I think it's the SR rather than the trim because there don't seem to be any Lariat SRs reported. But then no XLT ER's either...however very small sample set on those.

If XLTs are peasants. What are the pros?

 

[Fordskeptic]

Has EPA certified the Lightning yet and does EPA have to certify each trim?

Lottery winners?

That is normal for a new model launch. In 2014 when launching the new aluminum truck, we only built crew cabs for the first few months. I think the 2021 redesign was the same way. Seems to be the normal way a lot of manufacturers do it.

So what is your best guestimate when the lowly Pro model will be scheduled.

No clue. But if I had to guess, maybe the next batch will have some. I would think Ford would want to have some built in the period from Job1 to OKTB.

But they probably aren't going to all be built early. So, with the Pro's being sold out in the first wave of ordering, some of those trucks will get pushed to the end of the model year. That means some of the earliest orders could have the longest wait.

Couple threads going with this activity, posted here for awareness.

Responses so far, all Lariat ER with a mix with or with Max Tow & three Platinums
Sorted first by Est Build date then by wave date.

That hardly seems like a lottery winner.

Good news! You can order first. Bad news, you gets yours last…
