Ordering an Ecoboost

What's the latest info on when one can order an F 150 with the Ecoboost?

The ordering "codes" were released to the dealerships about 3 weeks ago. I tried to get pricing from my local dealership around Thanksgiving, and they did not yet have the order codes from Ford in the computers.....about three weeks ago my Mrs. (she's the book keeper at our local dealership) came home with my quote.
I'm going to wait until the EB hits the lot, review the MPG, drive one, then make my final decision.....the MPG is really what's going to make up my mind.

That's where I'm at. If the eco doesn't come in with a high enough MPG to give a decent repayment time frame and reimbursement for taking the risk on the new engine and expected higher repair costs due to more things to fix (as it gets older) I'll buy the 5.0.

I'm with you two on when and why, if I even do, but I will keep my confidence level up and see what they deliver.

Super, did you have to pay any premiums? Do you have a deliver date?

Great plan, if you don't want the max tow pkg! They don't give us those options unless we want to spend more to get the 6.2L
