My delivery estimate is today thru the 2nd. It's the only estimate ive ever had so far. The train car was unloaded on the 23rd or the 26th (2 stops to unload) so seems like a reasonable estimate to me.

sick congrats! how do you know the shipping email was received after it was already half way?
Thanks! A bit of a nice surprise frankly.

My sales person was very good at keeping me informed of the status. he would text me where the truck was located at a few points in time. Chatted with Ford as well, but it was not very helpful.

Stopped by the dealer on the way home from work to sign some papers; can't take it until Thursday since Tower FCU slacked a bit but Azure Grey Metallic is wild in person in the sunlight.

No and it looks amazing in person. Almost Area 51 but with metal flake. I went with AMB but saw Azure last week live. Was too late to change, sadly.

Dealer checked on mine and its sitting in North Dakota. Looks like I might miss out on the 7500$. If that happens then that particular lightning becomes less interesting.

I'm in the same boat. They offered to cut me a check if Ford sends them one. I don't understand why the dealers are all so ill informed. For everything they have had to do for me, it has taken days for them to get back to me and they always have to "ask the ford rep." Unfortunately he is out until 1/3, and my truck is supposed to show up this week and I would like to take delivery before end of year. I called Ford directly and they confirmed that the Private offer of $7k and the $5k price match are available for me, but the dealer can't seem to figure it out. They told me to tell them to contact Ford Dealer services. Waiting for them to get back to me....
My dealer is saying the same. I can’t get anyone at the dealership to confirm that they’ve asked the ford rep (after a week of requests directly asking them to do so).

My truck has been sitting in the Mira Lima rail yard in California the last week waiting for the final delivery via truck. Ford moved the start of the delivery window up to December 30.

Expecting my truck to be delivered anytime now as per the dealer. Most probably tomorrow or in a couple of days. The Ford tracker never updated to shipped, it's been stuck at ready for shipment since 12/12.

The dealer has also confirmed the 7k+5k price discount (confirmed it on a written document) as compared to the current msrp. I have the AMB colored pro on order for 44k before taxes.

Status went from Delivery ETA 12/19-12/25 to updated today to 1/7-1/13. Come on @Ford Motor Company. The truck is being delivered in Michigan and has been built since 12/15. No tax credit for 2022. Let me hire a 3rd party and I can have the truck delivered today for less than $1,000.

It was a $795 upcharge for the Azure color. I really wanted the Atlas Blue or the Iced Blue silver but our choices of the 2023 colors forced me into the Azure color. I can't wait to see it in person.

ahh ok that may be why I didn't choose it. I knew I liked the avalanche color since I've seen it on mustangs and raptors so I didn't want to choose a color I've never seen and also pay for it.
