Hop on the road!! Not too bad a drive to Pasco from Spokane ! Can’t wait to see the photos.

I will when they tell me it's ready to go! I'm getting a bunch of things added so it may take a few days...

Congrats! I'm from the 2/1 build week, and for what it's worth, it took my Limited 1 month to get from Dearborn to Spokane (where I live), my dealer is in Pasco however, and it was unloaded and awaiting a truck to get my truck down to Pasco. So I'm still waiting,

The truck left on a train from Dearborn on 2/10. Got to Spokane on 3/11.

Good to know, thanks!

I didn't get a shipping notification email, but today the tracker showed "Shipped."

My brother's 2021 took about a month as well, so sounds like that's just we get on the west coast.

Mine did too - updated today with no changes that I could discern.

My window sticker updated every Monday for at least a month. Only thing that changed was the date..

But then, after the regular weekly non-update update, which was on 3/8, there was an update on 3/11. I thought that was weird. And again, nothing changed. Until I got the build notification on 3/14.

So maybe that's a sign? Maybe? Hopefully?

Finally picked it up today, and it was worth the wait. Everything about the truck is top notch and a huge step up from my 2016 XLT.

I can’t say enough about Chip and the rest of the team at Granger. The pickup was quick and painless.

I put 350 miles on today and averaged 20.8 mpg per the trip computer.

The truck is quiet on the road and it does not feel like it’s going nearly as fast as it is! The ride is smooth and comfortable.

The overall power and drive is way better than the 3.5 EB in my current truck. I’m sure some is due to the PB vs EB, but I think they have really refined the engine and transmission and it shows.

I’m still learning and getting used to Bluecruise, adaptive cruise, lane assist, CarPlay and the other features. The B&O system is good for a factory system and I’m not disappointed with it. It’s not as good as the aftermarket system in my 2016 though but I didn’t expect that it would be.

The tow mirrors still look a tad big to me (IMO the standard mirrors on the prior gen were just the right size) but the visibility they provide is excellent. I’m happy with that choice.

Here are a couple pics. The AMB and Carmelo interior is a great combo. I had not seen it in person before I ordered.

Congratulations to the few who have gotten shipping notifications recently.

And good luck to everyone else. It’s been a long road for me but worth it.

Got the AMB as well. Love seeing photos of it in the real world. Beautiful color. (Sorta regret not getting the Carmelo interior, but so it goes.)

UPDATE: Got the shipping email this morning. Says it should arrive between June 3-9 (while "built" notification said April 7-13.) So, either the train it's on is taking a grand tour of the United States, or they've hitched it to a team of horses and it's following in the steps of Lewis & Clark.

Or the shipping ETA is wrong. (I'm choosing to believe this one, although I kinda like the horse idea.)

Stopped by the dealership today. They have received only 1 Special Ordered 2022 F150 since ordering began in Oct 2021.

Saw on 1/17 week that if you want a BAK tonneau cover you can get a discount by calling the order number on there website and telling them what you want to order and that you saw something about a discount on a ford forum. Someone said whichever one they ordered was about $100 off list price.

That was me. It’s a pretty good discount and worth making a phone call and mentioning the forum pricing. It was more than $100 if I recall. They will tell you it takes 4 to 6 weeks for delivery but I got mine in two, so they blew the estimate out of the water unlike Ford with their trucks.

 

[Mike G-Man]

Talked to the sales manager at my dealer. My truck has been banished to ramp 51 in Flat Rock, MI.

Congrats to everyone getting their trucks. Keep the pictures coming (unless you have a rapid red lariat sport, I might cry if I see one of those).

I’ve had my rapid red power boost lariat sport for a few weeks now. You’re going to love it, it’s definitely worth the wait

My rapid red lariat sport is built, at ramp 51. status released Awaiting shipment. I hope it ships sooon. If it’s showing released I wonder if it has all the chips and is truly ready to ship? Also I did order the x4s thanks to your post ended up being $235 under list. Ordered March 7 and is supposed to be delivered tomorrow, so thank you. Lol

@TN Rotty - Could this one delivery to Koons have been your 2022 Platinum ordered on Oct 2?

Awesome, congrats on both! You're in the home stretch. Where in NY are you? I'm near Utica. If I see another Rapid Red anytime soon I'll wonder if it's you.

August 14th! I thought it was May 14th - when did Ford tack on another three months?

I just received a VVR Full History screenshot of my King Ranch order through Chapman. No change - still at Ramp 51 in Flat Rock on micro chip hold since Feb 25th after being produced on Jan 25th at Dearborn. End date in the ETA columns is still May 22nd.
