ETA April 16

[BIG BLUE]

ALLLRIGHT!!!! I got my ETA today of April 16.I ordered on March 9!You all had me scared 'cause I've been saving and looking at used 250's a year ago,then my wife said why don't we just get a new one,but guess what no 250s on a lot matching my wish list so we ordered.They said 12 to 14 weeks.I prayed it wouldn't take that long! This is my first post, although I found this site about a week ago,my wife and son were starting to treat me like I was crazy{crazy about a ford truck}I'm glad I'm not in this alone.
The only question I have is about rail dust.What should I look for and why dont dealers look for it? I assume its metal dust from train wheels and tracks which could scratch your paint if rubbed. Please inform me more before I pick up Big Blue

Big Blue:

Congradulations on your new truck. I dont know much about this rail dust issue.

Make sure you check that truck over real good before you sign the papers.
