option. This is a new option and will decrease wait time.
I ordered my 2022 F-250 Super Duty in May of last year and just got it on January 2022. I took out the carpet but still put in weather tech mats, no moon roof, added a vault, Star white to match my bass boat, 12' screen, spray on bed liner, heated seats front and rear, black leather interior, B and O 10 speaker sound system, 360 camera system, and as a bonus because the truck is 81" inches tall I added auto fold out steps and it was worth the wait. This truck is a beast after coming out of 2012 F-150.
That wait…sheesh. But you optioned that thing right! I really dig the star white on these, especially with the black appearance package…and a matching combo, come on. That’s so gnarly! I plan to add amp steps to mine at some point, but I didn’t want to have anything holding up my build. You really made a huge step forward in tech and a GIGANTIC step up in size and capability! So glad you get to enjoy your rig, the rest of us are jealous!
@@beardedautomedia2261 thanks did I really need that big of a change ? No but I got everything I wanted because I travel to fish in tournaments and this truck tows my boat like it’s not even there …. I can now go 400 miles before fill up and even though def is just another expense, I don’t mind it. I couldn’t get the black out package because of the auto steps but I find that if I wax my chrome, the bug and road debris is much easier to remove. There’s a few things I’d like to add but in due time … Hoping the finish and steps do well during the Texas summers … thanks !!
@@countrygirlfishing If you’re towing regularly, I think overkill is acceptable. You’ll never encounter a situation where you don’t feel confident in the ability of your rig. Peace of mind is priceless. I’m a fan of the chrome too and I probably would have left off the black package had I known bed liners were a holdup. Sometimes you just need a good dose of shiny stuff on these trucks to make it stand out. To each their own!!
Your build is very similar to mine, same package 250, 7.3, black appearance, lariat, 4:30 gears and lariat value.
I hope I don’t regret not going with the 4.30. I’m wondering if it would have held up my build, but it’s hard to tell. I think you ordered one awesome truck! Thanks for watching!
Like you I have made ram buy back my truck with many electrical issues mine was a 2019 ram 1500 Laramie with 25,800 miles and went ahead and ordered my new super duty, I ordered mine on January 22, 2022 i did receive my email from ford confirming the order but that all for now. I spoke with my dealer couple days ago and no word on production lol. I ordered the lariat 7.3l crew cab long box like you cant wait until i get mine in
Hey, thanks for watching! Great choice on your order! Can’t beat having an 8’ bed. I have really missed my ‘97 long bed 2500. Crazy that Ram actually bought your truck back! I love my Ram, but it’s time to part ways. I think I am pretty fortunate to have been able to drive it for 3 years and 72k and have problems only recently. But electrical is just too expensive to mess with out of warranty.
I really hope you’re able to get some good news on your build soon! Do be afraid to comment back if you hear something!
I think we will both be very happy with the 7.3 it’s a work horse lol I don’t plan on towing much but nice to know the power is there
Absolutely agree! I drove one similar to how mine is optioned and I loved the way it drove. Plenty of torque on tap for a gas motor!
ford locked out restricted options that my dealer said push production too long. i couldn't do any roof stuff, no moon roof, no upfitter switches, no clearance lights, nothing even shows as available.
I thought this would start happening sooner rather than later. When they started slowing production and started telling dealers build times in the 8-10 month range, it was a sign. Now the order banks for 2022MY are closing on April 1, so the fact that you can’t get those options tells me they’re saving what supply they have on hand for builds either in the queue already, or 2023MY orders.
@@beardedautomedia2261 ya not sure ordering 22 when 23's are on the way was the best idea. but 23's should be released before mine arrives, so if i like it maybe i can just order a 23. not sure how dealer would like that, or if they'd let me. really hope 23 isn't huge improvement over 22, cuz i'd really regret not waiting then.
Truthfully, I don’t know if the ‘23 will really be any different. I know there are a lot of test mules out there with possibly new features, but there’s not enough press attention on them to make me think the changes will be on the 2023 model. Maybe more interior updates?
For me, I really like the current body style and interior, so I pulled the trigger. If you order a ‘23, the dealership would actually benefit from the additional allocation. I’ve heard many people order a second truck without the constraints and just took whichever truck dropped first. The dealership won’t have any issue selling the other. Be aware though, ‘23MY are probably going to be more expensive.
Also cannot order 5th wheel prep , wheel well liners or mud flaps .
