The wait is excruciating but it is so worth it. You are going to love the truck. My truck is awesome. Hopefully yours will come in with an 8-9 week wait. I waited 16 weeks to take delivery but once I got in a drove it. I never looked back.

The wait HAS been agonizing at times like BigStu said but if your like the rest of us and didnt want to settle for something that was on the lot. Myself, I only wanted to pay for what I wanted and nothing more. I am so looking forward to finally receiving my truck.

I'm the exact opposite, I don't want the overpriced/underperforming OEM stuff. Picked a truck from searching dealer stock online. Found the right color, motor, driveline and got the best price I could find anywhere...then started picking out custom leather, stereo, suspension, wheels, etc. while they were washing it for me.

Different strokes...but the wait for my truck was exactly 22 minutes, for them to wash it!

I stand corrected. My issue was I didn't want/ need a diesel but I wanted the 4.30 gears and the LED lights and power steps and I couldn't find one anywhere in a Lariat. So the wait began. Sometimes I regret the wait due to how impatient I am but I know it will all be worth it in a couple of weeks.
