Pergatory problems

So this is more info for others than anything, but I was one of the pergatory trucks. Picked her up last week, F250 King Ranch. Abdolutely love it! No real issues...but the A/C died 3 days after taking it home. Dealer checked it out and the system was empty. Used it for the 1st two days no problem. They put dye in it, has a leak somewhere. No real biggie ill get back so they can fix. Anyone who recieved a pergatory truck, or is still waiting and is in a colder climate maybe throw the air on and check! Havent seen anyother ones but who knows.

You were one of the purgatory trucks?
That has to be a strange experience, being a truck...in purgatory...

What changed you back?

I would suppose that with the missing modules due to the chip hold, they weren't able to properly test the HVAC.

No issues so far for me, everything seems to be fine. Towed the 5th wheel recently, did great.

DOT? My 2017 sat on the dealer lot for 10 months before I got it and it was trouble free. Go figure.
