The refreshed 2022 Ford Super Duty was revealed back in early March with some new interior and exterior color options, upgraded tech features, and the addition of some new and revised appearance packages. Now, Ford Authority has learned from sources familiar with Ford’s product plans that 2022 Ford Super Duty production is scheduled to begin in July.
2021 Ford Super Duty production will end at the Ford Kentucky Truck Plant on July 8th, 2021, and the Ford Ohio Assembly Plant on July 21st, 2021. Order banks for the 2022 model opened up back on March 15th, and 2022 Ford Super Duty production is currently scheduled to begin at the Kentucky Truck Plant on July 9th, 2021, and at the Ohio Assembly Plant on July 22th, 2021.
However, it is worth noting that the ongoing semiconductor chip shortage may very well change these plans or disrupt production altogether. 2021 Super Duty production has been severely impacted by the shortage, leading Ford to stash thousands of unfinished models near the Kentucky Truck Plant in recent weeks.
Regardless, when it does launch, the 2022 Super Duty will sport a new 12-inch infotainment screen that’s similar to the one in the 2021 Ford F-150. The new screen is standard equipment on Lariat, King Ranch, Platinum, and Limited trims and features Ford’s SYNC 4 software with wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto compatibility, and SYNC AppLink apps. XL series 2022 Super Duty models come equipped with a 4.2-inch screen, while XLT trims come with an 8-inch touchscreen as standard equipment.
On the outside, Ford has added one new exterior color – Atlas Blue – and three new interior color schemes – Baja for Lariat-trimmed trucks, and Navy Pier and Light Slate for Limited trims. The Black Appearance Package is now available on XLT models and includes 20-inch Ebony Black-painted premium wheels, body-color front and rear bumpers, grille bars, six-inch Ebony Black running boards, and front and rear black Blue Ovals.
The 2022 Super Duty is also available with a new Lariat Sport Appearance Package that includes body-color bumpers, exterior mirrors, and grille, as well as a chrome exhaust tip and black platform running boards.

WHAT ABOUT THE EXPIDITION PRODUCTION?
The SD is one good looking truck!
You bet, so much better looking then those weird things GM created
More information on the new electric pickup i.e. how much money!
Is the Black Appearance Package being eliminated from the Lariat? Or, just available on the XLT as well as the Lariat?
I believe the new 'sport appearance package' will be body colour grille and mirror caps instead of black but the black 20" wheels and emblems will remain.
F250 built 4 21 21 and ford can't answer why trucks built after are showing up at dealers as inventory. Please explain Ford.
I still have no truck! Ordered my 2021 F250 XLT on March 2, 2021, got the VIN with April 21 on the window sticker. Stays page indicates in production May10. Then crickets… delivery date was May 29, then June29, now October 31. Really poor customer service from Ford. I really wish would just go ahead tell me that they have no clue when I will get the truck. At least tell me something!! I’m looking at a Ram 2500 this weekend, at least they have some trucks on the lots, and not a parking lot in Kentucky where my truck is parked. I should probably just cancel the order and try again for a 2022. My truck will be 1-year old before it is ever delivered.
So agree with you. Horrible customer service.call ford they say call dealer call dealer they say call ford. Do they even care. Ford family my butt.
So, my 2021 F-250 XLT Race Red finally arrived on July 29th and I took delivery on July 31st. The Ford tracking site indicated delivery the week of August 1st - 7th and the site went from “shipped” to delivery within about 1-week. Truck sat in Kentucky since late April or early May. Door frame sticker indicates April 21.
As a result of sitting at the Kentucky Motor Speedway and not being sheltered or protected from the weather I had to spend 2-days deep cleaning the entire vehicle. Not just a typical dealership wash and shine the tires. I had to wash multiple times, clay bar the entire truck, polish remaining water spots, polish water spots off all glass, apply ceramic paint coating, and now it looks like a new truck. People that purchase black, red, or other darker colors will likely need to do the same. White and lighter colors do not show the imperfections as much, they are still there just not as noticeable.
Do I like the truck, yes. Would I do it again, yes. I just really wish Ford would have been honest with their customers and managed expectations better. Communication and transparency goes a long way.
Just ordered my 22 f250 lariat. Dealership says about 10-12 weeks. The 22’s won’t start being built until mid July.
I think they are being a little optimistic with 10 - 12 weeks, I think it will be more like 6 to 8 months.
Just ordered a 2022 F250 Lariat Sport/Tremor Package 4x4 June 25th. I was told it still hasn’t even been processed yet.
My salesman text me this when I ask the status and how it works..
The order will go in to an order bank. As soon as we can get an allocation for it, your x-plan order will get pulled by Ford, and the order will be sent to the plant. Once that happens, it usually takes a week or so before it is assigned a vin number. Once it has one, I will send you the vin, order number, and link to the Order Tracking website. That will allow you to track it like a FedEx package. It will be sent to one of two holding yards by train. One is in New Orleans and one is in Jackson. From there it will get loaded on a truck and dropped off to us.
The majority of the time involved in the process is spent shipping the truck and waiting for the order to get pulled.
Not sure if anyone has heard similar things… But seems like it might be a while???
That's funny
I ordered my new 2022 F350 Superduty with the Tremor package on May 26th. Ford picked up the order the week after the dealer submitted the order. I had a VIN number in less than 2 weeks. There isn't much point to tracking since its really a slow process. Once they receive the order that's all it shows until the actual production begins. My truck is scheduled to be built on 7/20/2021. From there it will go to a rail yard and get shipped. My guy at the dealership said that total transit time should be 3 weeks. Ford dealers and the manufacturing plants are prioritizing pre-sold retail units over dealer stock. I have faith that it will be here the middle of August.
