Here is the build sheet from a CDN dealer Eh!. Hope you all can open it. It's an interactive PDF so use Acrobat reader. Didn't work on Mac's preview for example. My order is going in the order book tomorrow I've been told. I already emailed my dealer the build I want.
Care to share your build? Compared to the US, the jump from XLT to Lariat is significant. Thinking I’ll go XLT ER with tow package, fold flat storage.

Now to convince myself I could do ok with the SR battery. I’d like an XLT with virtually no options. I’m not sure that the extra 100km of range is worth $13,000. I get that you lose 30% in freezing temps, try to keep it between 10-80% charged most of the time, etc.

It is quite the jump. I want V2H, which I know I can do with the SR, but would need to then purchase the upgraded charger and pay whatever the random activation fee is. At least in the US you get added content with the ER price jump.

With the liberals luxury tax being considered, could add 20% to an optioned lariat if I read the tax info correctly. Looking through the pricing if I go through with this xlt with most boxes checked will be my choice

To confirm, the XLT ER does not require the XLT premium package like it does in the US?

Xlt prem is the only package offered in Canada, doesn't look like we get a base option with 20 inch wheels being the smallest option. Tire upgrades on the US look to be $150 and Canada a $1000 to go to all terrain

It’s a good deal for Canadians. My desired build (XLT+ER with Tow Technology Package and Max Trailer Tow) is CA$85,695. The US equivalent is US$76,429 or CA$98,279.

Although it doesn’t look like we get rear signature lighting on the XLT. Oh well.

$100k easy taxes in. Yikes. When does Canada update the EV incentives? I heard a rumor the threshold may be moving up to account for the trucks.

heated seats and steering wheel should be an option on any EV at any trim level for canada. this alone would increase your winter range over using the vents. heated steering wheel only available on the platinum is lame.

Heated black leather steering wheel and heated seats are standard on all XLT’s in Canada

Miata, Lightning Lariat

Rapid Red Lariat with 511A package. Gotta have a Pano Roof so no other choice. Apparently this still doesnt include a heated steering wheel. Not great but already stretching the budget as I originally thought I'd chose a Lariat, add PanoRoof. Didn't really want the ER. Didn't want to spend for a Platinum.

Was told likely September delivery but who knows.

Just got off the phone with my dealer. Taking orders for 5-8 allocations, but can't state where I would be in those allocations. Asking for a $13K dealer markup on the truck. I declined to order.

Too late to switch dealers now I would imagine, and I bet most around here are doing the same thing.
