'17 Superduty who gets one first.
 
We should start a pool..Who gets delivery first. It would be interesting if a west coast guy (like me) got the call from the dealer to come pick it up before mich (locals)........

My dealer sez he found a vin 4 1???? Who knows????

indysupra 07-29-2016 05:53 PM

They are so freaking behind on this one. They just opened the order bank about a week ago so my projection is close to October.

indysupra 07-29-2016 05:55 PM

There has been a lot of speculation on why it's been running behind. I'm fairly certain it's because of all the 2016 super duties that are still around. They would be sitting on a bunch of expensive trucks For a while.

fossil fuel 07-29-2016 07:54 PM

I ordered mine on 5-11 It was slated to be built on 7/11. It should be done waiting for engineering to release the first group...
2017 F-250 crew long bed

indysupra 07-29-2016 08:46 PM

So did the dealer give you a vin and a ship date if the start build date was three weeks ago?

Stuckonstupid 07-30-2016 06:52 AM

I ordered mine on 6-20, Platinum srw long bed and just got the option to choose the color last week. Still no vin and projected ship date late September.

Think they R gunna end up discounting the 16's big X 2 get rid of'm!! Prolly gunna B a good buy 4 somebody that doesn't care about the new model!! Personally I have a friend that I end up w/ friends/family discount! I think it's the X plan?? Hey, better than a kick in the arse!!! Had a buddy last year from Michigan that bought a 250 loaded up from Wisconsin, got a killer leftover deal!! way below the X plan straight from the dealer! Reason I like the 17 is the heavier components(go'n from a 450 2 a single wheel 350)flat rear floor area 4 my 2 dogs instead of the current molded storage tray taking up a bunch of floor room, camera technology, etc!! The new body 2 me means nut'n!!!

fossil fuel 07-30-2016 09:10 AM

I had a vin a few weeks after it was ordered. The production was to be the week of 7-11. So we will see??

hotrodford 07-30-2016 11:13 AM

new body like a f150 half ton cab lol

indysupra 07-30-2016 11:54 AM

Thats good you have a vin, that does mean the order banks are open for you guys but I would not expect that it is in production yet. I looked today at work and im fairly certian we wont see any until october. They usually wont have the dates for the different zones that far apart. People buy them out of state and then try and have them worked on in there home town and it causes problems if another dealer does not have any service data or support.

fossil fuel 08-28-2016 09:13 AM

Supposed to be at the dealer here in Encinitas, CA on the 13 Sept.......we will see....

boatfreak 08-28-2016 10:39 AM

I just saw a new one sitting on the lot at a dealer in Mooresville In.

SLOWRIDE-388 08-28-2016 09:14 PM

Saw one in Springfield IL on the lot. A nice black one

44MTI 08-28-2016 10:18 PM

Noticed new white one dealer here in Tulsa last Friday

TxHawk 08-29-2016 11:50 AM

Good friend of mine is taking delivery this week or next of a hard loaded '17 F-450 Platinum. Black/Black. He only has 10,000 miles on an identical 2013 that has lived in a showroom. Not sure which he is going to keep yet. Maybe a deal for someone looking for one quick.

boatfreak 08-29-2016 09:06 PM

The one I saw on the lot is the same color and basic setup as my 16 that I got just a couple weeks ago and just judging by first impressions I'm sure glad I got a 16.

indysupra 08-29-2016 09:27 PM

We have a gas one but the diesels are not out yet.

Car Biz 08-30-2016 07:47 AM

We have about 7 in stock right now. Some work trucks and a couple Lariet crew cabs. I drove one this past weekend TONS of power and quiet as a mouse inside. My daughter is 6yrs old and can stand on the floor and her head does not touch the roof!!!! they are tall inside and outside. Not to mention the short box crew wheelbase is 160 now not 156 it is longer as well. I loved the truck BUT I would not want to drive it around town everyday!

Why do you say that? I'm not happy about the aluminum that's in the 2017s.
But I think the interior is a HUGE improvement over the 2016s.

I do like the front end design of the 2016 better as well, but the 2017 will grow on me after some of the custom companies catch up with grilles and bumpers.

Is the CC/LB model longer as well?

Yes I believe it is 176 up from 172 on a longbox. Folks are going to be surprised how big these things are.

I agree with ya on the Dodge look but this one i think they went backwards on!....to me it looks like they took the square style fender of the 80's trucks and slapped a fender flare on it...they could have done better.....

I agree. I hate the 2017 Ford dually fender. I'm partial to my early 2000s look, but I eventually came around the the "fender flare" look of the 2011 models. At least it matched the front fender in design. But this looks terrible.


If I get a new truck, I'm not getting a DRW anyhow. :hitfan:

F-2 Speedy 08-30-2016 12:28 PM

the front fenders look to be all one piece, no bolt on flair

Vanity plate for the new truck will be "HYPOCRT".

ROB FREEMAN 08-30-2016 06:32 PM

I think the front clip looks snubby. Short. Compared to the rest of the truck. Rear fender on the dully has me wondering myself. Watts auto in Utah. Hunting me down a white dually and then do a full lift and forces. On it. See if I want to trade my 16 Denali dually for it. Mine is badass. Hard to yrade it. With only 2600 miles on the clock. Also lifted on forces. Going to be tuff decision for me. 😩😩😩

My buddy works at a local Ford dealer in S. Florida and they just got their first F250 crew cab yesterday. I saw a pic but he didn't mention if it was gas or diesel.

Jupiter Sunsation 09-03-2016 10:10 AM

This is another local store.......they show 8 in stock and they are discounting them!

That truck looks awesome! I'm liking the new body style, very sleek, it's not as overbearing as the previous.
