Was able to track these painted steel rims down, and they seem like a reasonable option.

How does the price compare to what your shop was quoting?
Thanks for the tip about the lug nuts. I figured I would simply use the stock set without the centre cap, but didn't consider the effects of leaving them exposed over the winter.
I'm starting to think abut getting a set of nicer rims to put the all seasons on, and then use the stock painted...
Having trouble finding suitable winter (steel) rims, new or used, in my part of the world (Ottawa)
Has anyone had any luck mounting a set of wheels with a greater offset (50-55mm), which seems a lot more common than the 37.5" on the stock XL's?
Seems like I'll be about 24mm tighter on the...
Just got my Bison and installed it over the weekend - thanks for all the tips on here.
About the leaky corners near the cab, what do you guys think about adding a bead of silicon caulk around all the trim pieces at the corners?
Anyone else in Canada get the bonus 20,000 points?
Ordered my hybrid back in July 2021... wondering if it's worth contacting the dealer or Ford to see about getting the bonus points.
So as I figured, the truck seemingly randomly arrived at the dealer this weekend. Salesman said there's a huge backlog of vehicles in Montreal right now (not enough truck drivers), and the deliveries are just rolling in with whatever, whenever.
Also as I expected, when it came to the paperwork...
How do you guys know where the trucks are sitting? Is this something the dealer told you, or is there a way to find out where along the delivery route the vehicle is?
Update - the ford.ca tracker now says the truck is en route, and should be in town the last week of August. So that would put it at just under 3 months from built to an Ottawa dealership, for those keeping score at home.
Fellow Canadian waiters, I'm wondering how many others have been waiting for a long time between their truck being built and having the (order tracker say the) truck shipped?
Mine was apparently built May 31, and I'm still awaiting shipment here on July 4. Dealer has no additional info...
Long time listener, first time caller.
Ordered an XL hybrid from my dealership (Barrhaven Ford in Ottawa) back in July. Got a call this week from the manager saying they won't be getting any hybrids in until, he expects, April.
Just as well at this point, I figure. Don't need to worry about...
