New super duty order wait

Anyone have a reasonable guess how long for a new F250 if you custom order?

There is a 2021 order tracking thread. I think it seems like the average is about 10-12 weeks for people who ordered after production started on the current model year.

Check the tracking thread to see if there is someone in your area to compare total times to.

I ordered my truck on October 7th and it was delivered to the dealer on December 9th to central Wisconsin.

For what it's worth back in 2016 I ordered my 2017 in early Sept and got my VIN in mid Nov. When I looked at the window sticker online I saw the dealer ordered the wrong color. I had to go in that day and order a new truck in the correct color.

Both trucks showed up a week apart in early Jan. As production speeds up they start coming faster.

I ordered on 12/12 and dealer said 8-12 weeks. Take that with a grain of salt because dealers will say anything for a sale.

This isn't a fair depiction of typical wait times though. Didn't the production of 2021's not even start until October?

Well, my truck was ordered August 17. The original build date was Oct 26. The actual build date was Dec 5, delivery was later. I was told 8-9 weeks from my order date. No matter how you look at it, it wasn't 8,9,10,11,12 weeks.

Yikes, that must have been super frustrating.

I like my salesman. He is a great trustworthy guy. Ford told him 8-9 weeks. The head of north American media relations, Brian, told me 8-9 weeks. Ford just needs to keep better relations with their customer base. An email would have been nice.

12 weeks plus is a reasonable guess, if your dealer has typical allocation scenario.

Could be longer, could be shorter, but you asked for a reasonable guess.

If your dealer does not have typical allocation, or does not perform dilligence in order placement then all bets are off.

Reasonable wait, 6-12 weeks i think. I've ordered 3 vehicles before the one I have on order now, f150 took close to 20 weeks, gmc took a little over 7 weeks, chevy traverse took close to 5 weeks. F350 on order now currently 6 weeks waiting.

People reading this are going to get unrealistic expectations if they interpret this as 5 and 6 week waits .

Whats unrealistic about it? I've seen people report there f350 in less than 5 weeks, like i said my f150 took 20 weeks. Sat waiting for the bed liner for 3 weeks and then sat in the rail yard for 5 weeks. I think 6-12 weeks is very close to what it'll be. Is it a big window yes but things can dictate that very easily.