I commented on your last video of the order review, I contacted ford and they were no help so I still have no word on my truck. Great video though! Look forward to seeing more.
No shame in commenting with your updates! I appreciate you coming back to watch another video! I’m disappointed to hear you’re not getting anywhere with Ford, though. But it seems like they’re still processing orders for now, so you never know!
I have put order in 2/18/22 or a F 250, has been confirm no word on production or built day
Congrats on your order! I hope you have good luck getting your 2022, but be mindful that Ford’s production is idling quite frequently right now. Plus, I’ve been hearing order bank is turned off for 2022s. If yours isn’t scheduled soon there’s a chance you could be pushed to a 2023. But, like I’ve said before, that may not be be a bad thing!
Just ordered a 22 f350 tremor last Friday in antimatter blue I can’t wait for it to come in but then I would still have to wait to pick it up I need to get the dealer to install the 5th wheel pre package and a bed liner after because the dealer said it would easier to do after the fact
Congrats!! It’s definitely easier to add those after the fact. Hopefully you build gets underway quickly. Who knows, you might be upgraded to the 2023 model, which could be a good thing!
Does window sticker also have the information for delivery?
Window sticker will tell you the ramp code and the method of travel. However, the method of travel could say “Convoy” even if it’s on rail most of the time. The best thing to do to monitor shipping is have your dealer check the VVR in FMC Dealer. That will give you fairly accurate movements.
Ordered a 250 6.7 lariat ultimate, tremor and bap. Of course the only commodity restraint at the time was the bedliner but I had no option to do bap without the liner. Looking at fords site now, they have an option to do bap without liner of course. At this point I wouldn’t be surprised if my truck takes a year to get to me….
Great choice! Of course, I’m biased to the BAP and Lariat Ultimate. I’m glad Ford is giving customers the ability to drop the built-in options that are commodity issues. I think I would have opted to delete my bed liner if it had been much longer on my build.
Depending on when you ordered, you might not be looking at a year for production, but I tend to think you may be flipped to a 2023 model year.
Seeing as there’s an option to get rid of the bed liner from the bap, I’m going to call the dealer tomorrow and see if they can do a change. I placed my order and was confirmed same day on 2/2/22 so we will see, I pray it only takes 6-8 months.
I’m right there with you! Sounds like you have a dealer you’re comfortable with, which is good in these circumstances. I hope it’s a short wait for you!
F350 6.7 lariat fully loaded ordered on August 31st 2021 and got confirmation that it was built and shipped February 16th 2022. I would have never guessed my truck would take 6 months to get to me.
I feel like as much as it has to do with constraints, it also has to do with powertrain with 7.3s being more readily produced. Either way, it blows my mind that mid-2021 orders still aren’t delivered. I’m thinking even though mine has an ETA, it’ll push way past it. I don’t expect it before mid-March, if then.
I just ordered a F250 Lariat 4X4 on February 11th and it was built and shipped out on April 29th. How long does it usually take to get to the dealership in transit? I am excited to see it and have never custom ordered a vehicle before.
It took about a half a day for me, but I’m also only 3 hours from KTP. I would say expect a month, but hope for a few weeks. It all depends on where you are located!
F350 ordered on 9-30-2011 and just picked it up 03-11-2022................For you guys that havent got your truck yet and are trading a Super Duty in on the new one, keep your old owners manual nylon pouch..........Pretty disappointed that I spent a crap load on the new one and Ford couldnt provide a nylon pouch for the owners manual and all the other stuff.............still shaking my head on that one........should have kept mine. If you ordered the 12K winch, make sure you tell your salesman to have the install techs be super careful and keep the trim panels
Great info! Thanks for sharing with us, for sure. Not something I would have thought of, but if you’ve owned a Super Duty this is a big deal! And definitely good looking out on the winch!
With how slow shipping has been you may have your truck before me since you live alot closer to me out west.
Yeah, it’s been crazy to hear about some of the trucks headed out west taking months and months to get out there. I have a feeling it’s about to get worse, but I really hope I’m wrong. We oughta just be glad we’re not in Alaska!
I ordered a ‘22 Lariat 7.3L 176”wb in Atlas Blue. I’m a littler nervous on the color as I haven’t actually seen one in person. I placed my order on 2/4/22. I got the acceptance email same day and have unfortunately not heard anything else since then. Dealer quoted me 3-5 months for delivery. Personally I’m not to worried about the wait just as you. I’m hoping within the next week I’ll hear something.
