Finally picked up my Lariat 2.7

[Jackman]

I got tired of waiting for a build date from my local dealer for a May order and found what I wanted using the Ford website. It had everything except the side step and was cheaper than my dealer. It was listed as in transit and came in about a week later.

I have to say it is everything I hoped for and more. Great ride and power. Feels like a much heavier truck. Features including parking assist and advanced towing are just icing on the cake!

Congrats! It is a very nice truck. Mine in transit as well, should be at the dealer anytime between now and Monday. Azure Gray Lariat 2.7.

Really nice truck!
‘That’s exactly what I was looking for a few months ago, but the build dates were way out, and I ended up finding a RR within a few hours drive, so I snapped that one up. I agree that the new truck seems much heavier, and not as nimble as my 2019 Lariat FX4 Sport. I have found that the bigger engine in the RR makes up for a lot of that feeling, and I’m hoping that the Ford Performance tuner (being installed as I type this) will really make the RR even quicker than my old truck.

How much did you pay for the tune and where did you buy it, also how much was the cost of the tune installation?

Lol, it’s been a very long wait. I understand some folks have had even longer waiting time. Built on 08-23, Shipped 09/05 and still waiting.

Congrats on your new truck. I felt that way when I got mine. 2024 Ranger XLT FX4 4X4 cactus grey, all the bells and whistles but with 3.2 ecoboost engine. Let us know what your mpg turns out to be. Your gonna love your truck. Still puts a smile on my face when I drive it.

I've been part of the Ford family for the best part of 50 years, but you really tested me on this one!

I bought the Ford factory tuner from Lethal Performance during a sale they were having for $675 delivered, and paid my local dealership another $282 for the installation. I’m very pleased with the result. The added horsepower, and especially the added torque make this truck pull hard all the way to the limiter. I think there’s an even bigger difference in the transmission shift schedule. The transmission seems to be just as quick on the shifts, but much smoother.

Thanks for the information, I hope you continue to enjoy your new truck. Keep us posted on the performance of the tune. I’m just waiting to see how every one rates the tune before I invest a $1000 in it.

First trip from CT to ME, about 350 miles. Drove great and had lots of fun playing with the tech. I averaged about 70 mph and got 21.2 mpg. I'm happy with that.
