I expect a key for a 70 thousand dollar truck to at least feel solid...

The stock 17 key feels hollow and starts to creak.

You need to temper your expectations. And maybe start a company so you can deal with customers like you.

Wait till the second half of 2018 when they have the V8 option

I'd be more willing to trade in my truck for the key than the v8. I love this v6tt so far. 17 MPG!@!!!! average!!! more power than any other truck i've ever owned

I don't want to pop your bubble, and I hope I'm wrong, but if your dealer only has 2 allocations, I believe I was told that those 2 allocations are spread out over a year. So that would be one allocation every six months. The dealer I ordered through allegedly has 18 allocations, so that is one roughly every 3 weeks or so. I believe my order is 9th, but I have CF and BL, so I'm pretty much betting on my order being delayed.

I believe you are correct. The only time this would not be a negative is if the dealer did not place orders for those allocations incrementally through the year and built up. This would then allow them to place consecutive orders and would be able to receive the truck much faster or in a shorter period of time. That's what happened to me. My dealer had 15 allocations but had only ordered 4 by March. They essentially placed several last minute orders on May 15....
I ordered my truck March 18 and took delivery May 16

Oh man, Ford is missing a bet with these millennials.
They have the luxury option, the navigation option, the towing/hauling option, color and trim options, wheel options...
BUT NO KEYFOB OPTION!
There's millions, I said MILLIONS, to be made here!!!

Well I've been looking to keep a 3rd key in my office. Once a part number comes out for this I'm gonna go ahead and pull the trigger on one and hopefully I can program it on my 2017. Or maybe I'll just stop by the dealer next week sometime.

Does anybody have a link to a 2017 programming procedure? Aside from the key cutting, is this something that can be done on your own without dealer assistance?
