I just received my X-Plan PIN from Ford for owning the stock. Super easy to get this setup and they responded by email a day after I sent them the requested information. I'm hoping the new Bronco sub-brand will turn Ford around and owning the stock will be a good investment 5 years down the road.
I did read on the F150 site guys were paying the $25 to get this setup quickly:

Funny/frustrating thing for me was when I finally got my X-Plan Pin, my local dealer wouldn't let me use it on a Tremor! (Maxwell Ford in Austin) - Super nice guys, but I wouldn't recommend them for that reason.
So far, that's the only dealership that wouldn't accept it.
