  1. 157" 302A - Two weeks, 1300 mi - So far so good

    At the risk of being hoisted on my own pitard for posting about a $58k truck delvered in working order (what else should be expected?), I'm going to. After Ford gave me 7 months to ponder what to expect, I seem to have recieved what I'd anticipated, generally in line with the experiences of many...
  2. Long, sad saga of truck acquistion is over...finally.

    Some of you may have heard this before: 157" 302A 3.5EB ordered 3/13. Mid-July informed 18" PVD wheels not available, switch to 20's to stay on build schedule. 8/12 informed the truck with 3.5EB will not be built, but if I switch to PB, it will; made switch to PB. As of yesterday, still no build...
  3. No chrome on lower level XLT for '26 - what to look at

    I've had a 157" 302A ordered since March, still no build date. I've never been thrilled with the console necessary to get two power seats, nor am I thrilled that Ford forced me into a PB, deciding not to build the EB I ordered. Cancelling the existing order and re-upping for 2026 would seem to...
  4. Another truck ordered months ago won't be built

    Ford informed dealer Tuesday the the truck I ordered in mid-March won't be built as ordered (302A, 157", 3.5EB) citing "supply chain issues". But, if we swicth to a PB, they will built it. Seeing as A) a 3.5 EB is a necessary component of a PB, and B) two recent build truck of the same spec have...
  5. Any reason to prefer a '25 over a '24?

    XLT 302A 157". I've got one ordered but Ford seems to be reluctant to build it. Others have build dates for the same truck on orders placed after mine. So I've been inventory surfing and have found a '24 that checks all the boxes. I'd actually prefer the '24, as it has the 18" PVD wheels that...
  6. No 18" PVD wheels for XLT

    I put this up in the Wheel n' Tire forum, but thought I'd put it up here as well. Dealer told me today that Friday Ford told them that XLT's with a the 18" PVD wheels are on a functional production hold until at least mid-Q3, when a different version of the wheel would become available. Not...
  7. No 18" PVD wheels for XLT

    Dealer told me today that Friday Ford told them that XLT's with a the 18" PVD wheels are on a functional production hold until at least mid-Q3, when a different version of the wheel would become available. Not quite clear exactly what that wheel is, but it appears to be a very similar wheel but...
  8. Coming back to Ford...and an ode to a Tundra

    Newbie here. Long time Ford owner as my signature notes . In 2016 I didn't wish to once again be a guinea pig for Ford and the then-new aluminum body, so I looked at everything and found, even absent the alum body, I liked the gen 3 Tundra better. Gave $36.5K for a 5.7 double-cab SR5(Supercab in...
