My wait is almost over

Finally my wait for my 2005 F-350 Larait 4X4 CC PSD Dark Stone is almost over. Ordered on 07-05-04 the dealer said it should be in by the end of the week. I almost gave up on it a couple of times and bought one of the lot but just could'nt find exactly what we were looking for. Ford sure didn't set any speed records getting our order filled. Its been so long since I ordered it that I kind of got a little numb to the excitment of a new truck. But that all came rushing back when I got the call from my dealer. Now I feel like a kid waiting for Christmas Day to come

Congrats bassnut! I am about a week behind you, though I ordered mine later but I can totally relate to the numbness. I am hoping that call comes in soon.

bassnut: Congratulations...I know the feeling. Mine finally arrived last Wednesday....and I've posted my gallery already....take a peek . Unfortunately we're on our way to La. tomorrow and decided not to take it...painful . We didn't want to put such a new engine under four days of highway/cruise control....not to mention chancing an unknown engine so far from home. I can't wait to get home ! Enjoy ! Mulelady

I'm not sure what the priority number was. One time I was told it was 25 another time they said it was 15. But I think it had more to do with this dealers power ranking or whatever they call it. Also once I got a build date it was put on hold 3 times. I was told it was due to the shortage of certain components. That was very frustrating. But hopefully it will come in this week
