Saw a suggestion from @smurfslayer about posting an FAQ for Buying a Raptor. First and foremost... there is a tremendous amount of information shared within a number of threads over the last several years that's been super helpful to me. I don't proclaim to be an expert, but I have experience...

Thanks for sharing and thanks for service to this nation.

Fantastic! That's the best Prius I've seen in a long while. Congrats!

Congrats and welcome to FRF. Nice Prius indeed. Rockin it!:shakehead:

In the background, it lists the following: "Commonly offered add-ons include extended warranties, service and maintenance plans, payment programs, guaranteed automobile or asset protection (“GAP” or “GAP insurance”), emergency road service, VIN etching and other theft protection devices, and...

Interesting to see what happens with this... https://fordauthority.com/2022/08/ftc-will-not-extend-comment-period-for-rules-that-impact-ford-dealers/ in short, the proposed rule would prohibit motor vehicle dealers from making certain misrepresentations in the course of selling, leasing, or...

23MY Scheduling Begins for Dearborn on 9/1 23MY Job 1 Date Dearborn is 10/10 If it changes, usually there's a Fleet Distribution Bulletin that will provide updated information on Friday. Other information that I recently learned... Regular, allocation based scheduling is done on Thursday's...

Best of luck.

I agree... "potential"... sounds a lot like "maybe" which is another word for a "slow no."

Ambiguous at best.

My understanding is that when you are scheduled you obtain a VIN. The Order would have to have been accepted by Ford NLT 8/18. Cleanup scheduling is allocation that was carried over from a prior week because the plant schedule was filled up. Again, my understanding is if you have a VIN this is...

Final 2022 MY Orders were due yesterday, with Cleanup Scheduling set for 10/10/2022. It appears that they'll keep building 22 MY's through October assuming the parts are there when needed. If you get a VIN, then I think you're good. If not, I'm not certain how the MY 2022's are 'converted'...

Welcome to FRF. I miss my Gen 1 as well.

The video of the Ford Lightning crapping out after pulling a trailer for 60 miles was good enough for me. No interest in EV, even if they had a charger on every block.

The dealer should be able to login and get a view of commodity holds. In general - bed liners should be added aftermarket or by the dealer after delivery. Right now it could be nearly anything that causes it to miss getting picked up for scheduling. Keep in close contact with your dealer once...

Welcome to FRF.

My understanding is that if they were going to get an allocation, they would already know what it is. The dealers I've dealt with in the past knew how many they had when the banks opened. They made claims against those allocations. Anything beyond that is wishful thinking from my experience...

I believe that originally MY23 Scheduling was to begin this week but looks like its been pushed two weeks. 07/18/2022 - 2023MY Order Bank Open Date (DTP) 07/18/2022 - 2023MY Order Bank Open Date (KC) 09/01/2022 - 2023MY Scheduling Begins (DTP) 09/15/2022 - 2023MY Scheduling Begins (KC)...

I'm not exactly certain how allocations work. I'm familiar with a DORA, but until this year, never knew what the Customer Order Verification Program was. It appeared to just be the Order acknowledgement but there is some language included that confirms the Order Enrollment and that the claim...

Positive vibes indeed. Best of luck on both counts.

Welcome! Love the color.

similar story re/ cam phaser recall; although rental was a Dodge Charger. 4 days on the repair but it seemed like forever.

The longest i've waited is 8 months, shortest is 3.

Same here.

I found it difficult to find a dealer with an allocation. I did find one in MI and have received a Customer Order Verification from Ford Programs to the Dealer with my name and the Order Verification Status as Approved with an Authorization Number. Hopefully, this bodes well. I assumed that...
