My 05 GT is #5 on the list of IUP delayed cars at my dealer. I stopped in today, and #1 has a build date of March 06. #2 was at some state other than "nothing". He's thinking mine will be in March as well.

Why is it taking so long? Special order?
They are at every dealership you pass out here in teh sticks even.
Yeah, with the Interior Upgrade Package that had the part shortage. Me an 26 others at this dealer alone.
I'd wager good money very few have the IUP. The dealers here have more, too, but they seem to be all V6.
I think the Interior Upgrade Package with the "My Colors" is the, or was the slow down because of a law suit over the color system.
Oh, I am sure that you are absolutely right. I have only seen one so far with the brushed metal finish on the steering wheel.
Hope you ger her soon!
Lawsuit over the color system?

Hard to say. The radio ads here specifically specifically touted the My Colors last month. Ford didn't seem too concerned about that.
It's the lack of info that's frustrating. I'm trying to find Bill Ford's email. I want him to know that I *was* going to go all Ford and replace my aging Dodge Ram with an F-150, but Ford's lack of information on all this has me pissed off and I'm looking at Sierras and Rumble Bees again. I mean, even my dealer wasn't getting a lot of info.
Or I may just wait and see if Jeep goes and brings the Gladiator concept to production.
Hey! I saw a Rumble Bee the other day! On the back of a tow truck.
Not bent, must have been broken.
no joke..
Doesn't all the plastic fakie stuff on thos kinda give you the heebie jeebies? I mean, after you get over the first impression and start REALLY looking at them?

All that fake stuff on them makes them look like a huge toy. My truck parked next ton one looks tiny. My truck also has wiped the shit eating grill off of one or two ;) I still love my 10 year old, 165,000 mile, almost stock F150! It's for sale though because I love my girlfriend more :) Erik D.

Umm... How is that you are choosing between a vehicle and a girlfriend?

Coming home one day last summer in the Cobra with the top down. Some moron in a new SRT-10 (still had dealer plates) pulls up next to me and hollers 'let's race!' This is in the middle of heavy commute traffic on the 580! Waved him on and turned up the radio. He proceeded to race anyway. Couple days later I see him again, this time he's on the uphill side of the Altamont with the hood up and steam pouring out. LMAO! Never saw that truck again...

Hey Kate. I am not really choosing between a vehicle and a girlfriend. I am just at a point in my life where I don't really need my truck. I am looking for a house, and an expensive piece of jewelry for my girlfriend at the same time, and my truck just sits in the driveway. It would be a different story if I didn't have a girlfriend that I really loved. I'd be happy to leach off of the parents for longer, but the time has come for me to get out of here. If I drove the truck more often it would be harder to get rid of it, but in the past four months I drove the truck once. The one time I drove it, it got rear ended. So now its in my driveway wounded, lol. With the money I get for my truck, I could have a pretty decent beginning of a downpayment for a house, so thats why I am selling it. I am hoping the price on them stays low, because in a few years when I get settled and actually have some money, i'd love to get another one. Erik D. '94 white lightning '01 white GT
Once you by house, you'll find you need the truck at least once every couple weeks..
Chuck
Thats what friends and family are for ;) Erik D. '94 white lightning '01 white GT
At LEAST! Probabaly allot more.
Wish you the best Erik! Sounds to me like you are making a fairly logical decision.
