My first Diesel Truck on order

<hr size="1" style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">

Ordered a 2014 F350 SC Lariat 8' bed 4x4 on 25 Sept dealer said 6-8 weeks for delivery.

Don't know if this like will work or not here is the link to the online build

Build Your 2014 Ford SuperDuty

I also order it with the camper package it was not listed in the build your own options.

Congrats! Looks like you and I ordered very similar trucks (F-350 4X4 Lariat SuperCab 8' bed w/ Camper Package) on exactly the same date; Sept. 25th.

Just this morning my dealer called me to say that I should have a VIN by tomorrow, at that point the order can be tracked in near real time to see the current status.

In my case I have the electronic locking differential in my order, which apparently adds some lead time to the order.

What city/state is your truck being delivered to? It'll be interesting to see if those two trucks get built/shipped/delivered at the same time.

Enjoy!

Build date of 10/10, I'm guessing you put the order in around the week of Sept. 10?

Hey, folks!

Don't forget that I'll be happy to provide you with weekly updates on your truck orders. To get started, send me a PM with your order number and dealership name/state; I'll do the rest!

Nice trucks, if it were not for my Farm payment I would be driving a new Ford. They say Chevy strong but I would rather be Ford Tough.

Odd that we both ordered on the same day yet mine was built last week. I'm predicting that your build date will be November 1st, next Friday.

Are you Ford X-Plan by any chance?

Congrats n good luck with you new truck!

I ordered a 2014 350 Platinum diesel on 10/14. Order was submitted by the dealer on 10/17. I also made a last minute change on that day. By 10/22 I had a build date of 11/4 and a vin number! With a lot of luck I may be driving by turkey day. Woo hoo!
