Jan 10th Build Week Thread

FYI Anyone who ordered a 2021 or 2022 F150 Tremor with the 400a or 401a package prior to February 2022 was promised the Raptor transfer case as standard equipment (see order guides from 9/15/21 or 1/3/22). As you are aware, those trucks were assembled with the part-time transfer case. After several months of back and forth, persistence finally paid off. Andrew, a supervisor with Ford Marketing, finally agreed to have my transfer case swapped free of charge at my local dealership and covered under warranty!! Contact Ford Marketing at 800-334-4375. Ask for Andrew or Conner.
I doubt that very much.
 
My truck is taking the scenic route without me I guess. I asked the Ford rep about that and all she could say was "every truck takes their own path to production" as if they are sentient haha.

I just realized that we ordered the same equipment group and same color, and looks like there's a real chance it'll show up at Granger around the same time.

Sounds like some Jedi Sh!t right there....

Cool story bro... seriously though, my sarcasm is purely out of jealousy and frustration with Ford at this point.
 
Im starting to lose hope. Realistically I could see Ford not touching some of these trucks until right before they start producing MY2023s in the fall. Finish off the 2022 then switch over to 2023.
 
Almost fell off my toilet just now.

So it took more than a month to arrive. Man that’s frustrating when mine has been sitting 3+ weeks waiting to ship.

Mine has shown built and Awaiting shipment since June 6th. Does it really take that long to schedule shipping?
More importantly does anyone know if a dealership can personally pickup built vehicles from the factory? My dealership is speaking with their rep about this now. I just can’t fathom that my truck is ready and waiting when I live within hours of Dearborn.
 
Flying out tomorrow to pick up the truck. Looks like we won’t be there at the same time @Bannerman
Fingers crossed for no cancelled flights.
 
I just wanted to post an update (to an earlier post) on my Granger Tremor that was damaged during transit. Chip sent the pictures of the VERY small paint damage that required the repair people to remove the passenger front door. While Granger was able to align the 360 camera for delivery (meaning everything worked when I picked it up) a few days later it lost its alignment. In addition, I noticed the passenger front door didn’t close as easily as the other doors and was slightly out of alignment. My local Ford dealer couldn’t (or wouldn’t) fix the door and said I needed to take it to a dealership with an associated body shop. Chip immediately told me to go get it fixed and Granger would pay for any costs should they arise.
I was able to take it to Bell Ford in Phoenix where the body shop put the door on perfectly and the dealership had no problem aligning the 360 degree camera(all under warranty). All systems are working and I’m a happy camper! So even 1200 miles away, Granger took care of their customer!
I love my Tremor!
 
Let us know how many Tremors are in the lot!
Will do - I just saw that I'm listed as being on standby at my connection even though I bought the ticket a week ago and there were plenty of seats. Called the Delta help line and they say "you definitely aren't on standby but I cant assign you a seat". I'm about 60% confident I'll make it there before close.

Update! It magically arrived at the dealership today, way ahead of the latest ETA of late July!

So did it ever give you a shipped notification?
