@Vermonster - No email notice from Ford but my dealer just informed me that my Build week has been pushed out to 12/6 so now again we can be iconic silver twins going down the line. Loving this New waiting phase so far!

Not at all. I am always posting funny jokes based on the pain we are all feeling.... :-(
That’s a nice looking truck, congrats!
Funny mine is also Iconic Silver with the same scheduled build date...7.3 gas however on mine@Vermonster - No email notice from Ford but my dealer just informed me that my Build week has been pushed out to 12/6 so now again we can be iconic silver twins going down the line.

@Gadgetwiz There are multiple threads in this forum regarding this topic. The rear leaf pack, rear axle, structural crossmembers are items that have been confirmed from members to be identical between an F250 and F350 Tremor (this is not the case for non-Tremors, btw). I am not aware of any additional items that are present on an F350 (gas vs. gas or diesel vs. diesel). Here are some links to the many discussions that all end up with the same conclusion (after some spirited debate in some):
F250 vs F350 Tremor Suspension
So I'm a bit confused on the differences between the F250 tremor vs F350. From everything I've seen so far, the F250 has the same leaf springs, same axle, diff, etc. Why would one get a f350? They seem to be the same truck.

F250 vs f350 tremor.
Ordering tremor soon. lariat 7.3 l gas. this isn’t a debate of f250-f350 tremor 7.3 gas suspension. Axles as they are all the same. It’s all about the sticker. is it worth the approx $1k for the f350 stickers? resale?

F350 vs F250 Crossmember Count
This has come up a few times that the F350 gets a extra crossmember over the F250. Not including the 5th/goose prep and rear reciver I have 9 crossmembers front to back on the frame of my 7.3L F350. What does everyone else have for a count on theirs? Starting at the front one bolt on member...

F350 vs F250 rear springs
When I was researching my truck to order I found a bit of uncertainty regarding the rear spring packs. If it’s of any value to those still contemplating I’m attaching a shot of what I believe is my spring pack part number. This is from an F350 KR Tremor 7.3l with 10k GVWR (derated). Maybe...

What does an extra $1000 get me for F250 to F350 Tremor?
I know the F250 vs F350 Tremor topic has been hashed over many times. If they have the same rear suspension and rear axle, why is Ford charging $1000 more for an identically optioned F350 Tremor over an F250 Tremor? F250 Tremor: $73, 575 (Diesel, Lariat Sport, Lariat Ultimate, High Cap...

Now, when I was faced with this decision, I read through all the debates, reviewed the graphic evidence and made the decision that made sense for my usage. I originally had a non-Tremor F350 on order but switched to a Tremor F250 for multiple reasons - this being one. I am not recommending you get a F250 or F350, just presenting the same facts I was offered. If you think you may need the payload someday, or are unsure, the F350 may be the correct choice so you do not find yourself overloaded based on the door sticker.

Maybe there was a pain shortage we didn't know about!
This was the deciding factor with going for the 350 gasser for me. The nearly 4k lb payload is just a beautiful thing.
And according to the 2022 Ford towing guide, there is differences between the towing capabilities of the 250 v 350, and between the 6.7 v 7.3, but only when it comes to gooseneck/5th wheel. So really, just comes down to the payload/towing need and the legalities of the indicated capabilities.@Gadgetwiz There are multiple threads in this forum regarding this topic.

I guess I am now paying penance for how fast my build was or something.
Ordered 9/11
Vin and Build info 9/16
Build Week 10/11
Built 10/13
Ship Date 10/16
Now seems to be lost on never never land ha ha its 608 Miles from SD Plant to Granger Ford, that seems like a 3 to 5 day delivery to me not 3 weeks especially since yours went across the country and you have have it and it shipped 10 days later. Who knows?

Placed my order on 10-5-21. Called today, it has a VIN, but no production date....
The shipping process is a black hole. Trucks get shipped, some show up in days others get lost and show up several weeks later. It seems like the dealerships just shrug their shoulders and take an “it will get here when it gets here” attitude.

Little known fact: That paint is reserved for only the coolest of cool... I think they have to mine the minerals out of rare earth magnet extract to complete the formulation. Rare earth production is globally dominated by the Chinese right now - so it complicates things... A keen eye will note that the price does not increase for Iconic Silver but there is a "behind the scenes" selection process. I tried to add it to my order but the pick kept defaulting to the $595 Star White option. I guess I am not coolMaybe there was a pain shortage we didn't know about!
Please don't believe anything stated above...
Happy Thursday all!

Who did you call? Placed my order 8-13-21. Still no VIN, date or any communication from Ford or the dealer.
Ever played a relay race?
That's kinda how UPS/FedEx/USPS (basically non-freight) work.
You give them a package -- they pass it from driver to driver until it gets to where it's going. Those drivers operate under a certain class that is not the same as a semi.
For freight, your truck, it's going to be on a class of truck that has a special set of DoT regulations. Among these regulations are breaks. Not brakes like brakes like brake caliper -- but break like lunch break.
Some of these brakes are literally more than one day.
So, why does it take so long? Look up DoT regulations for driver breaks and you'll loose your mind.
Essentially -- you've got a guy driving around that has to exit the highway and find a place to park and take a break every X hours. So his 30 minute break instead of being 30 minutes is really an hour or two because that's just how things go, realistically. Then every X hours over Y days they have to stop and take a 34 hour break.
Now, you're a driver -- you're human, you don't want to take your 34 hour break just anywhere so you plan your trip so it sucks less while still providing that you have a good place to stop for what will most likely end up being 2-3 days.
There you have it. A one week haul by a vigilant driver turns into 2+ weeks largely due to regulation. Otherwise that driver would most likely bust chops to get things delivered and get back home to have a break they could enjoy more.
You also have to factor in there dealer time -- let's say they've got 10 cars going to 5 dealerships each of those 5 stops probably takes 2-3 hours to deal with unloading, paperwork, etc.. Ideally they'd all be going to one dealer and then you'd see much faster delivery times but with the drivers days all chopped up by stops and unwanted DoT breaks -- it gets stretched out.
Likewise, that results in pissed off drivers who go find loads to carry that are a straight shot so the rates go up. On and on, it's a mess. Almost all of which can be traced back to government action that itself can be traced back to corporate lobbying under the guise of safety with the reality of stifling independent and small operation competition to big corporations.
