After Placing my order on the 5th, my dealer is trying to tell me Ford cut off on the 10th, and rejected his last 3 orders. Can someone tell me if this is true?
He is telling me he found a similar vehicle, but is missing the shift on the fly.
PLEASE HELP [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]
Other than that if you can get it without ESOF (shift on the fly) be happy. There have been a lot of problems with the ESOF lately. If you have your hubs locked the manual system will shift on the fly just like the ESOF.

I ordered mine on May 7th from Bobby Williams. No problem that I'm aware of.
After reading this post I pulled up the ordering system and I have 19 Super Duty orders that were placed between the 5th and the 7th that are now showing Balanced Out. So, your dealer is definetly being straight up with you!

Just found out today and low and behold your order is one of the 19 that is not going to be built as a 2004 model. I will be in touch with the options that are available.

Well, I feel pretty lucky. My dealer found the truck I ordered with exception that it's Black/Silver. Everything else is exactly what I wanted. Turned out it even has the ESOF. He picked it up today, and I am going for it tomorrow afternoon. So much for sleeping tonight...
Good luck to all those who ballanced out. Hope you are as lucky as I was.
Why does everybody want a '04? Was there a $ increase on the '05's? I know the dash is ugly and it has the coil springs......................
Never mind, I think I answered my own question.

So whats the verdict?

I get to look for an 04 in stock somewhere that has what I want. Based on this thread http://forums.thedieselstop.com/ubbt...rt=2&vc=1I I will be in troucle if I don't find one with camper package. It really seems hard to find a truck without ESOF.

Bobby,
Is the pricing info released on the 05’s yet? Edmunds, Kelly etc don’t have it up, I’m specifically looking for F450 prices & specs.
Thanks
