Congratulations!!
Wish I was posting pictures already!
Having two previous Raptors what is your initial impression of the new one? Let's not start the Gen 1 Gen 2 battle again. Just curious of his thoughts between the two.
I thought my truck was bad being released on 12/17 and not moving yet. Must be in line behind yours.

Our first order was built oct 14th and currently here in Pa at the rail yard waiting for it's convoy...
Well as I've been posting for what seems like E V E R now......... my truck was built 11/26 and has been released since 12/17........... sitting...........waiting..............not lonely of course.............. at the dreaded Ramp 59.............with ZERO movement or updates. *sign*
All the...
Personally not a fan of the Ruby. Truck looks great but just not the color for me.
Congratulations!
I think the Ruby would be one of the colors that would look good with some decals.
I ordered the magnetic but then switched to the AG. Some of the magnetic pictures look great and some don't. I was really on the fence after switching but the more I see the AG the more I think I made the right choice.
Did you ask them what the AG was in service for? I'm thinking since the...
Since it's a drop ship unit you need to contact who ever you bought the vehicle through. The dealer that's handling the delivery gets a minimal fee to receive the truck, clean, prep and do the delivery. By minimal that fee is usually around $200
Yes sounds like start stop. Remove your foot from the brake and the truck is running ready to go before you hit the gas pedal.
You're dealer didn't go over that when you picked the truck up?
For those that don't know I work for a Ford dealership.
Some of the members and I have been having a discussions regarding CA emissions and "Green" state emissions. Green states are states that require CA emissions on their vehicles. The Green state dealers (like us in PA) order an option...
They are shipping both. Just depends on when they were built/retrofit/released on when they shipped.
Our first order which is a retail is almost here. My truck, our second order, also a retail is apparently buried at Ramp 59
WTH?? That's crazy. Imagine if you'd have bought that truck and when you went to register it in NY they denied it. You'd have been screwed.
Thank goodness you found this out ahead of time.
Quick story.
I dealer traded a vehicle in here several years ago from a dealer in WV. When I...
Good comparison picture between your old tuck and the new on.
I really like the look of the front of the new Raptor.
Congratulations and thanks for posting pictures.
I'm living vicariously through everyone that's already driving their new Raptors.
Just more work involved for you.
Easier to make a couple phone calls ahead of time and then just tell the dealer what rate you found available. Usually they can find someone that can match it.
Just a suggestion. Shop for a rate and then tell your dealer what you got. A lot of times we have banks that will match a CU or local bank rate. It's a win win for you and the dealer. You do all of your paperwork at one spot and your dealer gets a small flat fee from the bank for writing the...
My truck is released as of 12/17 and has yet to show an ETA through any of the sources. It's still sitting at Ramp 59
Also our first order was built 10/14 and is currently on a rail car. Yet that truck also doesn't show an ETA
I would if it would do any good. Hell she can't even get me help and I've sold cars for Ford for 30 years. The reps for the dealers are pretty much just puppets.
Hopefully soon you'll get a vin and schedule date. You may end up lucky with a later build that it gets built, shipped and...
I just can't believe knowing some of the crap we've dealt with regarding franchise rules that CA dealers can sell to other states but some states can't sell to CA.
I'm going to try and get an explanation from my rep when she gets back from vacation.
If the truck was ordered as a retail unit it is price protected and you'd get the lower price.
All 4 of our allocation are retail orders. So even the last Raptor we get will be price protected for that customer from the original order date.
