Maybe tomorrow

I may bring my new F450 King Ranch Ultimate home tomorrow and I can hardly wait. The rear fender they repainted has to have the 3M redone as it was bubbly and creased but they got the loose clearance light in with only minor scratches. Nothing will be done about the dust or sanding marks, but lots of you guys have said that's no big deal anyway and it is what it is.
Ford left the entire front of the box covered in paper and taped in place. I assume this is for the spray in bedliner? I have never seen anything like this before. My sales guy said he would get a removed but he has no idea how they will get it out.
The wheels are really beautiful. But one front will have to be replaced where they put a hook through to strap it down to the transit truck.
I'm going to ask for a discount on an extended warranty for all the inconvenience. I hope to be driving his truck on Sunday as that's when moose hunting starts!
I would have brought it home today but the one mudflap was loose and that paper needs to be removed as well as the 3M.

That's one BEAUTIFUL truck!

I'm envious! My F450 is on order and will likely take months to get.

You seem to have excellent taste as well!
I like this combo. Reminds me of my old 99 white/gold.

I think I ordered this on the 25th of August. And the wait went by quickly.
It's like Christmas time now

a discount on an ESP? I already can get forum members $100 over cost and 0% financing on it. Unless they will give it to you at cost, why would you even contemplate giving them any more business?
