I ordered a 2022 F-350 September 9th 2021 and got it November 24th 2021. Right at 11 weeks. Not bad. Always order my trucks and in the past it always took 8 weeks.
I'm 53, graduated from college 30 years ago and still have them, although less often the past 5 years. I figured it is indicative of the stress that college caused.
Ordered a 2022 F-350 in October for under MSRP plus 2K loyalty coupon. Got a great price for my trade also. Should get it next week.
I might get one for a knock around truck. My F-350 is really only good for towing and nothing else. I would rather buy a cheap new truck than an overpriced high miles used one to knock around in.
Dipped Copenhagen original off and on for 40 years. I've been dipping Bacc-off fine cut wintergreen and original for a few months. It's ok for me.
If payload is important to you, better make sure you look at the yellow door sticker. Even F250 / 2500 series trucks can have a very low payload depending on how equipped. I just traded a 2018 F-250 for a 1 ton because of extremely low payload numbers. Yellow door sticker said 2095 lbs. After weighing the truck the real number was 1890 lbs and that is before any passengers which are included in payload.

I use concrete parking blocks. About 250+ pounds so they don't move.

re: Harley Davidson - Who rides one

Only owned metric bikes but seriously considering the Harley Pan America. Currently have several bikes, but main ride is a Honda Africa Twin.

Very nice bike you have.

For the risk adverse, I think I reduce my risk to tolerable levels by riding with full gear, never riding at night, never drinking and riding, giving up my right a way, avoiding excessive speed, and avoiding interstates.

Don't get a F-250 with a diesel engine. I did not realize that when I went from a F-350 DRW to a F-250 that the payload capacity was so low (almost F-150 low). Mine has a 2080 lb capacity and the headlights shine in the air with that. Get F-350 SRW minimum if you are going to use it.

I have used these people in that past.

I have a 24X24 insulated garage, but the doors are not insulated. My 15,000 btu window unit cools it down to the low 70's on the hottest days. I turn it on the night before I need it cooled.

Hokus Pokus Liquor store on Country Club Road in Lake Charles should sell you one. They were $55 2 years ago.
Get a 3 year membership to Tread Lightly (less than $60)and you are eligible for the Chrysler/Jeep affiliate rewards program. This gets you any Jeep for 1% under invoice with no haggle. This saved me about $2500 off sticker. You have to be a member for 30 days to get a PIN.
