Just purchased a 2021 F150 PowerBoost 4x4 SCREW on Saturday. They hadn't done the Certified Per-Owned inspections yet so I have to wait a couple more days to take delivery. It is Lead Foot with black interior with 15,303 miles on it.

Alaska here. Always been a Ford guy, Just got rid of my original owner 05 XLT, did a complete timing job myself, lifters, oil pump etc and sold it for $9500 in Pristine condition. Ordered a 21 Lariat crew 6.5 bed, 3.5 ecoboost in May and received it 9/7/21 love it so far but don't have 3000 miles on it yet. Needs a new APIM as the display goes off and on. So far I have PPF on front along with a bugsheild, bilstein 5100 shocks on the rear, topper and bedrug, underseat storage, huskyliners on the floor, ceramic coating, running boards, splash guards, wheel well liners and extra set of wheels and tires for winter.

A quick hello from BC Canada. Put my order into day. A bit of a gong show. Glad I asked for a copy of my dealer’s order (they didn’t give me one), as it was wrong, managed to get it corrected.

My salesman was a bit vague about how I track my order, basically have to rely on updates from him. Can I get any info online?

Anyway ordered an Iconic Silver sports 4x4 XLT, Supercab, 2.7EB with 302a, Payload package, and all the bells and whistles inside.

Now the wait begins.

Hi, I'm from Sunny Central FL. I currently own a '17 F150, but I'll be getting my new '22 Lariat PB the middle of this month and I can't wait

It's a '22 Rapid Red Lariat Powerboost Fx4 with the 502a package, the Sport appearance package, and some other bits an bobs (7.2kwh pro power, bed utility package, 360 camera).

Got a pretty good deal on my '17 for trade in (a few thousand less than I paid for it over 4 years ago)and got this one for $4K under sticker so I think I'm happy with it

Brian here, time to replace my 2011 XLT so I ordered a 2022 XLT. The wait is going to kill me LOL!

Don from Florida here. I’ve been browsing the forum for the past couple months and have gotten a lot of useful information from you all. I hope to contribute as well.

Right now I have 2019 Lariat and looking to order a 2022 Platinum soon. Yep, I know the wait will be long but it’ll be worth it to get everything I want.

Hello from Texas. My 2022 F150 FX4 Lariat PowerBoost is in the process of getting accessories installed. A bed cover, mud flaps, and rear wheel well liners made the truck more useful off road.
The down hill crawl feature is great off road and the copilot 360 assist works good on the highway.

Hi everyone,

First time truck owner - I was waiting on a Maverick First Edition Hybrid in Rapid Red since July 15. After receiving an update that Ford wouldn’t build my preorder until 2023, I decided to just go ahead and purchase my ideal truck and picked up a F150 on the lot. I was able to purchase it under MSRP as well

I have a 3.5l Ecoboost F-150 Lariat super crew with the short bed in Rapid Red. I have a lot laundry list of things I’ve long needed or wanted a truck for:

• Overlanding
• Car camping, maybe with a trailer soon
• Hauling my gravel bikes to trail heads
• More beefier home improvement projects

It’s mostly going to be a leisure vehicle and I hope to have many years with my red truck. My next big mod is to get the Decked drawer system to improve the organization of my truck for the outdoor related activities.

Unfortunately my 2022 model was one of the ones with surface rust all over the rear differential and rear axle. After the dealership turned down to resolve rust and with most truck mechanics around me not really interesting on working on uncarriage repainting, I decided to just DIY and have begun using some rust remover and Rustoleum paint to take care of this issue.

Hello from New Jersey. I have been sponging up tons of info from the forum over the last few months. You guys have answered so many questions I've had just by doing a little searching around. I finally ordered a 2022 F150 FX4 Lariat PowerBoost and preparing for what sounds like is going to be a long wait.

Hello from K-town

I put my order in on February 1: for a 2022 F150 KR, star white, 5.0, 601a package, FX4, - pretty much loaded up (no Max Recl. seats)
I received confirmation two weeks ago that my order had been received and accepted, but no production date...yet.
Seems like what I’m reading - it’s gonna be a long summer….

Hello my name is Dennis, I ordered my XL Supercab 6.5' bed on 3/14. This will be my first new Truck since 97, I also had a F150 then. I just retired, waiting on a hip replacement, had a company van, currently driving a Nissan Frontier that I bought used in 2017. Looking forward to this new Truck probably be my last new vehicle. We have a trailer that I use the Frontier for, I'm sure the XL will have not issues, ordered the 5.0 and 3.73, 36 gallon gas tank, tow pkg. Hopefully it will come as ordered.
My 52 F1 is just my toy, I've restored it myself over the last few years, after the hip, I have a Oak bedkit to install, right now my left hip is so bad I cant even push in the clutch.

Love this Forum and also the other ones Ive found.

Good luck to everyone and their trucks.

Hey I'm Jay from Massachusetts. I am currently on my 2nd F150 and impatiently waiting on my 3rd. My first 2 trucks were a 98 ranger single cab, stepside bed and a 02 ranger ext cab, reg bed. Then got out of the truck game for a few vehicles and came back to a brand new 2014 F150 FX4 3.5EB. Had that for about 4 years and I traded for a 2019 F150 XLT Sport 2.7EB. Which bring us to now. Ordered a 2022 XLT Sport 5.0 back in January. I have enjoyed both EB engines and the 2.7 MPGs are impressive. Went with the 5.0 this time around only because I'm putting a small plow on it. Went the used plow truck route twice now and failed miserably (Don't ever buy a used plow truck!). Had a 2005 chevy 2500 and then a 2009 F350 and both ended up being junk. So decided to take both the 150 and 350 and trade them in for a new F150 with a small plow. Will only be doing my driveway and my parents when needed so decided to stay with the half ton and lightweight plow rather than get a super duty. I only plow a handful of times each winter so the super duty as a daily driver the rest of the time didn't make sense to me, I don't tow or haul anything either.

I already have a list of stuff to do to the 22 once it arrives. I'll miss the 2019 2.7EB for sure but looking forward to that coyote sound! Fingers crossed for a build date soon! All my 150s below
