Chip has handled my order.. Remember to compare the out the door price. Granger's dealer fees are the lowest I have found.

Thank you for your support!

If you want, you can private message me your name and VIN and I can reach out to our rep and see if he can get any information on why it is on hold.

I know exactly what you mean. I ordered Jan. 8th, truck was built Feb. 15th, and schedule for delivery approximately 5 times. Today I received a noticed that the truck is still under quality control inspection, with a possibility of shipping 07/30. I could care less when it arrives. The excitement of getting the all new F150 has gone out the window.

In all honesty, you are all "Ford" to me, and you (meaning Ford dealer/factory) should not pit one against the other with the customer. The experience should not be this hard and infuriating. I shorted the stock because the level of incompetence and lack of care at all levels can not be exclusive to just me. Given that they steadfastly refuse to give me any technical explanation on the 4 month quality hold, I have to assume I am getting a lemon with a problem they can not easily solve...and that I will be stuck with, like all of the billions in recalls current Ford owners are suffering through.

Well Folks,
First I want to thank all of you for the responses, thanks Chip at Granger for your professionalism.
It was quite the hassle free experience.

I sold cars at a Ford dealership for a while in San Antonio. I sold a lot of trucks.
This will be Ford truck number six for me. Must be genetic, My Grandfather worked for Ford for 30+ years,
In Dagenham, England.


Wish Ranch Hand still made a rear bumper for the F-150...

The drive back is pretty cool..... I took the opportunity to explore some great civil war memorials/sites of major battles, stayed off the main roads as much as possible and explored little towns along the way and had such a blast....

Took 3 days to do what was otherwise an 11 hour drive and met so many cool people along the way back to DFW.... just goes to show what happens when we get out and actually explore this amazing countryside...

I feel all of your pain. I ordered a F150 259 days ago and still do not have a build date. Ford will be closing their order banks sometime in August and Sept and Oct will be the last two months MY24s will be manufactured. Since Ford has so many supply issues, my 24 F150 will not be built. Not sure what my options will be and ordering a MY25 will result in the same experience with a wait time of additional 250 plus days after ordering. Ford needs to fire all of those in their logistics department. If you advertise a model and trim level and can't deliver did not do their job prior to advertising. Sorry for the rant.

Who did you order the truck from?

Has the dealership confirmed that the order is clean with no hold ups?

I ordered a Platinum with the 702A package, Power Boost, PAT, FX4, spray in bed liner, wheel well liners, front and rear mud flaps, rain guards front and rear 157" WB. The entire truck is a hold up.
