Woo-Hoo !!!

Dealer called yesterday morning and said he was starring at our new dually.
4-weeks to the day I ordered it, put 56 miles on it last nite.
What a beautiful truck. Can't wait to see how it tow's compared to the old 6.0 .

...coming from a 6.0 myself, you will be so happy. My new truck does a better job in every way than my 04. I was running a 75 hp heavy tow tune on the 6.0 and it was still not as strong as the 6.7.

Congratulations on the early arrival

Regards

Same here, just picked mine up last night and wow, I'm impressed. I too traded my 05 6.0 that I had just bought two months ago. Never thought I'd have a truck with cooled seats

Congratulations!
I am at 5 weeks exactly and I do not have even a VIN number yet.Oh well, I guess I will have a bigger down payment the longer it goes.
But I am starting to get jealous.

How long did it take after ordering, for you to get a build date?

I am REALLY happy for you guys, but I am pretty hacked off right now. I ordered mine on 1/24, and was told I would get it on 3/7. That date was missed, then I was told 3/14. Now that date has passed. Yesterday, Ford CRC wouldn't even give me a new ETA. My window sticker shows it was allegedly built on 2/25. Someone better get on the ball...

Don't feel so bad. I was on cloud 9 today when I punched in my VIN and got my window sticker. Build date was supposed to be yesterday. I checked the sticker and everything looked good. All the options I ordered were there, the color was right. Perfect...then I noticed at the top..."172 WB" what?!! I ordered a shortbox !

A call to the dealer this afternoon and all I got was "we'll look into it and get back to you". I placed my order on Jan. 31. I was looking forward to a mid-April delivery. Now, I don't know when my truck will arrive.

At this point in time if you were buying your truck with my money you would be walking...
