I wasn’t so sure about the wheels before I bought the truck. But I actually really like them in person. They remind me of my old 89 Toyota pickup, which was all about fun(ction)!
Nice !! Nice color!!Ordered it back on June 16th, and just drove it home last night. My first impression is that this truck is an incredible deal. Wow! I'm kind of glad that I hadn't seen one before last night, because my expectations were simply blown away. It has a massive amount of utility, amazing gas mileage, lots of tech, and fun handling. I couldn't be happier. Sure, I could nitpick a few small things, but I'll leave that to others.
To those who haven't received their trucks yet: hang in there, it'll be worth it. Unless you are expecting a Rivian for $22,000, you won't be disappointed.
My only concern is durability and reliability, due to Ford's imperfect history. But I'm optimistic and hopeful that my truck will have many solid years ahead of it.
FYI, if anyone in Colorado wants to work with an excellent dealership, check out Mike Maroone Ford Longmont. Truly a class act, from start to finish. No ugly surprises or squirrely sales tactics. Just courteous, respectful, professional, and responsive service. Having heard many horror stories on this forum about crappy dealers, I feel very fortunate to have been able to work with Brad, Brent, and Andre at Mike Maroone Ford. EDIT: Worth noting that they stuck to the original price, and didn't charge any ADM. And their pricing for Ford ESP plans seems to be pretty much the same as Flood Ford online (haven't purchased it yet, but still thinking about it...)

Congratulations! And I agree with all you have said. I picked up my XLT Thursday, and I have to say I am really impressed with all the technology this truck has and the way it handles & performs. I've owned a lot of vehicles in my 70 years on this planet, but I must say, this little truck has stole my heart. Best of luck to all . .Ordered it back on June 16th, and just drove it home last night. My first impression is that this truck is an incredible deal. Wow!

Colorado. Took a little over two weeks, including the last bit from the rail yard to the dealer. Mine was routed through California, then up to Wyoming.
Thank you
