05/16 Build Week

Yeah, I've noticed that too. I'm still going to throw a 2.5" leveling kit on it for the perfect looking stance (in my opinion). I'm trying to talk my wife into letting me get some 295/70/18 tires as well. Not going very well so far?

Easier to beg for forgiveness then ask for permission lol

Flew in to Philly this morning and 400 miles later we are home. Great dealership experience at Chapman, couldn't have been better.

I couldn't get Bluecruise to work but I was able to play around with the adaptive cruise. It works pretty well except for the overly sensitive "Keep your hands on the wheel" warnings. In a straight line it's a pain in the ass as you have to move the wheel to get it to shut up.

Love the wireless Android auto, used Waze all the way home. The only issue is my Pixel 6 died a few hours into the trip. It was on the charging pad and showed it was charging but after a few hours it shut down with 0% battery life. I had to plug it with the 120 volt plug to get it going again.

There is so much tech I need watch some videos on how to set some of it up. Good luck guys! Your day will come soon!

Were you expecting the chrome caps? I have Atlas Blue, sport appearance package with the tow mirrors. Im hoping mine are all black if Ford ever sees fit to ship it my direction

I was expecting them to be black like on the build site, but I also knew the 2021s were chromed on the Lariats so I'm not shocked. The pictures make them look worse than they are. I don't even notice, It's not worth my time to change them. You may feel differently.

I'm also not sold on the tow mirrors. They are really big and I feel like I'm just using the bottom part of the mirror. I'm less than 500 miles in so I have to give it a few weeks but I like the standard mirrors better so far. I'm sure they'll be great towing my boat and snowmobile trailers.

A friend has a 21 with the tow mirrors, im a fan and I have a camper. I prefer the appearance of the standard mirrors though.
If mine come chrome ill swap them out with black caps. It looks really simple on the various YouTube videos I watched.
Great looking truck, I love Atlas Blue

I couldn't help myself. Got it tinted this morning and it's the first time I've been able to detail it after I finished installing all my other accessories.

I am late to the party for the 5/16 Build week. But mine is stucking in the fun shipping limbo like it seems like most of the ones built that week are. Mine was Built 5/21 and got the email 5/22. Had an original delivery date of 6/2-6/8 (even got a call from my dealer on 6/2 saying they got a call from the trucking company that they had picked up, even showed shipped and in transit on ford tracking and ordertrack.app), then got an email pushing it to 6/18-6/24. On about 6/21 I look at both tracking things and it goes back to built awaiting shipment. I do Ford chat and they say no it never left sitting on Ramp 59 in Michigan. Still haven't got a new email pushing it out so don't know my date range but calling ford they said now 7/9 delivery. I feel like waiting for it to be shipped and delivered is the absolute worst part of this.

Got my truck on June 27. No fuss, no last minute dealer bs. Good experience.

Not sure why Ford still offers 1.99% interest rates given these trucks are in so much demand, but I'll take it.

Does anyone know if our trucks would, by default, be totally up to date software wise? At least as of our build date? I'm noticing my Powerboost is a little rough sometimes (and very rough once downshifting) so I'm wondering