First off, thank you for tuning in! Second…you’re going to LOVE Atlas blue. It’s gorgeous in person and I half kick myself for not going that route to begin with. I hadn’t seen one in person at the time that I ordered mine, so I went with Antimatter because I had seen it. Not long after, an Atlas F-150 Sport CC “standard bed” dropped…and I was kicking myself. Not at subdued as Antimatter, and definitely not as loud as Velocity Blue. My build had already been picked up, so I didn’t want to chance it getting pushed due to making changes.
I think 3-5 months is a fairly safe bet, so long as it gets sent to production soon. I think if we get too far into Q2 with continued commodity issues, I can see Ford suspending orders on 22s and either completing what they can, or flipping customers to the 23 MY.
@@beardedautomedia2261 when I ordered mine dealer told me not to go with the black appearance package as that was getting held up quite a bit. I did opt for the 5th wheel prep tho as it was half the price of the aftermarket ones. Other than that I think the trucks are pretty similar in specs from what I can tell. I actually did come across an Atlas blue F350 on my way into work today. It was a little darker than the pictures make it out to be but it definitely made me feel a little more comfortable about the decision.
If we start getting to late into the year do you honestly think they will just push an order to a ‘23? This is my first time ordering a vehicle so I’m definitely green on this whole situation. Appreciate the reply. Keep the videos coming!
Thank you! Definitely have some coming, as the truck hit ground today! I’m glad you got to see an Atlas Super Duty. It really is darker than it appears online, so it’s a good “everyday” color.
Good idea dropping the BAP… due to the bed liner included it is causing backups. Surprised you were able to place an order with a 5th wheel prep, most orders with those are getting kicked back. I think Ford switched from 21 to 22 around March or April of last year. If they keep with the same timeline, we should be seeing the transition soon. Just speculation, of course.
Waiting on a 2022 F250 lariat in the same color but a 6.7L Tremor. Ordered 11/24 and still unscheduled. Hopefully first week of March I will get scheduled 🤞🏽🤞🏽
Hey, thanks for watching! I hope you end up getting scheduled. I’m shocked Antimatter is such a popular color, because I hardly ever see it in my area. It’s going to look awesome on that Tremor!!
Ordered a 2022 f250 lariat with the tremor, yesterday. Was told 6-9 months. so hold on for along ride haha
I have heard that more and more the last week. I hear 8-10 months from my dealer if you have one of the constraints, bedliner/5th wheel prep. If you ordered the Tremor with a BAP, I can see it taking that long due to the bed liner. If not, it must be that they just aren’t building Tremors in their cycle right now.
Ordered an F350 crew dully XLT last Oct. Have VIN, but production dates have been changed 5 times since first one in January. Now not till March 14. If we can find one on a lot close to what we want, we'll take it.
That’s a shame, really. It blows my mind that more XLs and XLTs aren’t hitting the lots right now. I’ve only see a couple 2WDs in our area. You might have to go used just to find one…and you probably won’t be saving much money either.
@@beardedautomedia2261 Update: We got our window sticker yesterday morning !
Great news!! That means it’s getting built! Now the real wait comes! The wait for it to ship once you know it’s built is pure torture…but so worth it!!
Just watch your video and have a question that you may or may not be able to answer. I ordered a 2022 F250 with Tremor package the end of January. I wanted the blackout appearance package but the dealership said Ford would not accept that package. I checked with another dealership out of state and they tried with same result, no blackout package. Do you know or does anyone know if this is just a package you can’t get with the Tremor currently? I have seen other F250 with and without Tremor package that are also getting blackout package….kinda lost on this one with no true answer.
Great question, first off! I’ll try to answer as honestly as I can, but this is purely speculation: Since the Black Appearance Package includes a bed liner, they may not be accepting it with the current commodity issues. It seems like not many Tremors are getting picked up either, but the ones that are don’t appear to have the black package and we’re ordered prior to January 2022. That’s the best guess I have, because Ford isn’t coming out and saying exactly what the hold up is…even to dealers.
Thanks for info….wish they would let you get black package without bed liner. Oh well, I’ve already been talking to places about getting grill, mirror caps and all badges painted. We use LineX for our beds and rear wheel wells. All of this after market will save about $1500 but you have to deal with scheduling and more time without the truck!
