Talking Which one will come in first?

Which will come first? I know this is a guessing game but if you want to try we will see.

Nov 9th I ordered a KR Ultimate loaded, Azure Gray, sunroof, max recline....etc. 2 notifications from ford, order received and then a 45 we will keep you posted. Problem is you cannot get the KR in Azure w/o the chrome package which I am not a fan.

So fast forward to March 11th I ordered a Lariat Ultimate in Azure Gray and the Black Appearance Package, no max recline seats, with sunroof...etc. Order notification received, that's all.

I will probably take the one that comes in first but want the Lariat BAP a little more and hoping it comes in first.

Edit: Both are normal 6.7 diesels.

Anyone care to guess?

I think they'll be focused on scheduling the Job 2 builds so I think the KR will show first. But I also think the sunroof might be a constraining factor too. Good luck, sir!

Thank you, and just an FYI, the Lariat Ultimate BAP is job 2 as well. I was hoping since it's not the "premium" trim it might come in sooner.

I opted to not select things I would have liked to have been handled at the factory, accessory wise. My build is also fairly straight forward though I wonder if the wheels and running boards will end up in the constrained pile and set me back. SAP includes both, but I really like the look of the truck w/ less chrome and more black so I’m sticking with it.

No rhyme or reason to it. They will build the one they have the parts for first, total crap shoot as the commodity holds are ever changing it seems. I bet you will get one eventually

Not one person here or even working at the Kentucky Truck plant can answer which will be built first.

I would bet on the King Ranch for a couple reasons. First would be date of order, second would be that all KR were on a Job 2 hold, and Ford may want to get those knocked out as quickly as they can. Another reason would be where the second order is in the allocation tables for the dealer. The KR would be at their top of the allocation list when Job 2 began.

I decided to pull off the SAP. Less add ons this way and I actually like the 18” wheels. Added the Star White to make the chrome look a little better.
