    Anyone know when 2024 order banks open?

    I am willing to bet that your dealer had no allocations when you placed your order. I ordered my 2023 in Sept of 22 and it was built in March of 23 and promptly damaged by the carrier driver to such an extent that Ford took it back. Another allocation was issued by Ford and the replacement was...

    Question on removing 37 graphics

    Let it sit out in the un and get good and warm, start at an edge and pull back at so as your peeling the back of the removed side is touching the unpeeled side. The residual sticky part was enough to stick to my fingers and pushing slightly against the body I kinda rolled it off. Came off in one...

    Arrived at the dealer today...and the carrier driver does over $7000 damage NOW THE REST OF THE STORY

    OP, I’m sure you can talk them off of those 5 stacks. Says “on the lot”. https://www.victoryford.com/inventory/new-2023-ford-f-150-raptor®-4x4-supercrew®-1ftfw1rg7pfb48488/ I did look at that one actually, I just cant get past the naked tailgate. Thanks for showing it to me though!

    I have easily spent over 100 hours looking for a loaded rapid red 37 with the only restriction of no blue interior for MSRP. Haven't found ONE or it would already be in my garage.

    No financing, but with the 24's starting production in mid October I may just wait. I have already been waiting since August of 22. Looks like possible changes are headlights, tail lights and larger infotainment screen like the lightning.

    AND Today the bid date gets pushed a month into late June with no firm date. Supposedly Raptor builds on hold for parts constraints. I am tempted to cancel at this point and just order a 24 when they become available since a mid cycle refresh seems likely. Frustrating....

    Got my VIN and build date today, May 22. As noted above I took off the bedliner to remove one less possible way to get damaged on a carrier. Hopefully no new additional constraints. I ordered my first one in September of 22, its astounding to me that 7 months later they STILL have the same...

    First Post, Ford Dealer has been no help

    Find another dealer. Anyone who tries to tell you a oil change will be correct a misfire has no idea what they are doing.

    My understanding is that it is getting shipped back to Ford. Not clear what happens from there. Checking this morning my build is a Priority 1 so hopefully I will be scheduled soon.

    I think I am going to go with the bedrug. A friend at the fire station showed me his today and he loves it.

    Thanks all! Cancelling the spray in bedliner tomorrow. May even go with a bedrug. I have an everyday driver F150 for hauling duties.

    SMALL UPDATE: I am supposedly in production again in May with a likely June delivery date. Does anyone happen to know if they move the trucks off-site to do the spray in bedliners? If so I think I am going to delete the option to eliminate both the additional time to produce and another...

    I can only guess it was from sitting for two months in Flat Rock but yes, I was not impressed with the shape it was in as delivered, MINUS the damage. LOL

    I have no idea. He even managed to hit the drivers side door handle. Must have been some kind of sideways coming off.

    Thanks for listening to my whining guys. I get it, its just a material thing but I saved for three years for this and did tons of research to get exactly what I wanted. And I almost did.....

    My dealer called me this morning with exciting news, they could see that my Raptor was finally enroute to my dealer in Northern Indiana after sitting in Flatrock for almost two months and said it will be here in the late morning. Super excited, I get a call about noon and am told the guy taking...
