2021 7.3l on the way ???

[ChuckD]

Here’s my latest update. Can someone translate for me? My dealer is clueless.

And here’s my window sticker:
Platinum in Carbonized gray.

That means you're about to get your truck! It was built just before Thanksgiving, and already shipped, on it's way to you.

Get ready, because you'll have your new ride before Christmas! (barring any unforeseen complications with the delivery: like hurricanes, railroad worker strikes, midget rainstorms causing road closures, yada, yada, yada - that kind of stuff)...

Cool! Make sure to post pics!

could be any day now, mine arrived about a week or so earlier than what it showed. I had a window of 21-32 days and yours shows 12-28 days so could be sooner than you expect. nice truck

Shes going to look so sharp with that grey color. I went with a Silver Platinum but the Platinum tail gate badge gets lost in the Silver. Yours will pop so nicely with that Badge. Awesome choice. SYCHED FOR YOU. ? ? ?

Congrats sir. Carbonized gray is a sweet color.

 

[ChuckD]

Thanks everyone. I thought it would be later rather than sooner than expected. Guess I better figure out what to do with my F-150!

 

[ChuckD]

I guess it’s at my dealer. My salesman just emailed to tell me he gets it in Wednesday 12/9. I’ll swing by tomorrow and see!

Congratulations, post some pics once you pick it up.

Got her!!!

One issue though: transmission temp got up to 219 driving a few miles home. City driving, is that normal? 7.3, not towing.

Got her!!!

Beautiful Truck sir! Welcome to the jungle.

I’m going to say it’s normal or within the range of normal. I noticed mine was up to 219the other day and everything seemed to be working good. My expedition with the 10 speed will run at that temp too. There has been a few others say 219 as well, but I may ask my dealer next time I’min just to be sure. Nice truck too.

Nice set up and the color is awesome. The trans temps can run what I feel is HOT. 219 yep, Mine runs around 209 but I am in the crappy state of Wisconsin where the weather is colder and they don't know how to count votes and they tax the shit out of us.

 

[ChuckD]

Dealer said it’s normal. I’ll keep an eye on it. Outside temp was a frigid 70 degrees.

 

[ChuckD]

Just sprayed it down with iron remover and a quick clay bar. Rail dust all over the rear quarters and Tremor stickers.

Congratulations, sharp looking truck!
