Is it me or does it appear that dealers are slowly getting some inventory? In the past 2 days I have been by 2 different Ford dealers and it seems they have more trucks on the lot. I was told by my dealer that all retail sales have priority over dealer inventor, also a customer at my dealer told me he ordered his truck in February and got his truck in June Whats up with that? Thoughts.....?

Well, I have two orders both 3/16. Blend dates of 4/28 and 4/29. 4/29 was delivered to me 6/22. Still waiting on 4/28 blend. Dealer has gotten a total of 4 trucks for dealer stock in that time. I think they have to do a combination of both or these dealers will go out of business. It isn't as simple as just do orders, orders are a guaranteed sale, they need inventory as well to be able to continue to pay their bills. Anyway, anything made in 1st week of May or later are being shipped immediately as they are not partially completed. It is those of us before that who were built with no chips stuck on hold.

This is the first I have heard the statement about orders after May. Did a dealer confirm this?

Combination of info I have gleaned from different forums and what the dealer hinted at. I know that they have orders that hit the line in May that never got put on hold. Not that they are getting a ton of anything but they said it seems to be the PreMay builds that got built without chips.

My dealer is selling used stuff very well. Keeps the lights on.
They have received three 'dealer trucks" in the 16 weeks I have been waiting for mine.

My dealer got in 4 the other day, three stock units, and 1 of my special orders. They had all 3 stock sold before they got off the truck. They list them as "in transit" on their website and presell them before their arrival. I know used trucks have skyrocketed.

Well that gets me excited. I placed my order last week and obviously have not heard back. I would love for my truck to show up in Aug.

Just went past a dealer in my area the other day and he had at least 12 2021's including a Platinum and 2 Lariats. They even had a Powerboost.

99.9% of us would like it very much if we only had to wait about 8 weeks for our truck. Miracles have happened with fast deliveries, but don't hold your breath waiting for an August arrival. Maybe mid to late September at best. I do hope you are lucky and get one fast.

you should call the dealer to see if FORD pick up the order. I already got the VIN # from my dealer. I placed my order on 6/17.

Placed my order on 6/1 and no VIN yet. Dealer said he's been telling customers to be prepared to wait six months to take delivery. He showed me where the order was submitted and just waiting on Ford to pick it up and schedule it.
