Ordered a 2026 F-250 Lariat on Friday, May 23, 2025.

I've had a 2025 on order since March 31st, and stopped at the dealership to ask for any updates on my order, as I hadn't heard anything from Ford. The dealer advised the order wasn't going to make the "cutoff date" (his words) and I saved him a phone call. I asked when I could order a 2026 and he said the order banks opened earlier that morning. 10-minutes later I signed the 2026 order summary.

The 2026 cost me a bit more money than the 2025, but I'm pleased with the way it turned out. Keyless Entry - Illuminated Keypad was an unexpected, but welcome optional upgrade.

May 28 - I upgraded the order to an F-350 with the 10R140 transmission. As the 3.73 Electronic-Locking Axle (which I had ordered) is standard on the F-350 and optional on the F-250, the invoice price increase was only $843.00. I don't need the extra capacities of the F-350 at this time, but that could change in the future. The saying, "Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it," seems appropriate.

 

Did the dealer give any indication when it would go into production? I'm just curious
.

 

No, and I didn't ask because I don't think they have any idea what Ford's plans are.

Did not realize that the gasser option was not available for the F450 according to this video at the 14 min 10 sec mark:

 

I'm hoping as well and would like to get my order in asap given everything that has been happening since the first of the year.
Really don't like where we're headed and would like to get this truck in our hands (God willing) sooner rather than later.

 

it will probably take forever anyway

 

Probably not. Current order times to delivery have been as little as six weeks for 250 and 350, depending on engine, the HO 6.7 taking longer.
450 is a different story.

 

Yup still waiting on the f450 on my second order lol

 

Now the wait begins… ordered 24May
I’mjust hoping to see it by Christmas (hopefully)

the dealer said production for 26’ scheduled for first week of July.

But I’m assuming a lot of that is fleet inventory and dealer inventory I don’t know how it works with customer specific orders.


This is my first time doing this.

 

still waiting on order confirmation from a few days ago 🤷🏼‍♂️

 

Ask about promotional pricing. My guy mentioned that some guys who had a previous truck order that could not be fulfilled could be eligible for a promotional discount. It was pretty significant... like 6k dollars!
