Seeing as how I have no Raptor to test the latest snow storm in, I spent a little time on Google Maps. I have NO idea why Ford would ship vehicles destined for Denver that far South to bring them back North to virtually Brighton to unload.
None of this would matter if my Raptor was in my...
This morning my truck is now in Grazeland, Nebraska. I forgot to ask for a spelling on that city and can't find it on the map. I am not sure if it is coming to a depot in Colorado or as others on here have reported in Rolla KS but either way I am hoping the snow coming to Denver later this week...
A bold truck deserves a bold color, I think all the colors they have offered so far align well. Tan for what ever reason is just blah. I doubt seeing it in any person will change my opinion.

My Truck was built on the 11th, showed produced a couple days later and then started moving on the 19th. It was in Battle Creek, MI Friday and was in Provisio, IL this morning.
I am traveling on business the next two days, hopefully its in town by Wednesday night or Thursday when I get back in...
I had the Retrax, it looks great, the can on the inside though takes a huge amount of space at the front of the bed.
If I did a retractable again I would look at the USA Truck Covers unit, I think it has a small can.
That being said I plan on putting a Bakflip on my 13. I will be at SEMA...
My delivery just changed from October 22 to November 5. My truck was in Battle Creek, MI. as of late this morning. I am hoping to have it by next Sunday. I realize I ordered early (mid/late July) but it does not change the fact I am anxious!!

Ford, like most manufacturers (of various items) will build things, and then determine how they can remove cost. While I doubt it, I was wondering if Ford somehow got Fox to only put 1 ring groove in the shocks.
They are covered by the spring retainer, you would only know by pulling it...
When I call SVT they tell me my truck only shows a build date of the 11th and an ETA of the 22nd. Am I just hitting the wrong people to find out more specifics? Blood shared mine showed produced to him, yet when I asked SVT they said they were not able to see anything more specific??
I will...
Read the official 2013 order thread, like the 12, 11 etc, allot of the same questions are being asked regarding this process. I never went into the prospective thread, since i was an owner and am a second time owner, and apparently many others have not either...
I have called the SVT hotline...
Walker Evans has a Raptor and I saw on the Sons of Guns episode from last night Kristafor Ford has one. With a name like Ford what else would he drive...
I just stumbled on this thread in the Tech session. This should be a sticky for each new model thread that gets started. It would have answered several answers for me.

My only wish is that Ford had a way to track the steps...
I called Ford again this morning and they do not have an update since 10/12 that my truck was still in production.
My build date was the 11th, and assuming they started the last hour of the 11th I can see my truck not getting done until the 12.
From that point SVT tells me its 3-6 weeks...
My truck was scheduled to be built on the 11th, I called them Friday the 12th to see if it was done yet and they said not in the system. I asked them how long it takes to get it shipped assuming it finished later in the day Friday, they said 3-6 weeks!!
Needless to say, I took a deep breath, my...
Groove Ford on Arapahoe. The old internet guy I used for my GT500 (Phil Valancourt) at Courtesy is now there.
I tried to buy a 12 from Go Courtesy just before and they told me the ones they had were sold, only to find they were listed on eBay.
I am not sure what your priority is but...
Somewhere in Dearborn my truck now exists. Having built whole vehicles it amazes me it was a list of parts yesterday and now its together. I can't wait to have it arrive here in Colorado.

My dealer owes me a favor, I was going to ask them to sell me the Ford version of the Bakflip folding bed cover at cost. I think it is Part No: V9L3Z-99501A42-HA for a Raptor with 5.5' bed.
Can someone tell me what dealer cost might be? PM would be fine, i will not repost.
Thanks
Dennis
I like the sounds of this, my truck is scheduled to be built the 11th, plus 7 is the 18th. The dealer suggested it should be here on the 22nd. I hope they can do the 7 day turn like you had!
Dennis
The mod is simple, it just requires an alignment correct? Is it just toe or is there more to the alignment?
I was hoping the 13s would keep the multiple perch adjustments, i could see Ford eliminating the other two spots, sounds like we are safe?
