Lot of hunters in my family. For some reason my parents raised me as a vegetarian lol! Thankfully not a vegan. Otherwise I probably would have grown up hunting with my grandfather and uncles. Such is life.
To the OP: Beautifully outfitted truck. I'll be sending the URL to my wife to let...
Dude, raise this up the Ford flagpole. Also call the dealer where you bought it and see if they'll help you in some way. There is no way that the answer should be to ship it 2k each way for someone in the military. Hit them up on their public channels in Insta, FB, Twitter, and whatever else...
I would let the dealer know a few days before you leave that you'll be out of town but expect to take delivery if it's delivered while you're gone. Send an email so it's in writing. I let my dealer know that we might be gone for 1.5 weeks at the beginning of Sept in case it gets delivered in...
My general theory is if you can afford it, put better gas in it. My wife's theory is exactly the opposite lol! So she drives her Acura on 87(and it is running fine) with occasional 91. Thankfully she doesn't argue 91 or higher on my Porsche. My Mav will run off of 89.
Yeah, at that price just pick a good, fair dealer on the mainland. Get it near places you'd want to visit and make a trip out of driving it to a port to get shipped. Kind of like taking factory delivery of a Porsche, Volvo, or similar.
Nice! We moved from Douglasville to FL about 7 years ago. The commute from Dville to Alpharetta was killing me. We still get up there to see Braves games.
Yeah, really sucks that there are such bad dealerships out there. We found a good one in GA that our family ordered 7-8 vehicles from. In FL I was fortunate that a friend was a long time customer of a dealership that seems pretty good so far. No "required" add-ons and $150 in document fees vs...
Sales lady said it normally only takes a couple of days for the vehicles to make it from the rail yard to the dealership and said the hauler is a good one. So, hopefully dealer gets in Mon-Tues and I have it by the end of the week :)
Congrats! We bought a 22 XLT for my son for graduation as his order wasn't built in time. I liked his enough to switch his order to a A51 Lariat FX4 for me. Hoping to pick it up next week. Future son in law rolled over his 23 order to a 24 XLT EB. Not too far away from being a 3 Mav family...
Meeting my salesperson tomorrow so I'll see if she can give me an idea. The estimated delivery date did move up some. Cautiously optimistic.
Which dealer did you order from?
The truck is in Orlando! Hopefully it makes it up to the dealer pretty quick. My wife said if we get it in time we can drive it up to see our son instead of flying. Looking forward to it.
