Did you have a bed liner? We have the same in production date and I’m trying to figure out if my hold up is trim (only XLT and Pro have built so far) or bed liner.

I did not order a bed liner

Take a look at this regarding the private offer.

I'm confused about this. My sticker says my bare-bones Pro has a base price of $51,974. That's $5k higher than the price on the purchase agreement I signed with my dealer. I extended by order from January 2022 because they didn't have Pros when my turn to order came up. Ford said we were price protected this summer, I ordered in Wave 1 on Aug. 11, signing an agreement for a $46,974 truck. That was supposed to mean my base price would be $39,974 after the private offer. If this sheet is correct, Ford ate most of their own private offer in a $5k price increase. Should I be expecting a private offer of $12k off my Pro, are they going to "fix" the base price to be what I agreed to, or what?

Supposedly, Pros will be "price protected" for the $5k price increase, PLUS the $7000 private offer, but no one has actually BOUGHT a 2023 Pro, yet, so it's all a bit academic at this point. I would think dealers should have the info to nail this down for trucks that will be arriving in the next couple weeks, so I'm hoping someone posts a pricing document showing how it all works, soon.

This shows on the reservation/order status page. I did not expect to see the delivery window there. Delivery before Thanksgiving would be awesome!

Congrats! Hoping I'm right behind you!

private offer is just a cert that shows under your reservation. ford chat/CS can see if you have one. it won't tell them how much till you purchase. I was also told this offer expires jan 3 2023 so every start crossing their fingers they trucks get delivered this year....

The order just needs to be placed before Jan 3rd for the incentive to work. The incentive is tied to the trim level, once they add the VIN it will work. The extra 5K for the price could be dicey as that will likely be separate form the certificate through traditional price protection.

In Production - 10/25/2022, no build date yet. Ford Chat is telling me my estimated delivery is 11/14 - 11/20. Trying to stay optimistic that I will receive a built / shipped date soon!

I posted about this. The $7k private offer is different than normal price protection. You are tied to the $46k price because that’s what it was when you ordered. So the private offer will remain at $7k off the $46k

Was your blend date the 27th by chance?

Blend was the 25th

Just went to check window sticker and it has now disappeared.... Hope this is not a bad sign

Just got off the phone with Ford CS. No longer have a chip hold and is awaiting shipment. He isn’t allowed to tell me it is built as it hasn’t changed in the system. He says the next update will mark it as that. Delivery date is still 11/16. 10/27 blend date

I believe you were told this...there is no way that is true.

Pro's that ordered Wave 1 were given the PCO and were originally quoted Fall 2023 as their build date. There is a 0% chance Ford leaves those people out to dry after they placed an order knowing they were getting the PCO.

just going by what the ford cs rep told me.

That happened to someone else recently. Either in this thread or the 10/17 build week and it came back. Probably just a quirk of Ford's system.

@518hunter @DakAC @claybird22 @alexose @UFLightning Any updates from you all?

Yep! In production 10/28, tear tag on 10/29 (I think).

Still not showing as built.
