Yes you have to get the ultimate but if you get chrome or heavy front end it won't let you get power running boards. That's all I was saying. I ordered the f350 lariat ultimate with 20" wheels and power running boards but couldn't get chrome or heavy front

I have had two previous Build Weeks, 9/5 and then pushed back to 9/12. then Monday I heard from my dealer I finally have a Build date of 9/22. So I decided to get on chat and see if they had anything new too. Previously they only saw that the truck was ordered. My guess is I will have the truck by Nov 1st.
My question to those guys who have received their trucks, how close to the ETA did you get your truck?

Yes, this is true.
My dealer told me on average, it could be 8-22 weeks to get a truck when you order. mine will be close to the 22 when I receive it
