Quick prototype using hardboard, scrap leather, and a bit of a vintage Maverick interior, plus a HotWheels homage to boot (both found on eBay). I like it enough, so I'll eventually getting around to making a cleaner version that fits perfectly.
It might not be. I called my dealer and had them change it (originally Cactus Gray) after it was scheduled and had a VIN. They were able to get it changed without issue, so yours might be able to as well (might depend on how close the build date is).
I need to capture a photo with the doors open, cause I think the Azure probably most closely matches with the blueish hues of all the interior plastics, which I only just noticed at the end of the day today.
Sorry folks, this is the only moment I had today to capture the truck in full sun, and not the best angle.
Also didn't happen upon the A51 that usually haunts my local grocer, so that comparison will have to come another day.
Ok here's some more photos for y'all, clouds finally went away but there's too many trees so best I could do this AM is some mottled lighting. Hopefully I can take a few in full sunlight later this afternoon.
Also if I see an A51 at some point I'll try to park next to it and do a side-by-side.
Shipped the 27th and picked up at the dealer on the 6th, so...approximately 10 days, although I can't say for certain when the dealer got it - I picked it up the same day they called to inform me it was there, but it may have well showed up the day before.
I never got a delivery date estimate from Ford, but the production week was always scheduled for 10/25 and they stuck to it.
Compare that to my '23 order though, which was originally scheduled for June, but got pushed every scheduling round until the end of September when it finally got built...
UPDATED WITH DAYTIME PHOTOS:
Sadly didn't have a choice on the front bumper plate, was installed by the dealership before I got to it.
And yes, sunrise was an hour ago but I got other things I gotta do like change diapers, walk dogs, etc etc.
Anyway here's your first daylight photos with a...

Anyway here's your first daylight photos with a little bit of morning dew all over.
I didn't see anyone else reply saying they got theirs yet, so if I'm the first then sad to say no one in this thread predicted correctly, the answer is:

Piggybacked '23 dealer order was originally scheduled for June, but has been pushed every couple weeks and currently stands at 09/25 - wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't get built.
'24 order placed on July 18th currently scheduled for 10/23 (can see build details in signature). So if that...
I was incredibly surprised at how quickly this happened - I thought I had plenty of time to spare and asked my dealer to change the ext color to Azure Gray literally the day before, so it's probably too late for that now.

Build in signature, ordered as a backup plan in case MY23 doesn't get built or dealer tries to stick me with markups. Also might serve well just as negotiation fodder since I can get more-for-less on a MY24 Lariat.
I'll be disappointed to miss out on the Area51, but it's got a priority of 20...
The dealer I ordered from for MY24 said they had something like 350 orders to submit, when I called after 24hrs asking why I hadn't gotten the confirmation from Ford yet (Galpin, North Hills).
He didn't say they were all Mavericks per se but I can't imagine what else they could be. (I did get...
