Finally did it...

Ordered the new 2011 f-350 yesterday and traded in the ole 6.0 for it.
Today I saw the saleman and he handed me a copy of the dora, and he said tomorrow he should call me with the vin. and he said something about a build date, but expects delivery in about 6 to 8 weeks...
WOOT-WOOT

I'm new here and in a similar boat...err, I mean truck.

On Valentine's Day I ordered my new '11 F-250 Screw Lariat LB 4x4 with the 6.7L DPS. Black on black with almost all the options. Cost more than my first house but I can live in it if I have to. I could also probably tow that old house with it.

Dealer said 6-8 weeks but he also said they have been taking right at 6 weeks lately. It's only been a couple of days and I'm itchin'.

I ordered a black T-rex mesh grille as I can't stand the factory chrome one (sorry to all you purists out there) and a Roll and Lock electric tonneau cover.

Looks like I have several weeks of reading all the great info on this site. I have already learned a great deal and hope you guys will tollerate my noob questions.

Congrats to you rcorcich. I truly know how you feel and we will see who gets theirs first. The race is on.
