Any of you guys with 2018 orders able to track through any means online yet?
From reading I guess Raptor orders won't show up in the COTUS and messaging Ford Service they show my order as "in processing"

Curious if everyone else is the same.

Mine doesn't show anything despite its a DORA.. I spoke to my dealer they said that my order number could change as well.. The order number on my DORA is just a temporary number to build out the spec... Starting to feel like this is Hog Wash.. I did deposited 500 bucks anyone had the same experience?

You won't get any real information until they start issuing build dates in mid June.

Ok thanks.
I'm probably a little overly excited. Haven't bought a new car since 2007 when I got a BMW 335i as my college graduation gift to myself lol.
Had a blast tracking that order, even signed up for a ship tracking service lol.

Yup, that and calling/chatting with Ford Performance are the way to track it. Your dealer can see the same info. But it seems like most are unwilling to "go the extra mile". One of the many downfalls of Ford letting any dealer sell their performance vehicles (although there are a few benefits).

Go to your dealer and request to see the "Vehicle Visibility Report" (its more or less the same info ford service on FB and FP see). But if you would read a few stickys on this forum you would be better informed. The order number is "made up" by the dealer and should stay the same (at least for tracking purposes). I don't know why you're trying to spread false info (you're whole "pre-order" thing) when you don't know at least the rudimentary info.

But as @Azholley pointed out in another thread; these aren't sure fire ways to ensure you get a Raptor. We don't know/can't confirm (as the buyer) the allocation of a truck for a dealer i.e. We have to take a dealers word that they have been given an allocation for our order. This process is extremely convoluted and it seems as though some get screwed. Where to lay that blame? On dealers that are not used to dealing with highly sought after performance vehicles and Ford for not being transparent to the consumer IMHO.

Because there is no such thing as a pre-order you dumb ****. Any dealer can enter an order into Ford's system(s). Does not mean it will get pulled. Anywhere else a preorder means you'll eventually get what you ordered. Not the case with any of Ford's performance vehicles; as there is an allocation process and it makes zero sense outside of Ford.

First off your English is ******* atrocious, second you don't know what the **** you're talking about. The order banks are open and orders (not preorders) are being placed. So you continuing telling people that is false is "hurting" others in their pursuit of a Raptor. It's giving credence to salesmen/dealers that are not being forthright in this process.