@@ryantackett263 I agree, I think the bed liner is a great value when you add it to a package, but with everything going on being able to delete it would be a great option. I’ve said it in one of the other comments, but I think I would rather have a Line-X liner instead…that’s another “oh well” situation. I‘ll live with it if I can have the black package. You’re after my own heart, planning out all the mods and don’t even have the truck yet! It’s a disease!
I ordered mine in first week of January. A couple weeks later Ford gave me a build date of February 28. Later they have moved it to March 7. All considered not bad. We ordered almost twin trucks. And yes I love the omicron blues I mean antimatter blue🤣. Looking for delivery "in California “
Haha, omicron blues! That’s a good one! Sounds like you’re inching closer to the finish line! Trust me, the worst of it is getting the “Built” notification and then having to wait for it knowing it’s built and ready to go! I’m 3-1/2 hours from the KY plant…maybe I’ll just go liberate it!
I really wish ford would be more open as to why certain builds are going through so fast, and others are taking so long. I ordered min January 19th and haven't heard a word since. Others have had 6-8 months of waiting to deal with. But then I read this comment and see people are having luck getting theirs built quickly.
I’m 73 and I hope it comes before I die🤣. Much longer and will be a 2023 model.
I think a huge part of all of it is where you order. Some dealers have more allocation because they order and sell more Super Duty’s. Therefore, Ford will accept and build more of their orders. If you’re not getting anywhere, you might try another dealer.
We’re in a more rural area, so my dealership sells a lot of Super Duty’s to farmers, construction workers, builders, etc. I got really, REALLY lucky.
I ordered my f450 xlt in december with a lot of options,,,, i had to order a second one in febuary without bed liner (sprayed)
my dealer told me factory do not have any of the fender linners, funny thing is he can order them true his parts departement, and Ford does not share, factory vs parts departements, that causes delays.
Wich will show up first? I have nooooo clue
Now that’s an interesting scenario! I was thinking that some parts were separate, but others are definitely still a hold-up for dealers and the factory. I’m curious to hear back which of your orders shows up first! You’ll have to keep us up to date!
I ordered my 2022 F-250 Platinum back on January 12th. No word yet on build date… SMH
Yeah, it’s a crap shoot as far as scheduling on the higher trims…almost seems like Lariats are the bulk of what’s going through. If they don’t have enough supplies to allocate to your build, it will keep getting passed over until they do. I think they’re freezing scheduling on Super Duty’s for a week or so…that could also be why you haven’t gotten an update.
Same here
I ordered a '22 Platinum Long bed 7.3 gas on Dec 1st, was at the dealer on Feb 12, (10 weeks, 2 days- not bad at all!) had it in my garage a day later- added plow prep, FX4, dual batteries, and upfitter switches. Price increase on mine as well, about $1,300? My dealer honored the price I was quoted. Added my own bedliner (Line-X) and I'm getting my own tonneau cover
You have no idea how glad I am to hear this! That has to be the quickest turnaround I’ve heard so far…just nuts! I’m really happy to hear that there are dealers honoring the price at time of order. $1,300 is $1,300. When you’re looking at a truck nearing or at $70k, every penny helps.
I’m really wondering how big of a difference there is between the OEM Toughbed liner and Line-X. I always hear that aftermarket is better. Might have to do a video on that! What tonneau are you going with?
@@beardedautomedia2261 ok- First, I was told Ford subcontracts the bedliners to an out side vendor - supposedly they put them off to the side and do a bunch at a time...there is a video on youtube comparing ford factory liner to Line-X ..someone had a ford liner and didn't want it, they wanted the
line-x. In 20 minutes they had the Ford liner out- once they peeled up a corner it came out in huge pieces... by comparison they tried removing a line-x coating off a tailgate, and it took like 2 hours. Holding the ford lier up to light, you could almost see light thru parts of it.
As for the tonneau? Learned a lesson there already- -IF- You have an 8 ft bed, DO NOT order a hard folding cover from "Undercover"! I ordered the Undercover Armorflex, because I liked the fact it already ha a coating of Line-X on it and it seemed it would hold up well. As it turns out, when you get the 8 ft model, they do NOT put a latch on the 3rd panel back. Because of this, you can grab the rubber seal and pick the cover up almost 2 inches, making it very easy to break in to, and if you hit a bump it bounces up. Even the dealer was pissed when he saw that! I was told by manufacturer if you add a latch it won't fold properly and will damage the next panel if you try. I returned it, and the next one I'm looking forward to putting on is the "Bakflip Revolver X4S"
@@ednelson4793 GREAT info here. I really appreciate your time to educate everyone on these two items. I really hope that example of the toughbed liner was a one-off or poor QC. I’d hate to have to pay for that twice! As for the tonneau, I really loved my Bakflip MX4. That’s the hard-fold, panel design you’re taking about. I wonder if that will have the same issues as the Undercover. I do like the idea of the Revolver after watching a few videos on it!
