Quick order return

I ordered my truck on 1/29. It came in on 2/28. Is Ford that slow on work, or was I just lucky? I heard most ordered trucks took 8 weeks.

My dealer actually ordered one for me (but actually mis-ordered) two weeks ago. It is scheduled to be at the dealer on March 10th. I'm seeing alot more 4-5 week deliveries than ever. A few weeks ago, I decided I'd order one about the second week in March to hopefully see it after the first of June. Then my mileage will be where I want to be when I trade. Now, I'm not so sure I'll order one now... I may get it too soon.

I have never posted a picture, but I'll figure it out when I get the truck. It came in so fast, that the dealer was caught with his pants down and didn't get the BFG 12.5 x 35's I wanted on order. I got my seat covers and headache rack here at the house, ready for installation. I haven't actually seen the truck yet. One objection- I had to get carpet this time, because I couldn't get the audiophile stereo without it. In my line of work- man, that's going to be some dirty carpet! And you're right about the regular cab. It gets cramped at times, but I end up in some rough spots, and the extra wheelbase would be a bottoming-out problem. Not to mention the added cost, weight, and the "Queen Mary" turning radius on longer trucks.

My KR was ordered January 4, rolled off the KTP assembly line on Jan. 22, delivered February 6, 2008. I was amazed, the dealer said figure 8 to 12 weeks.
