Well seeing I'm looking at replacing my exact truck I was quoted from Raceway Ford in Riverside. "It is 2-3 weeks but it could be in the range of 6-8 weeks."

I had mine by the end of the week of my Build date. Sounds like it's the exception rather than the norm.

Somewhere someone said......

Usually 1-2 days from start to finish. I think someone also said they are currently building at a rate of about 47 finished trucks per hour at the KC plant, thats almost 400 trucks per shift.
