2000intow Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 (edited) I know were still living in "covid times" but good grief trying to find a new 4wd wrecker is a total nightmare still!

Derlyn Z Posted October 6, 2022 Share Posted October 6, 2022 Not Us. We had a KW rollback on order for over a year now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2000intow Posted October 6, 2022 Author Share Posted October 6, 2022 Seems like that's a common trend from what I see and hear Derlyn... I found a decent used 2019 f550, 142K on it $95k and its as is. Hopefully your truck is delivered soon, KW and Petes are my favorite chassis.

EdsTowing Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 I ordered 2 new Fords last September, a F600 for a carrier and a F550 for a wrecker. The F550 got canceled by Ford in April with little information other then it had options that they couldn't fill at this time. Then in May, my 600 arrived at the dealer so I was happy about that...but not for long. I sold my 550 carrier on here like in a day or so and then found out that my body wouldn't be available till August or September. Frustrated but we said we would make due without it for the summer. Then we were told it would be done by October 1st...didn't happen. And now it's unclear of the delivery but could be a few months! So now it looks like we are going to buy a new Dodge for a temporary "fix" to the problem until my body comes in. My dealer told me he will give us our money back for the truck if we trade it when the new one is completed so it helps that it won't be too much of a financial burden. It's just nuts how the market is right now...and looks like it will be well within 2024 till things get straitened out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derlyn Z Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 We just heard from the dealer where we are getting it built, and they said they should be taking delivery of the truck here in a couple of weeks. And then it will take a little for them to put it together, they told us we should have it before the end of the year. But, we shall see..........
