Randy,
Thanks, that makes me feel much better! Seeing your truck is what made my mind up to go with Bronze Fire, just no Caribou. If the SRW trucks could get the lower accent paint without wheel well mouldings painted to match I would have gotten the 2 tone.
I am glad you like your truck, it is an awesome looking truck.
Enjoy.
Pat

The Window sticker has 9/15 as the date and on 9/16 Crystal told me it was at the status of "In Production with an ETA of 10/15, subject to change. I am perfectly OK with the 10/15 date, but am now worried about my truck still being listed as "In Production" for so long.
I hope it is not one of the ones that failed one or more inspections and is now held up....
Probably stressing for nothing, but wanted to reach out to the experienced gang here to see what people know.
Thanks.
Pat
In production is a good thing. The process of building has started. It might only be scheduling but started. Pay more attention to the ETA. Ping Crystal weekly and she will keep you up to date.

Just got an update from Crystal, our guardian Angel that my truck rolled off the production line yesterday and is now waiting for rail shipment to Oregon!!!!
ETA is still 10/15 at this point, but that might change if it ships quickly.
Now to get my 2012 sold.

Roy,
That is going to be a very nice looking truck, nice color combo.
Enjoy.
Pat

Roy did you order the wide track? Just asking cause a friend after selling his 6.0 dually and buying a F350 SRW didn't like the wandering his new truck has. I guess it didn't have sway bars or nothing and his dually did. Please guys I like these trucks and I guess I should of looked, Roy has the dually already. Jay just said there was a big difference and wished he would of ordered the dually.

I am pretty sure the Fat Boy (wide track) option is only available on the F450 now.

I won't say that my truck handles like a Corvette, but it tracks very nicely and shows no signs or tendency toward wandering either loaded or unloaded..
Wandering can be caused by a number of different things such as alignment, tires, inflation pressures (must be matched almost perfectly between all 4 rears), shock absorbers and sway bars...

You can try this link. It will only work when your truck is within about a week of starting production. Just add your VIN# on the back.
Welcome and good luck with your truck order.

Thanks LabCab. The VIN wasn't found in their system. I ordered it 8/28 so I was hoping for something by now. I thought I could wait 10 weeks or so but that's becoming really hard.

you can call Customer Service with your VIN # and they may be able to give you an update. I ordered mine on 8/26, so just a couple days earlier than you and mine just rolled off the line yesterday, now the long wait for it to get shipped and delivered in Oregon. This is the only time I wish I still lived in SW Ohio.... :-)

Get over 10 posts and I think you can PM.
Pat

I read on one of the FTE or Ford sites that the wide track is available on the F350 special order. Just thought I'd throw that out there. It dose come with the 4.33 rear end I believe. So if you want something different in the rear I'm not sure it is available.

My current SRW F-350 does not wander empty or towing. I tow a 17,500 lb... 42 ft... 3 axle 5th wheel with 4,300 pin weight. My current truck does GREAT!!...and I live in the Rocky mountains.

I am going with the Dually because I am exceed a few weight limits for the current truck.

The Wide Track is in fact available on the 2015 F-350 DRW. I would have selected it....Except....I would have to go with the 4.30 rear end. Yuck!!! bad fuel mileage. sticking with the standard front end (with increased weight option), I have the 3.73 Limited slip rear end.
