Just talked to my dealer. He said they are just waiting for it to be unloaded from the rail and that as soon as it is it will be taken straight to the dealership. Said I may get it tomorrow or Monday at the latest. I can't wait.

 

I know the feeling, as many of us do. Enjoy it.

don't see anything new

 

Well I picked up the truck on Tuesday. Thanks Setchan for all your hard work. I will post pics when i get the time.

I do have one question for you though. Apperently, Ford conducted a quality test of 75 miles at the factory. How common is this? I'm a little disappointed that it arrived with so many miles on it, but I guess it means its been looked over with a fine tooth comb and is less likely to have any problems down the road.

Thanks again.

 

Fist off, Congrats!
It's Normal to do random tests. I recently recommended that they exclude customer orders from this practice, since those vehicles are basically already owned by someone and are not for dealer stock.

What you might want to do is, Call ford customer service and complain about them driving YOUR truck out on the highway and putting 75 miles on it!

 

Well I finally got the chance to wash my new truck today so I snapped some pics after I was done. I spent yesterday getting Line X Xtra and a Retrax Pro cover installed.

Here you go:

 

She's looking good! Barely fits in the driveway.....no way it fits the garage, or?

 

If I really wanted to I could get it to fit in the garage just makes for a really tight fit. I'm having my driveway widened so that I can park it without any risk of the wife sideswipping it. Lost the mirror on my last car due to that.
