Truck ordered

Truck is ordered and can't wait!

FX4, Sterling Grey, Ecoboost, SuperCrew with 5.5 bed, leather interior and the FX luxury package, max tow package, black running boards. It will replace my 09 FX4 SuperCrew of the same color and bed length. Except for the mirrors, the 11 will look nearly identical to the 09.

It's been on order for about 3 weeks now, so I'm hopeful to possibly see the new truck around the 4th of July!

Congrats, that sounds like a sweet truck.
Good luck with the wait, it gets miserable. However I was pretty lucky with mine. I ordered my FX4 EB scab on March 17 and I took delivery 34 days later.

Congrats you will love it! I Have just about the same truck. Only I Have the 6.5 bed and the xlt chrome package so no leather and a few less bells and whistles. It is awesome! The mirrors kick butt. My only complaint is I wish my power mirrors had power fold like the Super Dutys have. I orderd mine on Feb 26th and picked it up on April 9th. The power is unbelievable. I still can't get over that it is a 3.5l V6 under the hood with the torque it puts out!

Thanks guys...

I'm really looking forward to the Ecoboost. I drove one and really impressed! I tow my Mustang to few tracks, so I was really happy about the tow rating of the TT Ecoboost. I'm sure most people won't even know that I've traded trucks, since it will look so much like my current 09.

Here's a photo of the current truck, trailer and Mustang.



My only regret, is that black was the only interior color choice....would've liked to have had something a little lighter in color, for those hot summer days. I'm sure I'll get over it though.

The truck is Sterling Grey and the Mustang is Alloy Grey...they almost match, but the Alloy is just a bit darker. Going down the road, you can't tell much difference.

Thanks,

My GT is pretty well Roushed out, with suspension, brakes, supercharger, CAI and a custom tune by JDM engineering......makes for a great road car and part time track car!

Congrats! I ordered an FX4 Blue Flame SCAB 5.0L Last weekend, so you and I are in the same boat. I know you'll love you're new truck! And I can't wait to see pictures of it when you get it.

I ordered a FX4 super crew with 6.5' bed in flame blue. Ordered May 5th. I'm hoping to have 2nd week in June! They said typically its only 4 weeks delivery but could be as long as 6-8. Btw this is my First ford truck as well. Im hoping it lives to all the hype!

Looks like a lot of F 150 sales being made. My local dealer told me that they had more sales in April of this year, than any other month in the last 3-4 years. That's not just F 150's but includes cars as well.

Guys...I found this in another thread:

If you have a truck ordered, call your dealer and see if they will give you the VIN# for it, if they have it. Then go to this URL and type in your VIN# after the = sign and hit enter. It will give you a window sticker for your truck. At the very top of the window sticker, it will show a 4 digit # in bold type, with the word BLEND just below it. Just to the left of the bold 4 digits, is the build date...as in...220110531 which should be read as: 2011 05 31 or May 31 2011. This works and the build date for my truck is listed as May 31 2011.

My new FX4 Ecoboost arrived at the dealership late Wednesday! Went to take a look at it yesterday. They have done the PDI, but it still needs to be cleaned up. I'm in no big hurry for it, so it will probably be Tues. or Wed. before I actually get it. It looks great!
