impossible as order banks opened up like 2 weeks ago. Your dealership must have taken your order but Ford was not accepting them until 2 weeks ago.

If I order in January, about how long should I expect it to be built and delivered?

I think he's asking about January 2019 not January 2018 since he wrote 'order' and not 'ordered'.

Correct

Sorry. Your question is a hard one. It is going to depend on the dealer and how many allocations they have. Lots of allocation means a better chance of it getting pulled quick. Without knowing, it could be anywhere between 2-7 months.

Correct

I checked my order status today, it is "Unscheduled clean". I will try again on Friday.

Same here. Best to ask ford performance Thursdays but you can wait till Friday if you want too

Chatted with someone in Ford Performance today. They said that as of 9/7 it was unscheduled. Soooo I'm not sure that anything has been scheduled. Looks like 9/27 is the date when things will begin like someone previously said.

Recaros = fuzzy perforated plastic suede inserts...nothin' more

I am not a fan of the Recaros. Especially if they only come in Blue.

Finally a clue about the standard interior without the blue alcantara package! Saw this vid today about the 2019 Raptor's new Trail Control feature. Shows a 2019 red scab flying around in the dirt. You can tell it's a 2019... orange Fox shocks, new applique tailgate and new shark fin. Here's a screenshot of the overhead video sequence. Shows the seats and they look exactly like the current 2018 standard seats with gray stripe on the side. So it seems the standard seats are not Recaros and only the blue alcantara package has Recaros.



Here are a couple shots of the 2018 interior for reference:




and here is the Recaro package:



Not a huge difference considering it has the same bolstering on the seat bottom as the standard seat but damn! That lightspeed blue alcantara is growing on me!
