I just heard from my dealer in Utah (Certified Ford) that the 2005 trucks are being held up for testing for 30 days. They are keeping them at the factory and won't release them. It won't stop production, but what gives? Is there a problem? Anyone know anything else?

Not sure about that info as Sunrise Ford has about 20 or so units that are currently in route via rail.
My personal truck is leading the pack [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Brian,
Somehow my truck got loaded into a rail car this morning and yours is still setting in that great big parking lot at the factory, or Ford has not updated your order status and it's already in route [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
Don't worry, I'll still hold my part of the deal and wait to take delivery the same day as you, well maybe [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

There are many Houston area dealerships that show to have the 2005's in their inventory. Just browse their inventory on the website below. Not sure if this link will work or if they are even in yet, but they sure must be close to getting them. Both Gullo in Conroe, TX and Mac Haik in Houston, TX are showing them to be in their inventory!!!