@@beardedautomedia2261 I think the MX4 will be fine-I originally was going to get that one, and an aftermarket dealer told me undercover was better in their experience, and I liked the durability of the line-x already on it- they pointed out the undercover stored in a vertical position when opened and did not rest on the cab or window as the MX4 does. I actually saw a truck with the “Ford” factory installed folding hard cover and I’m 95% sure it was a Bakflip MX4 and I I remember it having latches on all the panels because I opened it myself, and it also leaned against the cab just like the MX4 - After more research I decided to get the Bakflip Revolver X4S (chose over the X4 because the X4 has like a piece of felt glued to the underside of the cover and a video from someone showed it coming off after a while apparently from the heat, and the X4S seems to be an updated version of it) I like the fact that when it’s open you can stow it rolled up and still partially see out of your back window with nothing touching the cab- hopefully it works out- the line-x dealer said he sells a LOT of the Revolver covers, though never an 8foot long one- it’s currently on order and should be here in a week or so- good luck with your truck👍👍
@@ednelson4793 we must be on the same wavelength! I just watched that Revolver video the other day and thought that would be so cool for an 8ft bed. I will probably get the MX4, just because I’ve had so much experience with it….we’ve had 4! OEMs have taken notice of Bakflip because Ford and Toyota both use them as factory options. I trust them for my next cover!
Great video. Very informative. I too have a ‘22 Lariat on order. Super Cab w 6.2 liter, Sport Appearance Package, Lariat Value Pack, 20” wheels, old man step tailgate, spray in liner and a few other options taking the MRSP to about $62K. I’m trading in my 2019 Lariat as I generally keep my trucks 3 yrs and then do a refresh.
I ordered it about 3 weeks ago. No word from the dealer (very small rural Western NY dealer) about delivery yet. No firm pricing either but historically this dealer sticks pretty close to KBB pricing.
I’d prefer the spray in liner as the factory drop in unit on my current Lariat never really settled in up near the top front lip the way it should have.
I wasn’t really looking to replace the 2019 until Fall, but figured if I ordered the ‘22 now I’d potentially not get it until then(!)
Thank you for your kind words, I’m glad you enjoyed the video! That order is so different from what I normally see. I really dig it! You must have had a great experience with your ‘19 to order another Super Duty.
Ordering from a smaller dealer may help, but it could also mean they don’t have as much allocation to have builds accepted. I would keep an eye on progress, however ordering this late may cause you to be rolled to a ‘23 anyway. Factory spray-in liner is a big hold up. If you can manage, I’d try to remove it. Line-X will be about the same price as factory and you can do it on your own time once you have the truck in your possession!!
@@beardedautomedia2261
Hello. My on-order 250 will actually be my 3rd Super Duty.
All from the same dealer, which is small enough that I deal directly with the owner. Their ‘showroom’ holds exactly ONE car!
When I ordered it the dealer told me that Ford was only accepting firm retail orders, no orders for dealer ‘inventory’ were being accepted.
I was informed a few days after I placed the order that Ford had accepted it, but nothing beyond that regarding a build date, etc.
I’ll keep your advice regarding the bed liner in mind. The dealer also mentioned 20” wheels could be an issue but I haven’t heard any more about that. Keep up the great work with your videos!
That’s great! It’s always nice to have such a good relationship with the dealer. As far as I know Ford is using its allocations to schedule those firm retail orders. It’s a good sign that yours was accepted! I heard 20” wheels were a constraint as well, but I think that was dismissed pretty quickly. You can always comment back if you see progress! Best of luck!
Why a 6.3 over the 7.3 wtf
@@dannymofopans I don’t mean to speak for Don, but the 6.2 is a great option if your MPG minded and/or on a budget. Plus, some people really love the 6.2 because it’s been tried and tested longer than the 7.3. To each their own, really. All 3 of Ford’s platforms right now seem to be a great option for all levels of use!
