My mods are done for now. I like the upgrade to LT tires and the Rough Country leveling kit.

Did anyone else in this build week get a NEMA L14-30 to NEMA 14-50 adapter in their frunk? Did Ford throw that in there or was that something my dealer did?
I did, sales guy pointed it out and said it came with it from Ford. Not from them.

A lot of the early 2022 trucks did, but later in the model year they stopped coming, or I didn't get one at least. I bought my own.

Unfortunately I am. I only hope both are trucks come at the same time so one of isn't left solo.
I chatted with ford customer service and they stated that it's still in production but the secondary status is that it has been received by the carrier. I am going to assume that carrier is the shipping entity.

Have you checked in with customer service lately? Curious to see what they have told you.

Still no update on my truck. Dealer/Ford customer service sounds like broken records.

I may be grasping for straws but here is something I stumbled upon:
  • The last update on my truck online is on 9/12/23
  • Looking at my dealers online inventory, I see a new truck that 100% matches my spec (311A) with a dealer inventory status of 'in transit'
  • When looking up the new trucks production status on the ford tracker, it shows that it was ordered on 9/18/23, scheduled for the 11/20/23 build week, but also shows that it is in production ahead of schedule (no tear tags yet).

@TaxmanHog, should I just classify this as a coincidence?

When a Window Sticker is generate [11/9], the order status moves to "In Production" this is normal.

@TaxmanHog Not sure if you keep stats on the follow up delivery of the FCSP, but mine arrived today, 19 days post sale. No email or tracking number or anything, just a random FedEx guy requiring a signature.
