Yes, it is actually very fast. I'm not surprised as they probablt don't get many requests at the end of the year. 2012 are suppose to start off the line in Late June early July.

When I actually missed his call last night and he left a msg. I called him but he already left work and told the info he had. I did ask about the VIN and I expect to get an email with it today.

Very happy

Ordered Feb 15, 2011
On Train March 11, 2011

If a train is traveling at 45 mph heading south from Chicago IL when would it arrive in Phoenix Arizona. Isn't it all down hill?

I may get at least the VIN via email to check the window sticker online.

See you soon.
That's fast, les than 4 weeks, nice.
They must waiting for orders about now, no wonder the rebates go up.

I E-mailed my dealer when I was gone that if the truck came in it was not to be used for test drives, demos or street races I sujest you do the same.

BTW a normal freight train moves at about 55 mph so it will get there faster.

That was pretty quick. Now you will just have some sleepless nights thinking about your new toy and how to get home quicker.

with that being said have other people that have ordered custom ordered their truck been able to get those because i hear people saying they are going to use them but havent heard anyone say that they havent been able to?

Update: i just read on the F150forum.com a forum where someone asked the same question and a general manager that's a member responded by saying:

Question:The fine print footnotes for Fords current incentives indicate "must take delivery of Dealer Stock" Does this mean that these incentives do not apply to an ordered vehicle?

Response:The rebates apply on ordered vehicles -- they are effectively dealer stock.

But i will still leave my question standing on has anyone had any issue with the rebates when they ordered their truck because then i can verify my findings.

I ordered mine and got all the rebates that were allowed to me. The dealer orders the truck and when they receive it, it is now in the dealers stock. The dealer could tell you that you don't get them because all rebate are to the dealer not you yourself, if you read the small print and listen closely to the commercials. And I also got the X plan pricing, so no bickering with the price and they showed me the invoice with their price, A-plan, and X-plan pricing, so I knew they weren't lying.

YES! That's what I want to hear...

Was your Xplan price about 10% less than MSRP?

That sounds close, don't remember exactly but I was about $9k off the sticker (before my trade in).

Here's a x plan calculation from blue oval forum. I can't confirm if this is 100% accurate or not but it does seem to be legit.

X-Plan = Invoice - (0.4% x invoice) + Admin Fee

Invoice on yours was 65K???

If that was the case, it'd be 65k (invoice) - $260 + admin fee.

My59, please explain why your trick is sitting at the rail yard a month after arriving....is your dealership doing anything to help you out? Mine will be coming into the same location, maybe as soon as March 21st and I don't want to deal with that delay.
