So I went to the dealership today, and was able to lock in the 0% for 72 seven thought the truck hadn't arrived yet. Just thought yall would be interested to know it is possible some places once they have the vin

This is VERY interesting to me. My salesman was pretty adamant that the truck had to physically be at the dealership and me take possession in order to lock it in. I need to learn your magic since the one I'm purchasing won't likely arrive for another week, maybe two.

I would definitely call and ask for a manager or finance. It was possible here in NV but results may vary by state od imagine. (My tuck is in transit btw and expected 9/12-9/18)

I may try again tomorrow just for sh*ts and giggles. I mean the worst they could tell me is no (again). And good point about State location. That might be a factor, but I'm not sure. ETA for mine is around the same time frame as yours.

Here we go. ~8 days until ETA for many of us here on microchip hold.

Think Ford will receive a batch this week and get these trucks shipped out or are we looking at another ETA slip towards the end of the week? My excitement has dulled quite a bit through the sludge of waiting.

I honestly doubt it. The trucks are gonna be sitting for awhile and I don't think there will be any movement for the vast majority of these trucks for at least 3-4 weeks, and probably longer. I think the end of October is probably more realistic.

Same here. I've received the same response from 3 dealers that I have to wait until delivery. 2 of those dealers are here in NC and the third is Chapman Ford in PA where I ordered from.

Hey Dudes.

Sorry to hear so many of you got stuck on delivery. I just did about a 700 mile week end trip up to Jacksonville and back to S. Florida. Truck performed beautifully. I have about 1400 miles on it now.

5.0 3.73 Gears 4x2 ... I averaged 21mpg on the highway cruise set to 82mph (about 2200 rpm). I purchased a wrist weight in Jacksonville and drove 300 miles on i95, only touching the steering wheel to change lanes. The Future is here.

With the KC shut down and Dearborn going from 3 shifts to one I wonder if those chips will go to those of us waiting....

We can hope. Hopefully a portion of the Dearborn shift is walking through the F-150 fields, installing components.

Glad you love your new truck!

What's the weight for?

wrap the weight at the 5 or 7 o clock position on the steering wheel and the Co Pilot Assist wont ask you for steering input every 15 seconds. Sort of a poor man's BlueCruise.

Just got off the phone with Ford performance. Not sure how accurate this is but apparently my truck was built on

My sales guy said the same thing over the phone so I called the general manager and locked the incentive to my order.

I gave it a shot myself and spoke with the director of sales at the dealership and wow, it worked! He was able to approve the offer and apply to my truck. I think because we're in the "Fall chip hold" group, Ford gave them a way to either transfer my previous incentives on my original order back in June OR apply the 1,000 off and the zero percent for 72 months offer for a new truck that was a dealer order and set to arrive within the next couple of weeks. In my case, the current, zero percent was a much better offer over the life of the loan compared to the previous "private" offer Ford offered me.

For any of you wanting to take advantage of the financing special, please call your dealership and speak with someone in management. It ends today and you may have a good chance of getting it approved.
