Congrats BlackKnight21 - great looking truck!!!!!!! I had a very long wait for mine, but yours was even 2- 1/2 weeks longer...... Got mine last monday - hope you are as happy with yours as I am! :)

BlackKnight21: any progress today?

CTYankee - re: your earlier question, I got my truck today and checked the console recess for folding gearshift, and yes, there is a trim cover there. Assume this can be corrected easily by your dealer. ps - good job with the tailgate letters

You will make a little more power with premium, but I have run 80k trouble free miles in my '16 2.7 on 87 octane. Never had any driveability or power issues and always get a weekly average of 20 to 23 mpg, mixed driving. I will be running 87 in my new 21 2.7 as well. I do run top tier fuel...

I don't think it is just Ford - all manufacturers are obsessed with electric - and being pushed to a degree by political agendas. I can see EV's for urban commuters, especially in warmer climates, and perhaps even limited range fleet applications like municipal Public Works departments that...

Two months and it hasn't arrived at your dealer??!! A trucking transportation issue? Hopefully you'll get it soon. Dealer should be able to check/determine its location.

Awesome - good for you!!! Gives me hope - I have the same blend date and my sequence number is 5964. Edit: OMG !!!!!! I just checked the Ford Tracker and it shows my truck has finally been built today - 29 weeks after the order was submitted! Says "shipped" and looks like it is at or...

Well st least yours got built and shipped. I think your production date in August was a couple days before mine IIRC. I can't find anything to tell me if/when it might now get built.

Anyone know if KCAP is up to running full shifts this week? I'd also be interested to know what sequence number they are at now. My 3/11 order truck was finally scheduled to be built on 8/25 @ sequence # 5924 but plant shut down 8/23. Aparently it did not get built last week after the...

Question: Does the KCAP run through weekends. i.e., 7days a week?

So does that mean yours actually got built yesterday (hopefully)?

I don't understand either - Strange that I had the same 8/25 blend date at KCAP, yet my sequence number is much higher - 5964.

I really appreciate the OP's great information and everyone's experiences in this thread! Sure seems like widely varied times from ordering date to production to delivery and apparently selected options can have a big impact........ I ordered 3/11 and production was originally scheduled for...

Good to read, as I have been extremely happy with the 2,7 in my 16 302A - and have ordered another 2.7 - in a 501A. Hope I get it some day...........
