I had placed an order on a F350 Tremor 11/30 of last year. 2 weeks ago I received a letter from Ford apologizing for the continued delay. Fortunately I had already bought back my old 2016 F350 this May after going all winter with only my Ford Ranger.

Decided that a paid off used low mile truck was better than waiting an eternity and still paying 20% over the real adjusted value.
Just got this email for the truck I canceled in March of this year…even tried lowering the trim level from Tremor to a plain Lariat to try and speed up the process before canceling it outright.

The interest is up and the stock market's down and your gona get mugged if you go downtown. Or, we're headed down hill like a snowball headed for hell. Either way, I'd wait, your going to save soon. That is if you don't have to finance it.

I recently spoke with a local dealership manager. He told me dealers are struggling to obtain any inventory and it's a seller's market. In other words, no discounts and no good deals. Many stores are pricing desirable units at above MSRP.

It's the worst time I recall ever seeing for buying cars, trucks, rv's, boats, ATV/UTVs, homes, appliances, basically everything.

Wait until Americans see their winter heating bills!
