The dealer admitted they made a mistake BUT the only fix is to re-order another truck since they have nothing other than XL's on the lot. After a few minutes of walking around the lot trying to cool myself down so I didn't snap at someone, I just left and said I'd be back later today or tomorrow to discuss next steps.
Now I see why my dealer was so serious and insistent that I go over the order sheet with a fine tooth comb and sign it.

In exchange for taking the long bed, you may likely get the extra bed space, a more comfortable ride, greater payload, 48 gallon fuel tank, your truck now, and there should be a transition offer from Ford sitting on that truck. Mine was worth $6k (Limited model) and there's no way I'd want to give that away. Will the dealer honor the $6k on another truck? Where the transition offer is directly from Ford based on your '23 order not being fulfilled, I don't know if it's transferrable, now that your order has been filled. Just my two cents...
transition offer? What’s that. Ford didn’t give me anything for my 539 day wait but a 3k dollar price Increase.

Sounds good, maybe they will get around to my Limited order soon. I haven't seen any postings of anyone getting a build date on a 450 Limited yet.

CC/SB 6.7 XLT 3.55 360 toughbed etc. Ordered 1/17, built 3/10, shipped 4/4, delivered 4/19. My 18 6.2 4.30 truck was quicker off the line but this is like a freight train lol. Should be interesting to see how it pulls the 28 ft intech trailer I should be receiving in about 2 weeks.

F-450 Limited This might be it since it is from a dealer in that area.

That price was a shocker but then I realized it was Canadian $. Nice truck I would jump on it except it's the wrong color for me,
