23 F150 Platinum, 21 F150 Powerboost
Hi All:

New member! Just traded in my Jeep Gladiator on a New 21 Powerboost in Antimatter Blue. Took Delivery about a week ago. So far I'm loving the F150. Really liked my Gladiator too, but needed a bit more Power and a bit more Truck.

2021 F150 Lariat PowerBoost
Hello from Central Texas. Picked up a 21 Lariat PB this week. Coming from Chevy TB with the 6.2L. This forum has already helped me with a hopefully minor breaker reset issue.

2021 Ford F-150 XL STX
Hello forum!
Steve from PNW Washington State. My current is a ‘01 Ranger XLT that I bought six years ago as a D.D. I had a take home company car for several years so I rarely drove it. I changed careers and have been using my Ranger for my 73 mile commute up to two or three times a week.

I just bought an Oxford White 2021 F-150 XL STX 2.7 from Gillis Auto Center. I’ve been looking at a new vehicle for several months from the Bronco to the F-150 to the Ranger and back to the F-150 for the win. I really didn’t want black or Oxford white but it was the only one I could find with the option I wanted/must have. Still haven’t picked it up because of scheduling & other logistics but it’s safely parked at the dealership waiting for me. Can’t wait to get my STX home.

1950 Plymouth, 2021 F-150 Lariat 500a
Occupation

I feel like this is an AA meeting introduction, lol.

High, I'm Randy and I'm buying a 2021 F-150 Lariat (ordering this weekend.) It's been a while since I've had a truck. Currently drive a 2017 Hyundai Ioniq hybrid that gets 59 mpgs daily driving. Wife and I started camping this year with a pop-up and decided we want to upgrade in about a year to a small 20-24 foot camper. Decided on the Lariat with 2.7 4x2 with 3.55 locking rear diff since I'll only be towing around 5000 lbs only once a month (we go camping once a month). I seem to have a pretty odd order since I haven't seen any Lariat's with just the 300a option.

2021 F-150 Order
4x2 Lariat with 300a package
Adaptive Cruise with 360 camera (Copilot Assist 2.0)
Trailer Tow Package
3.55 Gears with Locking Diff
Front 20/40/20 Seats

2021 Space White Lariat SCAB 5.0 4x2
Hi, I’m Ryan and I am an F150 orderer.

I’ve been reading and posting in this site quite a lot to pass the time since ordering and I feel like I’ve run out of things to read.


Last truck was a 2001 Ranger XL manual. That was a fantastic truck. For some reason along the way I went to a 2011 Escape which I had been driving up until I ordered the F150. For the last 3 months I have been without a car because a month or two after placing my order I got overconfident and sold the Escape.

My truck is a Space White Lariat 501A 5.0 with just about all the fixins.

Is it just me or does the wait get like 10 times worse a week or two after you get that shipped status?

My current is a 2001 Ranger supercab XLT 4.0 manual. Agreed, it’s been a near trouble free vehicle. I am sincerely hoping my 2021 SuperCrew 2.7 will be just as trouble free.

2011 F150, Soon to be 2021 hybrid
Hi, I'm Ron and I'm trying to quit...???

I ordered a new Ford truck in March supposedly to be delivered in ~6weeks. As you know it's soon to be August and and I don't have said truck, which was allegedly physically built back in April. After extensive delays and frustrations with little to no promising updates, I promised myself a month or two ago ago to cancel and move on... Possibly back to GMC if I didn't have it by July 31 for my own mental health after receiving the dreaded and ridiculous 10/31 eta update from original 6/16 eta.
Well... It "built" July 10th + "shipped" July 12th. It's been 18.5 weeks. Its got 3 days left to arrive before I blow a circuit. Im sure if it comes in I will grow to love it (like an overpaid 1/4 model year depreciated step-kid) but I literally don't even have any excitement left for this new truck. Very disappointed in Ford for lack of transparency, lack of communication and offering additional $ rebate to customer orders placed after April 1 for their "delay"... Most of those trucks were delivered in May and June while trucks ordered last year, Jan, Feb and March are just being shipped and delivered. ??

2021 f150 lariat powerboost (ordered 07/21)
Hello everyone! I'm Austin from Idaho, I submitted my order for a carbonized gray Lariat 502A Screw 6.5 ft. powerboost with FX4, tow package, tow mirrors and other things. This will be my first truck and convinced the wife we needed to order one since the price of used ones are ridiculous. I have a scheduled-to-week of August 23rd. We shall see what happens!

'22 F-150 XLT 302A Sport
Hi all! I'm a long-time lurker, very recent contributor. I recently pulled the trigger on a XLT 302A 2.7EB SCREW order. Was humming and hahing between Ram or Ford and ultimately decided the Ford was the better truck for my needs. This is going to be my first pickup and can't wait.

I don't have the build details from the dealer but am hoping for a late 2021 delivery to coincide with my current lease expiry. I'm in a manual '19 WRX and it's going to be extremely bittersweet to give it up.

Looking forward to learning more before I take delivery! Here are my order details:
  • XLT 302A
  • SuperCrew, 5-1/2' Box
  • Carbonized Grey
  • 2.7L EcoBoost, 4X4
  • 2.7L EcoBoost Payload Package
  • Sport appearance package
  • Spray-in bedliner
  • Wheel well liners
