So, it seems they can't find my truck. Really! Maybe it's on a container ship to Nairobi. ?

Thank you gentlemen, but I DID sign the papers. I ordered on 10/1/18 and applied for loan same day. Loan approval expired in 45 days, so I signed all the paperwork 11/12, just before expiration because I was too lazy to reapply for loan. The dealership has been paid and my first payment looms shortly. To make matters worse, I traded my pristine low mileage 2015 SD on the same day, and it's since been sold. I bought a winter beater, 07 Ford XL (Tennessee truck, no rust) with 215,000 miles on it for cheap. Heck, it has rollup windows. That's what I'm driving now.
What really bugs me is that the new truck is probably sitting out under the stars exposed to rain, snow, condensation, bird crap and whatever. We all know letting a vehicle sit for too long is not good. The batteries lose charge, the finish fades and such. I garage my vehicles, so the thought of it sitting out with no love makes me cringe.
Ford really needs to take a look at their vehicle logistics.

Just chatted with Ford customer service and they tell me my truck is still sitting at KTP awaiting shipment. This is outrageous. No excuse in the world for it to sit for over 60 days.
I will seek legal advice on Monday to see if I can back out and buy another similar truck in my region.

Mine was May 9 to Aug 27, but that included the model year change and dealer ordering previous year when it should have been obvious that only 2019 order was possible. My build was Aug 3, so it took over 3 weeks to arrive in rural New Mexico. Dealer needs to be super prodded to get with regional manager and track it down on their computer system.
"super prodded" is code for what?! ?

So, I ordered Super Duty 10/1/18. To this date, no truck. NOBODY knows where it is, or at least they won't give me a straight answer. Ford tracking and Palsapp are useless, as is Ford customer service and my dealer. I know these things take time so I'm not sure at what point I should start seeking answers, as in seeking legal advice, filing complaints, etc.
So, how long is too long?
Thanks.

I believe it was New Prague Ford...BTW, in further negotiations with Jones Ford, they matched that price.
Thank you.

My dad had a 65' when I was real young.
Hope you love your new F350. You'll have to do a comparison post of that and your current one.
I sure will, if I ever get it. ?

Yes, he tried Sanderson. Also Berge (where his employer buys all their company vehicles), Jones (our family has bought nine new vehicles there). They all wanted to deal on in-stock trucks and at well above MSRP. The prize went to Rodeo Ford (Earnhardt)...they were asking $25K over MSRP (on an order no less).
My other son is shopping for a new (loaded) Super Duty diesel. His best price was at a dealer in Minnesota...another long winter drive if he were to buy it there; but their offer started well below "invoice."
If it doesn't violate any rules, care to reveal what Minnesota dealer that was?

Oh man, I wish they would have fly and drive. I love a good road trip. No (good) reason to build the truck and then have it sit for 60 days at the factory parking lot. I cringe at the thought of my new truck sitting out under the stars exposed to the elements, bird crap and whatever. My trucks are babied and garaged.

And who are you to say it's foolish? It was just a matter of convenience. Sure, NOW it seems foolish, I'll give you that. And, I guarantee you I'll never do that again. ?
