Well you're gonna love your rig when you get it but time sure is gonna pass slow until then bro.

I keep my trucks for about 10 years and 200,000+ miles, so when I get a truck, I want it to have everything I want, and nothing I don't. That's why I always order them. Mine is scheduled to build the week of Sept 22, so maybe an October delivery?

Explain to wife in MAN's terms that you need a new truck. Cold lunchmeat for dinner isn't that bad, and eventually she will move back and probably come back to bed. In the interim, your baby will be in the garage! Good luck,

I had to give ya' rep's for that post...

Dealer I just went to hadn't ordered ANY trucks for the lot -- I don't care if Ford is slowing or not, if the dealers don't order they are...

Still looking for that F450 for $20k off tho....
