This was in my mailbox today...1/24th scale die cast F-150 reg cab 4X4. It's from the Ford Insider Program. I didn't order it, it just came. Anyone else get a present?

+--Visit Cooltrucks.net--+

When passenger of foot heave in sight, tootle the horn. Trumpet him melodiously at first, but if he still obstacles your passage then tootle him with vigor.

+--1997 XLT 4x4, Manual with a V6!--+

 

What is the Ford insider Program and how can I get that truck. Too bad they don't have an ext cab red and gray one.

------------------
1997 F-150 Lariat
Ext Cab Short Box
4x4 Off Road Package
3.55 Gears
265/75 R16 Uniroyal Laredo M/Ts

My 2 cents worth

If you're gonna stroke it, POWERSTROKE IT!!!

 

I was wondering when they would start sending those out, that was the real reason I joined that program, then I looked at the site and it ain't bad.

 

Eph150...you can have it if you spring for the postage. Probably 4 or 5 bucks US. Let me know.
Also, Powerstroke73, go here to check out the Ford Insider site.

Has anyone that did not get the card in the mail been able to join the insider sight? I never got one, I guess Ford doesn't want me to be a part of it LOL. I should have been one of the first to be contacted after it took them 5 months to get my truck from Norfolk to NC.

Well, I bought my truck brand spanking new and haven't received any invites... Hmm.. guess I should have rated the dealership better than they really were! And the email on the site doesn't work either. I think it's a conspiracy! Oh my... Now I REALLY feel rejected!

My parents bought one of these for my son (age 4) that looked like my truck. They got it at Walmart. Unfortunately it did not survive my sons "offroading". All the wheels fell off. At least Ford builds them a little better.

Anyone know what this means:
I received a card that looks just like the box cover of Marv1 new "Toy" in the mail a little while ago that said the following:

Thank you for your interest in Built Ford Tough Insider. We want you to know that we have received your request for your F-Series Info Cards--and apologize for the delayed delivery time. However, you can expect to receive these items within 2-3weeks.

Then listed a phone number to call with any questions.
I never requested any info on this even though I was interested in it after you guys talked about it here awhile back. Could this mean that I have been enrolled in the program and am just waiting for my passwords/id and whatever else?? Just struck me strange to get this out of the blue all of a sudden.

Any ideas??

FM40 single in/Single out the side.Clear Corners just installed.Pretty much stock now but waiting for performance mods to include FIPK,,Superchip, new wheels/tires and new audio.

 

Well, My apologies... All is forgiven, I called the program, only to find that they HAD invited me, but sent the invitation to an old address of mine! They straightened it out immediately, got me in the system, and I should have my Die-cast model in about a month! Can't beat that for service!!

Thanks Marv for bringing my jealousy factor out and getting me into action so now I, too, can have one of those mini-babies!

I logged on to the "Insider" site after receiving my invitation about three months ago. It does have some good stuff there but nothing you can't live without. I haven't received my diecast yet but I'm not too disappointed if it's going to be a maroon standard cab. Look for it on Ebay!

I received one also. good quality but I own a Supercrew, I would rather have a diecast of that, but it was a nice gift.Still won't make up for defects in my truck.

I got the insider program invite in the mail a few months back tried to get on the web site and it didn't work so I sent the thing off in the mail and got a post card saying I would get my F-Series info cards in 2-3 weeks about 2 weeks ago so I'll be checking my mail to see if I get a die cast truck and let you know if I do get one.
