I think a good question to get answered & maybe some clarity on is…during a “normal“ Model Year (meaning a “non-launch“ year, such as 2018 or 2020), do the order banks for Raptors typically open up the same time as regular F-150’s in the Fall…or are Raptor order banks typically delayed in opening until early Winter (Nov/Dec) or in Spring (Apr/May)?? Past precedent should imply when the order banks for MY2022 will open.
Once that is determined, you can hazard a guesstimate as to when MY2022’s will be delivered…be it late Winter (Feb/Mar) 2022, Spring, or Summer of 2022…barring any unexpected events with the world economy, of course.
My guess is that if 2021 Raptors, that are expected late Summer or early Fall this year, are delayed until Nov/Dec 2021 or after…they will have their orders re-vamped & reclassified as MY2022 orders, but given priority over new MY2022 Raptor orders & first off the line as MY2022’s.
Considering the Bronco’s were delayed & changed MY’s already.
Food for thought. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
