I ordered a new 2024 F150 Lariat because the Platinum doesn't come with a 5.0 engine on 10/6/2320 and it hasn't been in production as yet. Ford is failing the customers badly.
I made a downpayment on a 2021 Platinum in September 2020 and I'm still waiting for a VIN number in production. This is Ford's QC/QA system in reverse!
I ordered a 2021 Platinum in September 2020 and have yet to receive a VIN number in production. It probably won't arrive until they start the 2022 line.
I ordered and signed a contract with a local dealer for a 2021 Platinum F-150 in Sept 2020 and still don't have a VIN number. I guess COVID has them far behind. I may get a 2021 in July 2021 at the rate Ford is producing new orders.
