We drove 6 hours to get the truck from NC to KY so I'm back home now and it already has 400mi on it. On the way home (mostly highway as you'd imagine) I averaged 26.5mpg. Not bad. Its a 4WD XLT.
I like the truck pretty well so far. I did notice the left side of the tailgate is WAY off, like...
I think everybody missed my last post on p.82 (sucks being the last post!) but it looks like dealership A will give me my $1k deposit back so I can purchase from dealer B (6 hour drive away) to get that sweet MSRP. The good news is dealership B doesn't charge any BS fees or doc fees or anything...
I found a better deal at a different dealership so I went to cancel my refundable $1000 deposit and the dealer told me nope, cant give you your money back until we sell the truck (that hasnt come in yet) to someone else. I about hit the freaking fan. After a little legal threatening he said I...
What dealership accepted your X plan? I havent been able to find any? Did you have a trade? Msg me if you want, I have some questions because my deal wasnt NEARLY that good.

Do we have any pictures of the conditions our trucks are waiting in outside the factory? I'd be very interested to see this. I hear of Rangers finally arriving, covered in layers of dirt but all I can find is nice paved parking lots for the Broncos that end up waiting as well.
edit: to clarify...
Did the dealer make it look like new? Did you actually see it arrive? How did you know about all the dirt? Good idea on the rodent damage. I'll do the same.
I don't know if I have the right to be in here.
There is a '22 XLT Crewcab XLT silver sport pkg 4WD that I have placed a deposit on and it is due to be delivered to the dealer this week sometime, according to the dealer. I have agreed to an OTD price and like I said, make the $1k refundable...
Apparently my truck was built on March 17th and has been waiting around ever since. Its been shipped but hasnt arrived at the dealer yet and it seems to have the ASS. So, I hope it doesnt hurt the truck too much that it just sat there for a couple months.
