On 12/9/21, I ordered an XLT, 302a, 3.5l, 17t, 4x4, 36 gallon tank. No 53c, no bed liner, grey interior...I'm a chrome guy, don't like the BAP, ...outside of the bed utility package(step), nothing that should slow things down (to my knowledge), right? I have a blend date of 2/8, so that's...

Much respect for that delayed gratification. That's going to be an awesome truck when it arrives. I'm not in a position where I could wait that long, leases and accidents etc. I am curious if it's just because of all the options on the Platinum? or if you're Max Tow, HDPP, bedliner, etc..

It's probably me being dense, but I don't understand what this means. I've been stuck "in production" since 2/1 and my blend date was yesterday 2/8. I dont mind waiting, but I'm not tolerating the lack of communication much longer. If it werent for these forums, I would have absolutely no...

It's an actual package, 52X. It might not be all that bad if you end up with it, you can deactivate it and it may be good for resale when gas goes up to $6 a gallon, lol.

Ugh, I just got my dealer to to add the Auto Start Stop this morning (56x?). Well, I tried at least. If it comes with it, at least I know there are things I can do to get rid of it.

Same order, new VIN. So I didn't lose my spot. I have my issues with my salesman, but the dealership and the sales manager have done a good job to this point.

As I am not a mechanical engineer nor a lawyer, so I have no idea if without the tow package does it lower your gcwr or create any additional legal liabilities if you tow north of 7000lbs w/o 53A or 53C and get into an accident. I think you're heading where I ended up. I have a 3.5L, 3.55...

I ordered a 2.7L XLT with no Tow package on 12/09/21, I had a build week of 02/07/22 within a week. My salesman was no help and this was my first full sized pickup, I was learning as I went along. You order the truck, you get excited so you start getting online and learning more about the...

I don't have my truck yet, but I assumed it wasn't coming with this feature...now I'm realizing it might. Is this screen something that comes up every time you drive? Or is it just in one special spot in the menu where, if you arent in it, you'll never see it?

Any idea if there's a tremendous wait time for Powerboost trucks? Or no worse than any of the other trucks? I've been told my build is happening the week of 2/7, if it gets postponed, that may give me the nudge I need to just cancel the thing and go the Powerboost/53a route. With a different...

I completely understand your point of view as well, I've been borderline obsessed with this issue through the whole process. I'm past the point of changes, they're supposed to build in 2 weeks. To be honest, I still consider cancelling the whole thing and reordering the same truck, just with...

Well put. One of the reasons I ordered the 3.5L is because you get all the functionality of a full size pickup and more, without having to join that club.

Yes, that's why I attached an image of the subtext they put in the Tow Guide, I'm painfully aware that they don't consider the 17t a "Tow Package" and say you can't pull more than 7,000lbs without the 53a. What I'm saying is, in 2020, I wouldn't have hesitated to add the 53a and move on with...

I'm guessing you know what it sounds like because you've spent a lot of time watching them pull away from your antiquated V8.

That's interesting, I'd be curious if you get a response. I did "chat" with someone on their website, she told me no upgrades in the 53a, but she was just copying and pasting quotes out of the Tow Guide. She didnt really have any unique information. I actually eventually just told the sales...

So glad to see this post, confirms I'm not crazy (at least on this topic). I actually got in an argument with my salesman over this and now deal with the sales manager directly. He kept pushing the 53a because of subtext #2 in the 2022 tow guide (page 21) saying you need the 53a in order to...
