Truck ordered
Just got my order confirmation in from Ford this morning
F-350 SRW CC LB, 4x4 Argon Blue with the HO Diesel, most of the goodies, but no 5th wheel prep, snow plow prep or camper prep. Thanks for all the advice on my earlier thread from a few weeks ago.
Wife - ALMOST- loves it. She wants to get a two tone paint job once we get it in... She has not decided between silver or black
After years of things "not quite fitting" in my short bed, finally getting the long bed. Now it will be years of "not quite fitting in the parking spot" Oh well, pick your battles.
Next stop, Leer Top (looked at ARE, not quite what we want), Line-X, and undercoating once it goes through the build and delivery process.

Congrats!
Argon Blue sounds like a winner. Guess your wife didn't like the Argon Blue and Grey two tone available in King Ranch?
I just ordered last week myself, also went with the long bed since we are looking at a fifth wheel in the future. Now the waiting game begins for both of us.

Ordered my F350 SRW 6.7 Lariat Ultimate on Nov 26, build was finished on Feb 3, shipped Feb 7. Had a delivery date for Feb 21~27. Now it's pushed back to March 4~10. Im in upstate NY.
A couple years ago we ordered a BMW X3M, ordered the car and 23 days later took possession. It was built in the same state. How is it that the oldest USA maker is that far behind the times? I hope its worth the wait, im getting old here...

I suspect the delay is due to the major snowfall that occured in the eastern US.
I get that it's a long wait, but also consider that they were down at least 2 weeks during the winter holiday season.
My wife's BMW took 6 weeks just to get built and then shipping took another 4. It's all about timing, if the dealership has an order slot that can be used that is coming up soon, that will shorten the timeframe. My wife's car was order just after they closed on the close in orders (2 week lock in period) and the next ones were almost 4 weeks out until those were locked in.

I see you both ordered 6.7, I ordered the 7.3, wonder if that makes a difference on scheduling?
