Who has their order new F150 Tremor order in? What time frame are you expecting to take delivery?
 
Just put it in, today. I won't know until it is entered into fords build queue but I'm guessing mid to late September.
 
Looks like the dealer I put my original order in with hasn't done anything with the order, yet. Dropped them like a cold road apple and went with Granger. I can't believe I'm spending the extra money on some of this stuff but trying to get my wife more comfortable driving the truck (so I can borrow her Bronco for tight trail trips)
**Order Porn**
 
Technically ordered and confirmed with dealer but no information confirmed from Ford. Friend of dealer owner so confident it is input. Can provide follow up once confirmation received. Has anyone received confirmation yet?

Nothing yet. We're all sitting in the limbo of "clean - unscheduled" with some limited exception.
 
That's promising to see them hitting lots. As I understand it the Torsen option was not in the original option list so might be a mid year addition.

Agreed it sure is a good sign. What surprises me is that dealer isn't really a large volume dealer like others in my area. Its a good sign they have two on the way.
 
I ordered on the day it opened (6/17) and still don't have a VIN. Dealer still estimates Sept/Oct for delivery.

Based on something I read recently, that October seems to be a recurring theme but for build dates not delivery dates. At this point I'm guessing at a November delivery if everything else is accurate
 
The rumor mill is saying the first custom order Tremors are getting VINs, today.

I’ve heard the same. Fingers crossed!
 
Did anyone get their VIN? I placed and order 7/26/21 and have had zero communication from ford on it. I actually sold my 2020 Jeep wrangler Willys for a down payment in preparation as my wife and I can make due with one car until I get my ford. Today I called in to confirm everything is ok with my order as I have never done a custom order before and would have expected at least SOMETHING from ford acknowledging my order exists. The guy I ordered from wasn't there and the guy who picked up the phone was super rude and laughed at me saying there is no way I'm getting my tremor until march 2022 at the earliest and that I need to "calm down and google 'ford chip shortage'". I'm not an idiot lol, I just was told it would be 8-12 weeks, not months LOL. Anyway, I'm just that guy was just wrong... right...?

This Tremor roll out from Ford has been a real bust to say the least. Ford did a great job raising prices and killing incentives. I called around a few dealerships in my area and the best I could do now is MSRP on a Raptor order. IMO MSRP is a ripoff. I'm going to stick to my original plan and wait. I'm one of the lucky one's that still has a Truck My 2013 FX4 has 65,000 miles on it. Things were much different back in 2013 when I ordered it. Now who know's.

I got my order in the day the banks opened on 6/17. I’m first on the list at my dealer and they are a pretty high volume truck dealership, so get a lot of allocations. My order is in with a priority 10 and don’t have a VIN as of this morning. That said, I’m trying not to bug them, the last thing I want is to feel like I’m a burden. The last communication we had was the other day to remove the start/stop function in hopes it would lessen my delays and they confirmed they changed my order.

I’ve always planned on keeping my Raptor until it arrives because we can’t live without 2 vehicles. The only bad part is that I was hoping to avoid my shock rebuild and new tires on the Raptor, but not gonna happen…oh well! 1st world problems…haha.

May I ask why your going to a Tremor and not another Raptor?
 
I absolutely love the way the Raptor looks and think it’s superior to the Tremor in that aspect, but I think the Tremor will be a more usable truck for me. I’ve had trails where the width of the Raptor was an issue and payload/towing capacity for utility as well. As for the off-roading capabilities, I live in a mountainous area where I can’t really open the Raptor up and the Tremor has the advanced off-road features to suit my needs. The interior is almost identical except missing the carbon fiber package. I’m just worried I’ll miss the HO engine, the 4.10 gears and the looks of the Raptor, but only time will tell. Worst case I’ll drive it for a couple years and hop back into a Gen 3 Raptor when dealers are going below MSRP and you can get the 37 package in something other than blue interior.
 
I've dropped ASS (yes, I'm a juvenile) and removed the bedliner. Auto start/stop does nothing for me and while I dig the idea of the Ford logo from the factory liner, I'll never see it. I've heard the bedliners are delaying delivery by a few weeks and I'm starting to get a bit nervous about payload so poof!

I dropped them from mine too. I emailed Ford Performance today and found out I'm scheduled for build the week of Oct. 18th. After seeing pictures of the rear leaf springs I'll likely replace with Deavers anyway, so I'll tune the payload as needed once I see how it does with my normal loadout.
