I spoke too soon! 20 minutes after that post I got an email that we're good for tomorrow!
Oops. Sorry, please ignore me
I'm jealous. Mine shipped from the factory on 4/20 and it still hasn't arrived at the Port of Delaware yet. Fingers crossed that in the next two weeks I'll have it.
Thank you all for the emotional support over this 18 month journey! Back in January, I doubted this day would come but I finally picked it up today and I love it so far. The trip computer is reading over 44 MPG so far on >85% highway, which is spectacular!
The team at Chapman was super easy to work with. We were done in about 50 minutes and that's including idle time waiting for the truck to be cleaned. No pressure at all on upsells from Kristina in F&I and the salesman, Fred, didn't waste any time going over the vehicle with us (I always hate that part of a new car sale). The sales manager, John, confirmed the out-the-door pricing breakdown ahead of time with the private offer and Farm Bureau discount and everything was perfect down to the penny.
As I mentioned in an earlier post, everybody should be spending the $20 to take advantage of the Farm Bureau's $500 discount to offset the February price increase, which came out to $492 at invoice on my Lariat.
You're in the "lots of patience" phase. For reference in setting expectations, my travel times were:
I thought the lots of paitence stage was 2 Thanksgivings, 2 Christmases, 2 new years, and 2 Easters worth of waiting...
Odds are it will be 2 Memorial Days as well.
Congrats to you, so glad t worked out well!

Not until on the lot. (my experience).
Yup, you won't get any final numbers (based off the invoice) until the truck is on the lot. We didn't finance through them, but even the few things we needed to sign with F&I were all completed on the spot because a bunch were carbon paper copies, which is run through an impact printer.
that was worth the year-and-a-half wait:
Yes, got my window sticker late last week. No "built" email yet, and my modules haven't "popped" yet, but hopefully this week...
FYI a few days after the sale is completed, you'll get 42,000 FordPass points, which is $210 to spend at the Ford Store. I just ordered my BedRug through there for a total of $39 after points. Sure, it's a little more expensive than RealTruck at $240, but you get $210 off the top and that doesn't even get taxed.
