Maybe I missed something in a previous post. You are pissed because you ordered a 2024 Lariat Ultimate and Ford will not include massaging seats? Perhaps something is new on the configurator. When I ordered mine in February, massing seats were not an option on Lariat. I did not chat with anyone, I just used the build tool and that was not an option.well guys I finally got it. I got the email and got my VIN and a scheduled build date. it was ordered on 2/12/2024 email received today 5/2/2024 scheduled build date is to begin the week of June 24, 2024.

will admit rather pissed off at the moment, that according to ford website chat that the truck will not come with the massaging seats. they said it was only on the limited and there is no option to retrofit it, this was due to a chip shortage. which lets be real its been 4 years since covid, figure the shit out. but they did offer a whopping 300 dollar credit, for 1,700 bucks worth of massaging seat parts. my initial knee jerk reaction is to refuse delivery and try again in 2025. but I have time to cool off and see what I want to do when it actually gets here.
side question does anyone know when the 2025s will start? or when we will have more information on them?
No. I don't think the dealer is stalling the shipment so they can sell it to someone else (and if they are getting over MSRP on any truck, platinum or whatever, it better have a gold unicorn inside or something, those days are long gone for any savvy buyer). There is so much that goes into shipping, and the logistics chain in this country remains extremely FUBAR. 2 years ago, I had ordered a car that arrived to within 4 miles of the dealer. Took another 2 weeks for them to get it. They can't just go pick it up in most cases, the hired freight company maintains full responsibility until they deliver it. I know it is frustrating, but it will get there.Ok so I think my dealer is playing game’s with me and does not want to sell me the truck because they can get over sticker for the truck . The truck I ordered 19 months ago has been built on 3/27 and shipped on 3/29 it arrived by rail car to twin oaks PA on 4/08 and according to ford customer service it was released to the shipping company on 4/12 now it’s only a 3 hour drive to my local dealer and has yet to arrive there I had arrival dates of 4/17 then 4/22 then 4/26 and yet still waiting with the last update on the ford tracking is 4/08 with a 4/26 arrival according to ford customers service they are saying 5/4 which is tomorrow and yet no truck has arrived as of today does anyone think that the dealer can do that because that would be really F***ed up if they do has anyone had this happen to them.

I would say if you got a $300 credit for something they don't actually offer, you are well ahead of the game
If the salesman and dealership told you multiple times you will get massaging seats on a 2024 Lariat Super Duty, you need to go to another dealer. If they don't know stuff a kid can learn in 2 minutes on their own company website, how can you trust them to PDI you new 100k truck?? Service it, handle warranty stuff? Go elsewhere. These trucks are getting easier to find by the day.I was told several times by the dealer and the salesmen that they would indeed be included. I think that's where I messed up. but either way when you are told they would be there, and you find out they aren't when paying closer to 100K on the vehicle, someone could be upset.
lol yes it is very frustrating as they got me all excited when they shipped the truck only to be let down when you know its just sitting in a parking lot somewhere for a month now.No. I don't think the dealer is stalling the shipment so they can sell it to someone else (and if they are getting over MSRP on any truck, platinum or whatever, it better have a gold unicorn inside or something, those days are long gone for any savvy buyer).

Praying you get a good call tomorrow!!lol yes it is very frustrating as they got me all excited when they shipped the truck only to be let down when you know its just sitting in a parking lot somewhere for a month now.
Yes me too that would be a great FridayPraying you get a good call tomorrow!!
Max Recline is in fact offered as on option on Lariat Ultimate, KR, and PT, and standard on LTD ... unfortunately, it appears your dealer was misinformed about the Multicontour (massaging) ... here if you check the ordering guide, Multicontour (massaging) seats are only available on the KR, PT and LTD (with or without the Max Recline option) ... but no Multicontour on the Lariat or Lariat Ultimate .... check pages 2, 4, 20 and 30I was told several times by the dealer and the salesmen that they would indeed be included. I think that's where I messed up. but either way when you are told they would be there, and you find out they aren't when paying closer to 100K on the vehicle, someone could be upset.
I am in the same boat. For reference my truck made it to New Orleans port on 4/8 and won't be shipped to the dealership until 5/25. The dealer is pissed. All their trucks are like that. Houston port seems to be ok. But I had heard there are almost 8k vehicles in New Orleans port that they are just so far behind on. Dealership is stuck waiting on the Port to release it. I'm at 456 days since I placed my order. So another 2 weeks is what it is.Ok so I think my dealer is playing game’s with me and does not want to sell me the truck because they can get over sticker for the truck . The truck I ordered 19 months ago has been built on 3/27 and shipped on 3/29 it arrived by rail car to twin oaks PA on 4/08 and according to ford customer service it was released to the shipping company on 4/12 now it’s only a 3 hour drive to my local dealer and has yet to arrive there I had arrival dates of 4/17 then 4/22 then 4/26 and yet still waiting with the last update on the ford tracking is 4/08 with a 4/26 arrival according to ford customers service they are saying 5/4 which is tomorrow and yet no truck has arrived as of today does anyone think that the dealer can do that because that would be really F***ed up if they do has anyone had this happen to them.
better to not to be pissed off. A few thoughts on it, but with everything in life, there are two paths; FAFO or walk away. This falls in the latter.well guys I finally got it. I got the email and got my VIN and a scheduled build date. it was ordered on 2/12/2024 email received today 5/2/2024 scheduled build date is to begin the week of June 24, 2024.
