2024 KR

[Eddie2021]

Order my King Ranch on January 26th and it's on the rail headed to the dealer should have by the end of the month they said. Can't wait. I will be adding my own chrome items since Ford decided not to keep that as a add on. Was able to buy online from the Ford Parts store then dealer, saved hundreds of dollars. Rapid Red 3.5 Powerboost.

Great, make sure to post pics here once you get it. Does it come with multicontour massaging seats? And split tailgate?

Congrats! Please post pics when it arrives. I was on the fence about getting the red but went with Antimatter blue instead only because I was unsure how it would look with the new darkened bronze secondary color.

Also, please confirm the 3rd brake light camera and massaging seats. I’m 99% sure it has both but there’s always that 1% that gets you.

But just post lots of pics!

Dealer said my 702A Platinum delivery estimated to be March 15th to 31st. Ordered Sept. 28th 23 . With all the issues we've faced I'm not too confident those dates are realistic.

Yes on the seats. I really hope it doesn't come with the new tailgate as i have my Chrome Appquie for it the tailgate as i rather have that one. Just my preference but if it comes with it am ok with it.

Congratulations! Can't wait to see the pictures. I went back and forth between the red and the star white tri-coat and went with the white. I think both look great with the bronze trim.

Congratulations, I ordered my KR PB Antimater Blue on 10/14, and it has been "in production" since 2/15. Only options added were WW liners and FX4 pkg, not much more you could add. They must consider you a VIP, ordered late and getting it early. I'm in SE Mi. and just a short distance from the Dearborn truck plant, so should be easy for Ford to load it on a truck and drop at my dealer. No idea what the status of my delivery is. They probably ran out of parking spots around here and shipped it off to N. Dakota or Timbuktu for storage, that would be the new Ford way of doing business. Still think Ford is playing games with the '24 late deliveries, wanting to sell off '23 inventory. I also didn't want the new tailgate. Last two trucks were Platinums, but when I added a moonroof to a Platinum built, it jacked the price up almost $6,000. Moonroof is standard on the KR, and when you compared all the options of a 702A Platinum to the base 601A KR, they are identical trucks except for the two-tone paint and cowboy leather interior. So this will be my first KR.

Yes just talked to my dealer and he stated that Ford was holding back on getting the 24's out until the 23 inventory got down. They are finally getting a couple 24 in this past week. This KR is replacing my 2020 KR which was my first and I really liked it, so hope the new one will be just as great. Will miss not having the V8 again something that i think Ford should have left as a option order standard as it was before. Wheel Well Liners,Spray in Bed Liner ,FX4 are the only other options i got. Also have a friend who works at the Kansas Plant so he's getting me a pin no for more discounts.

I think it is just plain stupid and bad business practice to withhold shipments of special order vehicles. It's not as if someone, who has made a special order and knows the truck has been built, will cancel the order and buy a year-old truck off a dealer lot. When you spend that kind of money, you want it exactly as you ordered. So unless there truly is a quality issue, Ford should be shipping special orders if they cared about their customers. And if there is a quality or parts issue, they should communicate that to their customers. Nothing pisses off a customer more than being lied to.
