GIRTHY, you know, because of the wide wheelbase

My salesman told me today that my build day is 4aug. I may indeed get the last silver screw raptor made.

CMPNS8N "Compensating" I'm sure that's what a lot of people think when they see men of short "stature" driving raptors, or convertible sport cars.

That means I'm either getting one of the last Silver SCREW's made in 2014, or I wont be getting anything. The salesman told me my build week is the first week of August with an approximate delivery date of 29SEP. Hope he knows what he's talking about.

Ordered: 4-1, VIN: 6-20, Build: 8-8, del: end of September(hopefully it changes to end of August)

Got my VIN 1FTFW1R66EFC80243! Too bad I will still be on my desert vacation until the middle of September. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Wow! Noah, I don't know what to say honestly. I am shocked at the generosity and support all you guys have demonstrated on this forum. I think in light of the recent circumstances with the blackhawk crash that killed Jacob Wykstra, and the friendly fire accident that occured the evening of...

It saddens me to report that another soldier has lost his life over here last night. My platoon were the first responders to the crash around 0100 in the morning local time. It was a catastrophic crash and a miracle that more people were not killed. The men on board were from my sister...

$15k Mark up! That must be some good crack they are smoking!

Port Lavaca! Small world, I grew up in Victoria. I've done a lot of fishing not too far from there at Powderhorn. Welcome to the forum. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Thanks for doing this Noah. While I don't have any family members that have died fighting for our country, I do have many "Brothers" that I have lost over here. I don't want to be entered in the raffle but I would like to recognize my most recent Brother who died over here. 1LT Brandon James...

Sounds good man, I should be back around the middle of October. I well definitely give you a holler once I get back and settled in. Do you know any good tint shops in the springs that use 3M tint? The closest I could find online was a shop in centennial. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Yet another reason why I will never live in California. They wonder why people are leaving that state by the hundreds. It's because of assinine crap like this. Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Darren, welcome to FRF! I too live in the Springs, when im not enjoying third world countries. Let me know what good wheeling spots you find in the area. I ordered a Silver SCREW over here and will be picking it up when I get back around October. I would prefer not to scratch the hell out...

12 years active duty Army. Coming to you life from Kandahar, 'Afgaristan' as us Infantry like to put it. Looking forward to coming home and picking up my brand spanking new Raptor!

I'm going to assume he's talking about the noise the truck makes if you are not wearing your seat belt while driving?

Glad to hear JB, I was worried you were going to go postal or have an aneurysm if you didn't get your truck soon.

Thanks! Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Is it possible to pick-up (see what I did there) your truck at the assembly plant? What does a one-way plane ticket to dearborn + gas cost vs. destination charges?

I apologize for my ignorance, but what do you mean by "if you get tax savings"? How would one get/not get tax savings on a trade-in vs. selling private party?

Six months! Is that the record for longest wait time from order to delivery?

Never thought I would say this, but... After reading all the heart-ache you guys are going through getting your trucks I am thankful I'm deployed and have nothing better to do than wait. Hopefully with the warm weather around the corner it will help to facilitate getting the back-log cleared up.

Ditto. Have you visited edmunds, truecar, consumerreports or any other websites to see what the going rate for a similar truck in your area is selling for? Try carmax national search on Raptors and see how many 2013's come up with comparable prices. Good Luck!

FWIW, I ordered one yesterday through Exchange New Car Sales (military). Sent from my SPH-L720 using Tapatalk

Salesman's response when I asked about a DORA; "Okay, don’t worry about that, that is not even close to a factor with our program and your delivery date. With a delivery date of 10/25 you will not need to worry at all about the timeline. We don’t give out a DORA, because our orders are...
