I certainly have. One would think my dealer was protecting Federal Government top secret documents.

What has your dealer been telling you?

Nothing. Last time I asked them anything, they just gave me the same tracker Ford gave me via their emails.

I've gotten 3 emails from Ford Motor. The last one was to tell me my build week had been moved from 12/13/21 to 12/20/21. I've heard nothing since then.

Ah, ive never once gotten an email from ford.

I’m just tired of the overall lack of communication from my dealer. 12/20 they said it was in production but they can’t give me a vin, eta or anything just that it is currently in production. Is anyone else having a similar problem?

Yeah something doesn't smell right there. If its "in production" it has to have a VIN, period. Can't imagine why they wouldn't provide it.

Curious. What made you decide to get the Max Trailer Tow package (53C) over the Trailer Tow package (53A) on your PowerBoost? What feature/upgrade specifically justified the additional price increase?

I can’t remember where it was. But there where some posts going around talking abouthow Max Tow requires 20” wheels. Couple guys tried putting 18s on their rides. The brakes rubbed and caused problems. So the conclusion was made that with the Max Tow u get improved brakes with ur truck (never seen anything official from ford). Plus there extra towing payload to it. Not much with a powerboost but there is.

No payload increase for PB with 53C. I’d certainly consider it if there was.

Here is what I remember reading somewhere.
Max payload gets 20 in Wheels but Max Tow gets 18 not 17 due to the larger rear brakes, the front brakes are the same.
My Lariat with the max tow package is listed as haveing 18 in Wheels (I don't have the truck yet)

Here's the specs on the 21 from Ford for those wondering. I'm pretty sure 22 is the same.

Same with me. I'm totally in the dark with the tracker not working.

Got an update from my dealer today. Said mine should arrive 1/22 or possibly earlier that week!

My 21 302A with Max Tow has 20s. All the max tows the dealers around me received had 20s and the trailer tow packages had 18s

 

[LurchOR]

Congrats! What's the last date of the ETA range? I'll update the list.

"Our current estimate for delivery to Kendall Ford is be‍tween January 22, 2022 an‍d January 28, 2022."
Be interesting to see if I get a "Your vehicle has been shipped" email and if the arrival date slips at all.

If u go on Fords build price page. It switches u over from 18 pvd - 20s. Ur I’m not looking a sport package. It looked like u can switch it over to 18s as long as it wasn’t the chrome pvd 18s

Have they come out with the tow chart for 22s yet. On 21s the chart shows u going from 11k towing to 12.4K with max tow.
