That's crazy fast for a factory order, 10 days, least from my experience. I placed my order yesterday and was told six to eight weeks.

Cool

Try 15 weeks! . I ordered my Lariat on Oct. 7th. 2010 and took delivery on Jan 21rst. 2011. I was originally told 6-8weeks at the time. It was more than worth the wait. But I gotta tell ya, 10 days or 15 weeks, it's a hell of a wait . Hope you can take it

Did yours get caught over a period when the plant was idle, model year change over, or something? There must be a fundamental reason for a 15 week order fulfillment.

Sounds like a nice truck. Hope it arrives early.

BTW, not many women understand a man, and his truck. Mine does, thank the Lord.......

I did not order mine. I searched and waited. When I finally found and bought mine, my co-workers and friends were like "Thank God, now will you shut up?". LOL...

Same boat, mine even calls out the different option packages now when she sees them on the road. I am working on convincing her she needs a EB FX2 Screw in silver!

You should talk to the two groups I manage in my office, they avoid vehicle talk around me anymore!

Congrats Nuke, look forward to seeing pics!

lol. Yeah same here.

Thanks for the responses! I will post photos just as soon as I get it! I am probably going to keep it factory issue for a bit before I change the tires and level it, assuming I still want to after i get it.

The waiting is always a killer but I knew going into it that it would be a 6-8 week lead. That's ok. It got me out of our extended New England winter. I'd rather the new truck have it's first miles in spring!
