Can you share the port numbers for the steering wheel cruise switch and the fomoco tail gate power lock? I like the idea of getting an XL and adding those XLT bits.

The Ford part numbers of the switches I used are: LB5Z-9C888-G (SW8414) list price $40.18 and LB5Z-9C888-F (SW8415) list price $84.36 (prices on 05/02/2022)
Make sure to not get switches for Adaptive Cruise.

The power tailgate lock assembly is part number JB3Z-9943170-A (list price $74.29) and the wire harness is part number NZ6Z-14A412-B (list price $64.33), again pricing in May. Tip: tape the new wire harness end to end to the old wire harness to guide the new wire harness in while pulling the old one out. You'll see why.

Sorry for the delay in answering, been working long days on my 1957 Chevy after a complete strip down and a complete repaint. (check out the car in the "show case, other vehicles).

I have referenced this photo considering the color change, while waiting for a VIN. I hope this helps.

Atlas Blue (fr), Velocity Blue (bk)

I checked with my dealer today, said I was scheduled for 11/21. I chatted with Ford and they said 10/31 and gave me a B09xxx VIN.

The tracking site won’t take my order number but I’m optimistic. . . should have it sometime around New Years.

Looks like I'm joining the club. Built with "scheduled" delivery by 10/24. Have you taken delivery yet?

Well, I'm being rolled over to MY23. Got the email a few days ago. So now I'm getting the Atlas Blue. At least Ford didn't get rid of a blue option entirely. I hate monochromatic cars.

Original build week was 9/5, pushed out to 9/26, pushed out again to 10/10. I really wish they would figure out which week they're going to send the VBs down the line just build them. I sure as heck don't want to hear that they ran out of paint.

I hear ya on the color. Not getting the VB was my biggest concern if I got rolled to a '23. I probably would have gone with Cyber Orange if I had.

Based on the way the In Production and the Built dates tend to be the same date, I have a sneaking suspicion they're built, but sitting there just waiting on chips or whatever the restriction is. Much like all of those F-150s that are sitting there. Just a theory.