I ordered tremor 6.7L with ultimate and blackout 10/20/2021 and still in order processing. As of today no update. I heard on ford forums could take 30+ weeks from order to delivery
It looks like you aren’t the only one in that position. I’m hearing 8-10 months on bed liner and 5th wheel prep trucks that have been ordered recently. That may be compounded by the fact that it’s a diesel. We had a lariat value 6.7 drop today. Nothing on it but upfitters. Was ordered 8/17, order changed 10/26 to drop bed liner and 5th wheel prep. They’re getting done, just not timely enough.
I order a antimatter blue 2022 f250, crew cab 8 ft bed on Black Friday of 2021. Got my order confirmed right away (same day) I still have not got a vin # or anything. The dealership wants me to delete my spray in bed liner and rear wheel well liners. I'd rather not go through the headache of getting the bed liner done aftermarket. This is a crazy time we live in.
Hopefully you got a good Black Friday deal on it too!! Great taste, by the way. I would say, if you really want the truck, delete the bed liner. Getting an aftermarket liner, actually may be better, because companies like Line-X take extra care in prep. If the black package I ordered didn’t come with the toughbed liner, I would have opted to have it done elsewhere just to get the truck here. It is a wild time, though!
Almost like buying a new f 150 as far as the pricing goes. I like how they finally include spray in bed liner for ya though. I guess once you get 60k and over they start to include stuff like matts and bed liners for " no charge" Otherwise that is a 300-500$ range option. Personally, as much as any of these cost they should all come with bed liners complementary.
I agree! My bedliner was part of the black package I option. Now with supply issues, they’re allowing customers to remove the bedliner on that package. I was lucky mine actually got sprayed. My truck did come with carpet mats, but if I wanted all-weather liners it was an additional $125 I believe. I like WeatherTechs better, so that’s what I’m going with.
I have a 22 on order that’s to be built on March 21. I may not keep it though. I received a $2500 offer from Ford in the mail on a new f250. The offer expires on April 4. My truck will not be at the dealer by then. I spoke to Ford marketing and they said they would not extend the offer. I feel that is sorry to say the least. So factoring that and the fact that the 2023 will be redesigned and out this summer I will likely tell them to keep it and order a 23.
That’s extremely frustrating, that’s for sure. I think a lot of people are ready to jump ship on their orders, and I can absolutely understand why. One thing to remember though:
Once the truck is invoiced, usually happens about a week before it’s built, the dealer should have enough info to work your deal. If you don’t mind signing up before the truck gets here, you can lock in that direct offer. By the time you have to make your first payment, unless you live out west, Hawaii, or Alaska, I would say you’d have your truck. Just food for thought!
@@beardedautomedia2261 so I could sign the paperwork “buy” the truck before it arrives at dealership? That would be great and allow me to use the rebate.
@@rp9344 I’d check with your dealer, but as soon as they have the invoice and MSO, I don’t see why they wouldn’t let you. That’s what I was planning to do until my truck hit warp speed and got shipped lol
Bedliners, fifth wheel prep, and bed covers are being held up because they’re outsourced and that business is having labor issues. Also, at the beginning of February, Ford stopped all changes to Superduty orders.
THIS! I think this is the most likely of all the scenarios relating to orders being picked up. If you’re going to order, be certain of the features you want. There are some builds that Ford simply won’t accept due to those constraints. To me, they should close ordering on 22s and let themselves catch up with what they know they can build. Then start taking orders for 23s.
Oops. Delivery first week of April.
No worries!!
No diesel ? No good , big big mistake
To each their own! For me, the up front cost of the diesel and maintenance cost over the length of ownership doesn’t make sense. I don’t use the truck for work, but for daily driving and toy hauling. I love the Powerstroke, but I just don’t need it.
I appreciate the info, and I see where you’re coming from. I’ve owned several diesels and gas trucks as well. From my experience, I’ve spent less for maintenance on the gassers than the diesels. Also, with the emissions roulette that you play with newer trucks, I’d rather not be caught by that out of warranty.
At the end of the day, this 7.3 feels more than capable to suit my needs so far. I just don’t need a diesel, even though I would love to be able to justify it. I’d rather take that $10k for the 6.7 and put it toward other cool things for the channel. Maybe there will be a diesel in the future, who knows!
I ordered a f450 almost 11 months ago and still don’t have it. I’m done with ford.
I get it, really I do. Ford has not had a discernible method to their madness. Keeping people in the dark is not a good thing, especially when they’re spending their hard earned investment on their product. I think a little more transparency would go a long way with buyers.
