FYI 2022 Updated Production Schedule

[ChemLab]

How long before you get your wish and Amazon is selling cars & dealerships are only doing mechanical work and not selling vehicles?

Honestly, I don't blame my dealer here. They have a VVR that hasn't updated in 5 days. There isn't much they can do.

Ordered loaded KR F350 9/20. Dropped bed liner and 5th wheel prep today. Fingers crossed it gets scheduled this week.

Honest question, has anyone in here actually paid an exorbitant markup on their truck? Everyone’s defending these insane ADMs, so who’s thrown down the money to support the concept?

Kendall in Anchorage was charging $3000 on top of whatever else you optioned on an F250. Because of that, I was planning on buying my truck in Spokane Washington. I made a mistake that sent my build to the dealer in Kenai Alaska instead of Spokane, who wasn't charging anything over the retail quote on the Ford website. Same company, Kendall, different gouge. I figured that they'd charge the same as their partner in Anchorage. That was before I heard about Granger... Dang it..! Next time.!

I dropped bedliner but not 5th wheel and no issues. Lariat ordered 9/8, priority code 19. 5th wheel prep just seemed like something much harder/more expensive after the fact

You would drive from granger to alaska? The flight plus so many days on the road, hotels/fuel/food, your time, does it make sense? I understand folks investing a day or two on the road from florida or west coast, but Alaska, damn thats far.

New verbiage this week defining retail vs stock orders and availability.

• 22MY Super Duty Scheduling: Due to production availability, only retail orders will be eligible to schedule on Thursday, December 9.
• 22MY Super Duty Option Availability: For the remainder of 22MY, the following options will only be available to schedule on retail orders. Stock orders with these options will not be selected for scheduling:
  • Spray in Bedliner (85S)
  • Fifth Wheel Hitch (53W)
  • Tonneau Cover (21D,21E,21J)
  • Active Steering (60A) (optional on Lariat, King Ranch & Platinum; standard on Limited)
  • 19.5 Forged Polished Aluminum Wheel (64D) (standard on all F450 series and included on STX Pkg—17S)

Please note due to production availability, retail orders with these commodities may take several weeks to schedule.

Granger moved mid September and earlier retail priority 02. There’s hope

I like how they add “may take several weeks to schedule”, lol!

Not saying it is the dealers fault, like it’s been mentioned Ford has issues with tracing, they are trying to keep the customer in the loop to some extent and it’s not what people are accustomed to & to some extent it’s backfiring

I’m wondering how the other automakers are doing custom orders and such, do they track them and keep the customer updated?

 

[RyanP]

This makes me a bit concerned that I told my dealer that I am in no rush to get my truck....

Its okay! Dealer has no control over it

 

[RyanP]

I'm trying to get my order changed before it's scheduled to include the engine block heater. I just assumed they came standard on the 6.7

Get the rapid cab heater also if you didnt. Well worth it imo. Its pretty warm on 1 remote start

Yep, I had that added already along with the heated steering wheel. Need those luxuries when you live in Northern Michigan!

Salesman was able to add the engine block heater without a problem, glad I caught that.

Anybody know what/when your incoming truck ends up on the dealers website, seems I read somewhere it’s a automatic thing, just wondering when it happens

It's not automatic, at least not for all dealers. Mine never showed up on my dealers site. Also never saw mine on the Ford dealer inventory site either.

I am surprised the Mach-E system is still down. Ford's tracker is up, but not updated. I figured it would be a 24-48 hour thing, but maybe the system is tweaked.

 

[G.O.A.Tremor]

Ford tracker just updated for me!

Also my Informant told me delivery between dec24-30.... I'll take it!

these internal dealer priorities dont mean anything. Ford comes in and picks the vehicles they can/want to build from that dealer. Don't spend your energy reading into priorities. Even Ford's 02 doesn't mean jack if they dont have parts to build you, you will wait 3-4 months in that priority 02 until the part becomes available. Instead, try dropping options you might not really need like the adaptive steer, 5 wheel prep, Bedliner tonneau covers, etc. That action might get you scheduled faster.

Yeah I guess I’m like everyone else on here. Impatient. But I won’t settle for less. If it takes 6 months to get the options I want I will wait. My 08 Duramax is still an awesome truck, but thanks for the input. I didn’t really understand allocations and codes etc.

Yeah, did the same. Killed the Liner (Same Price - perceived higher quality for Line-X w/lifetime warranty) - and not willing to settle. Not at these prices. Plus, PUCK System will be under the 3 year warranty as well vs 1 year if after the fact. Not like there are any moving parts to worry about. But still.

 

[pkrexer]

Only reason why I'm getting the bed liner is I have a black appearance package. If I could drop just the bed liner, I would in a heartbeat.
