Wanted to share my Ford Raptor experience...I ordered my Raptor March 2018 with a $3000 deposit @ MSRP knowing it would probably be expected in November. I was first at my dealer here in CT. Order was entered into Ford system when the banks opened in August. Once November rolled around no truck, no build date, no nothing. After annoying my dealer for weeks their only response was that the regional rep said it wouldn't arrive till March?!?!?! Now, I know they bumped my order so they could profit from the markups on the first round of trucks. So they refunded my deposit. I placed an order on November 27 for another truck from a huge dealer in Kentucky. They assured me the truck would take 8-10 weeks to arrive. After 13 weeks of checking the status and contacting Ford performance relentlessly, my truck was assigned a build date and was awaiting shipping with an expected delivery date of 3/03. Bought tickets for 3/08 to fly out and pick up my truck. Of course the truck was delayed again with an expected delivery of 3/16. What a ******* disaster!!! I cancelled my order and found out that unless I had a medical emergency or death in the family my tickets could not be refunded. So i lost $400!! Crazy!! This was the first American car I have ever tried to purchase. I have owned over 40 cars in my lifetime (ex. 911gt3, 911 turbo, macan turbo, nissan gtr, 10 amg's etc etc etc.) I have never experienced anything like this. What a ****** experience!! I tried and realized that I will never even attempt to buy an American car ever again!!! I'm a patriot and really wanted to start supporting cars made in our country but to be honest this experience was the worst ever for me in regards to a car purchase. ****** service, ****** ordering system, ****** assembly planning, ****** everything. So long Ford Raptor forum members...its been real.
