Considering walking from order

Just got an email that my truck is built and ready to deliver. After waiting over a year, I kind of lost the excitement and my dealer just notified me that they mark up 10% because Ford gave them the truck at their cost and they need to make money too.
Any thoughts on what to do, not really interested in a 95k loan after taxes, title and dealer fees.
Thinking about just going with a 2023 Lariat full hybrid for 20k less.

I would flip it, but after all the costs, I'll maybe make 10 grand, maybe.

Dealers can be a real problem. Just insist that your agreed to pricing is from Ford at MSRP. I had to do it. I told them that by reservation with Ford they are responsible to provide it to those terms. It worked for me. If they are still reluctant, I would contact Ford corporate and request a dealer that will honor the terms. It matters not whether they make money or not. According to my dealer they did not make money at MSRP whether that is true or not it is not your issue. I bought mine at MSRP as originally agreed to by the Ford reservation process.
