Hi Cobber,
Did you know that Gus received their first unit yesterday, a black beadlock beauty? This is why they (sales guy and management) continue to tell me that there is no restriction, no constraint, on the forged wheels.

Congrats. I believe all the bed covers are installed at the dealer.

I know, but the cover didn't arrive with the truck.

Almost bought a black screw today at Crown Ford in Fayetteville, NC. Apparently someone drove down from NoVA and is offering more than what I was (willing to pay the 10k over sticker). The wait was killing me and I almost negotiated it to the price that I wanted...Dealer kept telling me the 10k was Ford mandated (that was a fun hour-long argument) and that the next production year is 2-3 years away.

Tried to get one at Crossroads Sanford, NC, but someone drove down and bought it for 10k over sticker also (blue screw).

1st order was placed 21OCT, built 17DEC, ETA ~05JAN. Dealer sold it to someone else at $5k over since our original deal was only for MSRP. (It had beadlocks)

2nd order was placed 14NOV, no DORA yet...(no word on beadlocks yet).

I believe it is sent by UPS to the dealer. It should show up soon after the truck arrives at the dealer.

I have forwarded email from regional rep saying there was a constraint at least for next round of builds. It was not specific on amount of delay.

Well, we're in very different regions, so here's hoping West Coast is a different situation.

I just don't understand how a company as large as ford, who surely chooses suppliers who can pump out parts in bulk, cannot ramp up production if they didn't guess enough CF builds.... in the over 5 months since placing my order. Same for the BL peeps.

Mine was built Nov. 12th, and same issue, still waiting... I was told it was on a rail car headed this way, but not sure where or how much longer either...

Same scenario here in Charleston, SC. Hope all this runaround is worth it.

It's on the way

Ordered mine July 28th from a little dealer finally got built January 20th all options including carbon fiber and beadlocks was shocked last Thursday when I called and they said it was already in Battle Creek Michigan on the rails heading to Montana with a delivery date of the 9th.. good luck to y'all
