Now that I got the build date yesterday, to be honest, I've been really happy and also somewhat discouraged. My dealer told me 4 to 6 month wait. So I was thinking a March to June delivery.
Ever since I ordered in November, I've been doubling my payments on my existing King Ranch because I wanted to get it paid off before financing the Raptor as I don't want to carry over that balance to a new loan. With that aggressive payment schedule, I was going to have it paid off just in time. Now with the news, I will have to pay off my loan next month to make sure I get the paperwork with full title ownership. Plus I either have to sell my KR or take the hit and trade it in (but waiting on what the IRS does with Sec 179) to figure what route will be best. All this has been sped up.....
I wasn't planning on this as I still have to pay for Christmas and taxes next month plus everything else. I probably have to dip into funds that I didn't really want to touch. So yes, well hell yes I want the Raptor early but it kinda caught me off guard and now I got to get the calculator out and do some creative accounting of my finances.
Still not a bad place to be in when it comes to what I am thinking will be a Raptor in February.
