Matty,

I agree totally, have them make it right, it's their fault... Are they letting you keep the other truck in the meantime?

I ordered my Screw the other day, and said to the salesman I'll wait while you send in the order, and then I want a copy. He says the owner does all the orders, and he's not here now. So I go in the next day, and the owner tells me he hasn't ordered it yet, but not to worry, he's been doing this a long time, and knows what he is doing..!? So I say, better to rectify any mistakes now, as opposed to 2 months from now when it comes in wrong. And still waiting for my copy of the order.

Then I read Matty's post.

2004 F-150 LARIAT, SUPER CAB, 4x4, 6 1/2' BED
All Standard equipment, plus:
- Two-Tone paint - Black w/Arizona Beige paint, w/Tan leather interior
- Reverse sensing system
- Trailer tow package
- Black platform running boards
- 35.7 gallon fuel tank
- 3.73 Limited slip axle

Well, guess what? I ran your options and the dealer that I bought my FX4 from has your exact truck sitting on their lot not 15 miles from my house.

I added the Audiophile because you may not know it, but you do want it.

The link doesn't work (it times out) but if you want I'll email you the window sticker.

Oh yeah, according to Ford you cannot order the black tubular boards on a black Lariat. Cnrome only.

I got bored and ran a search for you for the North Atlanta area.

I found some damn good looking trucks but not exactly what you want.

You said black interior...want leather or cloth? 40/20/40 or captains chairs?
Rear end preference? 3.55 or 3.73?
5.4 or 4.6?
LS?
Power sliding rear window?
Running boards/Step bars?

Truck #1
Last 4 of VIN 7415
White/Grey
Has black cloth 40/20/40
Has tow pkg
Has 18"
No Rev Sens
No roof
6 disc in dash-No Audiophile

Truck #2
Last 4 of VIN 7882
White/Grey
Has black leather capt chairs
Has tow pkg
Has 18"
No Rev Sens
No roof
6 disc in dash-No Audiophile

Truck #3
Last 4 of VIN 6430
White/Grey
Has black cloth Capt Chairs
Has tow pkg
Has 18"
Has moonroof
No Rev Sens
AM/FM Stereo with single CD-No Audiophile

Truck #4
Last 4 of VIN 2501
White/Grey
Has black leather Capt Chairs
Has tow pkg
Has 18"
No roof
No Rev Sens
6 disc in dash CD/No Audiophile

Hope that helps. I will hang on to these for a couple of days if you want more info. I can fax them or give you the dealers info.

KEEP IN MIND THAT THE INTERNET IS NOT ALWAYS RIGHT...THE DEALERSHIP MAY/MAY NOT ACTUALLY HAVE THESE. I GOT THE INFO FROM www.forddirect.com.

Quick and to the point...

Captains Chairs are the individual seats (which you would get since you want the floor shifter) and the 40/20/40 split is almost like a bench seat, except the middle is stationary. The drivers seat and passengers seat move independantly of each other.

The 3.55 rear end or 3.73 rear end...the numbers refer to the amount of times the drive shaft rotates for each turn of the rear tires. A low # gives you lower RPM's at high speeds and you won't be as quick off the line. The higher number gives you more low end power.

5.4 is a bigger motor than the 4.6.

LS = Limited Slip. It makes the back wheels turn at the same time, it locks the rear differential.

Power sliding rear window...this is the window from the cab to the bed. You can get it one of 3 ways, stationary (one solid piece of glass and the only way to go if you want the rear defroster), manual, you would have to physically reach back and open it with your hand, or power, push a button and it opens.

Running boards/Step bars...I am assuming you know what those are.

Like I said, quick and to the point. I am sure some people will be more than happy to elaborate on any of the above issues.

Make sure you get what YOU want. The moonroof can be added aftermarket, so can something similar to the audiophile, but not nearly as cheap. I would bet that there are aftermarket reverse sensing systems too.
