It's the first model year. Word is there's cool stuff being added for 2020.

At first I was disappointed too but once I saw the scope of the retooling project here at the plant I understood why the first model year seems a little lacking on options.

Damn it! Wish we knew what/if anything cool is being added.
I have one on order. I chose everything i wanted. There wasnt an option that I wanted and couldn't get.

Can't image Ford adding anything that is a must have for me.

Ok, MAYBE a heated steering wheel. But not a must have.

I bet tailgate damper is added, but that is a worthless gadget IMO. And maybe a sun roof, but I wouldn't add one on my truck.

Me too - all I wanted that I couldn't get wasn't because it wasn't available...I would have liked the B/O audio but I did not want a CrewCab so couldn't get it. More HP is about all that would interest me. My delivery date just moved up a week - still in order processing however - I'd ask me salesman about it but through this Forum I almost always know more about almost everything than he does :)

Worst case is they'd be like toyota and make you take the sunroof in the high trim models even if you don't want it.
We had a sunroof on our Explorer and never used it. I had one on my Honda and never used it. We have the "panoramic roof" (or whatever they call it - basically a glass roof) on our C-Max and keep the cover closed (otherwise it gets too hot). For me, they sound neat and cool, but I just never use them. To me, they are kind of a waste of money. If I didn't have A/C, they would be useful - I have one on my Capri, and use it all the time - it helps vent the hot air out of the cabin.

I'd prefer they focus on other more useful features and improving mileage.

I hate them because 1) they reduce headroom 2) they are a potential source of expensive repairs 3) if the cover isn't closed I get an uncomfortable glare at the top of my vision. I suppose for a short person #1 & #3 aren't an issue, but #2 really sucks if you didn't want the stupid sunroof in the first place. In this neck of the woods there's only a week in the spring and a week in the fall where it's really comfortable without A/C, the rest of the time there's either too much pollen or too much humidity to enjoy the windows being open.

The only thing I like about the sunroof is the moonroof glass effect. Adds light and makes the interior seem bigger but I don't miss one.
However, only a nice feature about half the year because the sun is too strong and causes extra heat.
I never opened a sunroof or even windows. I set the climate control at 71-72 and leave it. I don't like the noise from open windows and sunroof.
I enjoy quiet and listening to the sound system.

Very unlikely since production starts in November, but orders don't ship until Ok to Buy has been achieved.

Alright, It's 8/12, but I'm not seeing an order guide up anywhere. Anyone have any leads?

All quiet here in SoCal.
I have a salesman here as anxious as we are. So far he has heard nothing yet as of 1pm SoCal time

You should be able to order now and change it later. It can be changed up until a VIN is assigned.
