Might be, although they SHOULD be storing inside (or at least what they told me. McCarthy Ford. It was delivered mid March, but I have not been able to get up before this weekend due to school and work commitments.

Those Raptor logos are not expensive at all. I have a pair on my doors with carbon fiber inserts. Looks (better than) factory...

My truck arrived at the dealer yesterday! Tracker said estimated delivery date of 4/5 and it was delivered 4/3. Order on 2/9. Not bad at all. Now I have a torturous week of waiting until I can fly out to pick it up.


WTF...I ordered on 1/30 and has been "waiting to ship" since 3/15. It has an original estimate for delivery of 4/5 but when it got close Ford threw on an additional 28 days.

Dealer can't tell me anything. I'm wondering if there's something on the dealer side that is preventing it from shipping...like do they need to wait until a certain time before they are allowed to get another one in? I'm really questioning why it's been a month and no traction.

Has anyone traveled to Michigan to pick theirs up from Ford directly? I've asked the dealer but they said it's not possible...I'm just tired of waiting with no answers.

I've been scouring the inventories of dealers everywhere I can think of...if I find one that matches my spec I'm getting it...haven't put any money down at my dealer so if they can't deliver it and I find one I'm not waiting anymore.

It’s likely down to shipping. Many trucks including mine sit for several weeks until there are enough to ship at once. My dealer offered to pick it up from Michigan and drive it back, Ford absolutely does not allow that. It got there eventually. I know it sucks to wait but really don’t think it’s the dealers fault.

This is not an uncommon occurrence. You have to remember, the Raptor is an F150... And Ford produces literally thousands of these every day. So the shipping logistics can get complicated.

And you definitely cannot take delivery of the truck at the plant. Unfortunately, patience is a virtue here. It sucks, but once you have it you'll be happy as hell.
