The truck has been to the dealership 5 times now and had the trans replaced at 11k miles and still isn't shifting correctly. My personal opinion is that it's the programing but nothing they can do with that. So at this point Ford has offered to buy my truck back, which at any other time is all well and good but I can't buy another F250 or order one, so I'm stuck with this one until the 23' order banks open up.

I kind of needed a new truck. Mine was 10 years old closing in on 200k miles. That is older than I typically like. My order was delayed a couple times so I bailed and found one on the lot. First week of '22 production, dealer order. Mine has been flawless. IF the current insanity ever wanes I will go back and order what I want, probably not a '23 though, I think it will take longer than that to get their act together again so I am very happy to have a solid '22 to drive for now even if it isn't exactly what I wanted.
