F150 SQ Platinum - June 6th build week

[BWB915]

My smoked quartz platinum is scheduled for build this coming week and is showing the multi-contour seat removal on the window sticker. I’ve heard of others with late May builds that showed the same who ultimately got those seats in their build.
Anyone else with builds this coming week or two that don’t have the seat removal on their window sticker? Any chance I get lucky and get the seats?

I have a 22 platinum that was booked for July 18 build and my dealer told me contour seats, max recline and park assist would be removed and that I’m lucky because they are also planning to remove power tailgates from the upcoming builds. I told them I don’t want the truck anymore unless it’s what I’ve ordered.

Wow that’s a lot being removed! Geez they’re really going down fast aren’t they? I mean within a month they expect to drop two more key features in the max recline and park assist. At this point I don’t know why anyone would order one anymore. I’m just losing the multi-contour feature and I’m even considering letting the dealer keep it.

Mine is scheduled to be built tomorrow and I'm missing my multi contour seats according to the window sticker. Very disappointed.

I went by my dealers today. My build completion was bumped back a few weeks again. It is in a big auto complex with multiple makes and dealers available in a 2 block area. Most the lots were fairly empty except for the Chrysler lot that was packed. So Ford and your dealer know they will sell your truck to someone else if you drop it. Ford can't produce enough trucks to keep them on the lot.
My SQ Platinum has been in production for over 2 months and I am not sure if it is the multi contour seats that are holding it up because they are in the truck but who knows if they have the chips to make them function. I am already not happy with the park assist removal am I going to skip the powerboost and generator that limited longhorn Ram 1500 that still has it's park assist features? I am not a fan of Ram or I would. There are 12 new rams sitting on the lot at a friends dealership. The Chevy lots around are empty. Same with Toyota, Honda, and Kia. Subaru had a few more vehicles. SO yep Ford will remove your features to either make more lower model trucks or put the chips in it's flagship the Lightning. It was good to be the king while it lasted but ICE f150 is so last year...... Bet you all are like me and can't wait to pay 7 dollars a gallon so we can continue to make an "incredible transition" to electric (and yet we can't get a lightning for a few years.)

Loss of a multi contour seat means your driving a glorified lariat

... but it would say "platinum"

I didn't go with the platinum because of the exterior look honestly. Went with Lariat 502A + options which was still much less than the plat. I get that some interior materials are also upgraded on the platinum, but I'm okay with wood looking plastic ?

Not sure why anyone would order a platinum or limited these days with all the deletions on options.

If I could switch it to a high end Lairat, without the additional delays, the removal of price protection, etc I would.

For fun, I just tried to max out a Lariat. Did I miss something? But are the Powerboost Hybrids only on KR, Platinum, and Limited? [Edit] I should add, I'm referring to new builds on the website.

You can def get a powerboost lariat, my buddy has one. But looks like Ford deleted it off the website . . . .

Too many chips ya'll.

I believe powerboost is only available on a supercrew. The B&P site defaults to a crew cab on a lariat trim.

That's correct, they need the SuperCrew configuration as the battery is mounted under the rear passenger section of the cab.

If I hadn't ordered MY21 or known that it woud be rolled to at MY22 I would have totally gone for a fully loaded atlas blue blackout PB SCREW lariat. I love Smoked Quartz but IMHO Atlas blue is slightly better with the BAP. I would take Smoked Quartz and chrome over Antimatter or Velocity blue any day. But that's just my preferences.

Did you really order your platinum last Aug and it still hasn't been built??
