I got SCREW'ed!!
 
I have a brand new 07 Screw with a pick up date of 2 May.........

Just found out I got extended over here in Iraq, sure you guys heard about the 15 month tour extensions. Well they got me............. Won't even see my truck before September!!! I'm pissed!

Can't you get the dealer to let you out of it considering the circumstances? Sorry to hear about your extension, and thank you for serving your country.:beers: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Yeah, I would definitely try to avoid having to buy it. I would think they would allow it, it's not like they can't sell the truck on the lot normally.

Thanks for your service, and sorry to hear about that extension! Best of luck and God speed :thumbsup:

Stay safe and thanks for your service. They should let you out of it if you don't want it.

Dang bro that sux...I am headed that way here soon, I am only on a 6 monther though...I feel for you guys!

I'm sure you can get out of this truck. Dealers only have heart burn when the end up with some oddball option combo. Your truck sounds like one that will roll off their lot with no extra effort on their part. They like that.... Besides, just tell them you'll be ordering one when you get back stateside.

Thanks for serving!!!

As for getting out of the truck.... I am based out of Germany, and bought the truck from a Overseas Military Sales Program, so i could not get out of it even if i wanted to. i still want the truck just dont want to wait till Sept. to see it.

It's been a while... back in basic (15 years and one ETS ago, yep, I'm out) they told us about a military perk where you could buy a future vehicle at the current prices... example: buy a '07 F150 for '05 prices (may or may not be the best deal going now-a-days). If I remember correctly, you started paying for it at the purchase time too. Is that what you did, or did I get thrashed by a Drill yet again?


For any Army 19Ds out there: SCOUTS OUT!!!
