When I saw your pic I went to my junk mail and found the same email - so thanks! Also an antimatter blue. I almost thought they were using a stock photo, but yours has a red truck behind it and mine does not. Dealer tells me it is in the rail yard here!

Mine was also in my junk mail. Lol

Thanks for the tip on junk mail, checked mine and the email was there.

I bet it is Antimatter Blue. They look very close to black in dark lighting. My pic also looks black but is Antimatter Blue. That's the main reason I wanted this color.

Thanks - I see the blue in your mirror caps. Mine is XLT with unpainted mirrors so there is no hint of blue in my photo.

It wasn’t an option when I ordered, but the dealer called me up and told me it was available. He added it on his side. Lots of people do seem to say the aftermarket ones are as good if not better.

I would like these, but definitely were not an option when I ordered. They probably did pop up in the dealer system between my order date and when I got scheduled, but I never knew or thought to check. Oh well. The lighted running boards are actually not bad at all. Not as slick as the power fold ones, but oh well. Looks like a pricey option to add as aftermarket.

I double checked the photos again - yours has different running boards. Interesting how they have the same white piece of litter by the front tire. All exiting the same day maybe!

I have a feeling once trucks go to ramp 51, it's all random from there! maybe it's up to the tech/engineer to grab and fix cars blocking the way before getting inner cars! .. it doesn't look like first in first out at all.

It clearly is not.

That is good news! Was hoping for a Christmas gift but at least it's getting closer! Thanks for the feedback.

My $

Yeah, I understand for credit, but this is a cash deal. Also, price locked at MSRP, but my understanding was the deposits would be applied against the purchase price. There was also a $499 Admin fee added, which I thought was a little underhanded as well after agreeing to an MSRP only deal, but I did not challenge that.

my $100 and $500 deposit came off as part of my down payment

After pushing the issue further, I did get a call later from the dealer that said they would redo the paperwork and make those part of the payment, so I have a small amount of redemption in the process. Also received the attached this morning, so some movement.

I'm still not convinced they send out exact pictures of individual trucks to everyone. Sure, the tech is there and all. But something about it always seems a bit off.

How long after built are you guys seeing your pictures? I'm now shipped, my truck was marked built a week ago. No picture just yet.
