Me as well. I placed mine two weeks or so ago; 2015 F150 Lariat SuperCab, 502A, Green Gem, Tailgate Step. I was originally quoted 6-8 weeks; but I still don't have an order number so I can track it.

Low dealer stock?

Does anyone else notice a very low dealer stock in these trucks? I checked every dealership within 50 miles of me (like 15 dealerships) and there were only 2 lariat trims or higher on the lot. The other dealers that do have stock only have no more than 3 trucks and the highest trim level is XLTwith a very basic package. Maybe this is always the case but to me it seems pretty strange to not have a loaded model on the lot to really show it off. Also locally I haven't seen 1 2.7 Eco.

I happened to get lucky and the dealer I went to let me check his personal lariat out while they appraised my 09 Tacoma.

I have absolutely seen that here in N Florida. I ended up at three dealerships just so I could check out various options (I wanted to see a 4x2 SuperCab Lariat with a bench seat and the 501A, a 4x2 Supercab Lariat with the 502A and one with the Technology package). Some dealerships have no 2015's at all. There do seem to be a lot of 2014's though.

The '15s aren't in full production yet as KCAP is not up to speed yet. They should be ramping up in the next month. Plus, the trucks are selling at a record pace, so the ones that do come in are gone in a week or so. Once KCAP is up and running at full capacity, supply should be much better.

6 trucks 5 XLT's, 1 xl my point exactly. At least they have a variety of engines to choose from. Point I was attempting to make is the dealers with inventory have XLT's or lower. I've seen 2 lariats, zero plats or KR's, and live in the chicago land area. Much more inventory gets moved from my part of the country so you think they would have better varity.

Good luck man! Congrats on the build but you will be waiting for 3-4 months before you see it. I submitted my order on 12/23, it's not even scheduled to be built until the end of the month. My expected delivery should be the end of April...so they say. I am thinking I will be lucky to see it by May.

Hi Local niner, Have you seen the factory tow mirrors in person. Is the BLIS system and 360 camera functional on the tow mirrors. Just want to be sure before I order. Don't want any suprises. I know the technology package is needed for the 360.
Thanks

Actually I haven’t see them in person. I had the same questions about the BLIS and 360 Camera with the tow mirrors. One thing I noticed when I placed the order is ford did not allow some options to be added that would conflict with other packages. An example is I tried to order Tri coat metallic paint with the lariat sport package and was denied. So I am under the assumption that these features would work with the tow mirror upgrade or the system would kick it back. But you know what happens when you assume so my dealer is looking into it, i’ll repost as soon as I get an answer.

Thanks for the reply. Going to place order tomorrow. I like to have all duck in row, and nothing left to chance. Hard to see in the brochure, but it looks like the blis indicators are there. Hope you have answer before I go. I did see a lariat for sale with tow mirrors and the pictures had the 360 functional. It was pictures of the actual vehicle. It this helps.
Thanks

By the sounds of that listing it seems that everything is included. I should have an answer this evening for sure.
