2024 MY Super Duty Order/Schedule/Build Thread

[DTX2023Tremor]

Yeah I've filed a claim before truck arrived... Been a busy month dealing with all that.... They told me they couldn't install at dealer since it would void warranty (someone else on the FTE forum also said that).... They said they would try to have 01/02 priority re-built, but there are no guarentees, so I decided today to buy the 3.31.. I wouldn't be happy if the 2023 wasn't re-built and the 2024 had no Tow Tech.... So i will just settle for 3.31 and be happy with that. I don't want to risk not having front sensors and ACC in a 2024 40/20/40 non ultimate

It is a head scratcher how work done at a dealer would void warranty since the dealers are the primary folks for warranty repairs. I wonder if the policy has changed... Attached are a couple of pages from a Ford manual from 2019 that would seem to indicate the dealer could make the repair, although would likely require more approvals since I expect it to cost more than $1,500.

Also for reference is a tip sheet from a company that processes warranty claims for Ford for dealers form 2014.

I got my order in earlier myself. Let the wait begin.

I ordered a ‘23 F350 HO Lariat Ultimate Tremor loaded on the suggestion it would more than likely be delivered well before the Platinum trim I preferred. As it turned out, 9 months of waiting and I’m still not scheduled. Today I ordered a F350 HO Platinum trim Tremor so... time will tell what happens. Bloody frustrating and costly to wait.

Job 1 order doesn't mean anything. Just when they put the order in. Priority 10 is pretty good considering it's your first order. People with rollover orders have been getting 10s. Doesn't necessarily mean much to Ford but your dealership may be putting your order in front of others. So that's good.

Ford often splits production into 2 jobs. The first one is the lower level trims (XL, XLT and Lariat) to allow the team to build trucks that are less complex and that gives them a chance to assure that the quality is coming off the line to standards. Job 2 is for the higher trims (King Ranch, Platinum, and Limited) as well as certain options that are either more complex or limited availability (e.g. Black Appearance Package). The vast majority of their production are job 1 models so it also gives them some opportunity to crank out volume to get trucks out into the market. I suspect this is also to fill fleet orders which I'd expect are mostly at the XL and XLT trims.

We often see retail orders submitted into the system with the job 1 line added. This doesn't mean anything if the trim and options selected are job 2 items as the factory won't produce the order any sooner. For MY23, dealers were instructed to put job 2 orders with a priority code of 99 (i.e., don't schedule) until job 2 scheduling began. Didn't seem to matter if they did that or not, but might have served to help keep the queue a bit more organized.

There's unconfirmed rumors that Ford won't split the production for MY24 and will just scheduled orders. This would make sense given that there are superficial changes from 23 to 24 so the factory doesn't need to figure out how to build the new model year. Also, it looks like there is no break in production with the 2023s closing out at the end of September, and the 2024s starting at the beginning of October. So that would support the idea that they'll just keep rolling them off the line with a 2024 sticker instead of a 2023.

I imagine we'll know much more about approach as we get into September.

100k for a Lariat Tremor... Truck prices are insane.

Curious... why a F-250 instead of the F-350 to get the higher ratings on the sticker?

I went 250 as well. Wisconsin charges more for the 350 ratings with registration.

Ford always splits production years into multiple jobs. it allows for a clean cutover for minor changes. They often don't split trims by jobs as you suggest though, that was an exception for 2023 and I wouldn't expect that to be the new norm.

Got my confirmation email yesterday. 24 F250 XLT Tremor HO Rapid Red with a priority code of 10. So far as I am aware I am first in line at this dealership.

My bad... I am ordering 2024. I would love to get the Lariat Ultimate but need the 40/20/40 Split Bench Seating for my large family. Would I be missing out a lot by not having the Tow Tech Package? I tow a trail trailer 90-120 days a year.

I am in the same position. Need the bench seat for family size. I was hoping to get the tow tech package. Dealer confirmed yesterday that tow tech package is now rolled into Lariat Ultimate. Saving $1,500 not having that package offset the price increase from 23->24.

My order is in now so the wait begins.

New guy here…just got confirmation my order (1st ever order) was submitted by dealership. 2024 F-250 Platinum 7.3 Tremor. Priority 16 and I know I’m not only one at my dealership with a request in. I’m curious how long Ford takes to confirm order with order number or VIN to track build? I know that won’t even start until October-ish. Thanks!

Order number you should get pretty quickly... usually same or next day after it was submitted.

Now vin... well, no way to know. Some people on other forums/FB report placing orders and getting a vin a couple of weeks later (typically lower level trims, fewer options). Since 2024 production doesn't start until October, you won't get the possibility of a vin until September at the earliest.

That said, I placed my 2023 order on 10/29/22, 2 days after the order banks opened and still do not have a vin/build date. It is highly unlikely that my 23 order will be built. There are many others like me... look around on the forums and you'll find people who ordered a 2022 back in late 2021, rolled to 23, and are now rolling to a 24.

TLDR - order confirmation is fast. Best to prepare for a long wait for a vin.

I never thought about it. I’ve had 2 previous 250’s and never needed the extra capacity. How much more is a 350?

There is a Job #1 line item on my '23 Platinum order. What does that mean?

View attachment 125822

It doesn't mean anything as you'll find everyone's orders will all have that line added. Ford will determine what is part of Job 1 or Job 2 based on how they want to approach production. In MY23, XL/XLT/Lariat were all started in Job 1 and then they added King Ranch, Platinum, Limited, Black Appearance Package, etc... when they started Job 2. This allowed the factory to ramp production on the less complex builds before adding in more complexity or items that are less common.

Your order will be eligible for scheduling based on how they design the respective jobs. Looks like you have a pretty much fully loaded Platinum, so I'd expect your order to be in the later Job.
