My dealer last told me my truck should be arriving before the second week of February. A transport company has been assigned and it’s awaiting shipment. I was told this last week.

Will your salesman send you a picture or print out from VinView or DealerConnection? Mine sends me an image of the print out from DealerConnection and the update I got last Friday notes the truck as Sent Offsite with an End Date of Jan-29-2024. Obviously that date was wrong but wonder if you're showing further updates since you've been told it's awaiting shipment.

Here's a random truck I found from google images. I'm hoping you've gone the next line past "Sent Offsite"

With the folks who’s Raptors are already produced and sent off site, has anyone reached out to their dealership to get an update as to why they’re taking so long to ship? My dealership hasn’t been very helpful, they’re still under impression that it’s going to arrive by this Saturday LOL ‍♂️

I know prime sent the delivery schedule yesterday but a couple dealerships have 24 Raptors (blend dates in early Jan) coming in the next two weeks in my area (Houston) so not sure what’s really going on. They did say customer orders are coming first.
Unfortunately the dealers don't have a lot of info either (I am one). The best tool we have imo is visibility but it's not always accurate. You call your ford zone rep and they have no clue what's going on lol. Mine is still showing Feb 9th to the 15th. But that can change at any time. Highly doubtful as the trucks are usually on the rail for 2-3 weeks.

I didn't play the Gen 3 roll out game. How bad/how many times can/will these dates push from where they are now? I think Ill give it to EOM and then start looking for aggressive deals on leftover '23s.

Did you pay a deposit and sign a buyers order or agreement? Until the order is scheduled you won’t get a VIN. If it’s just 801A, I would trust that they have allocation as those are not hard to find or get.
Yes, 1K down and signed a buyers agreement. Yes, it is a 801 a. Thanks.

That’s a better financial decision anyway since there’s no significant changes but everyone is acting like it’s a whole new truck and dealers are marking it up accordingly.

i thought about doing that but every 23 on the locator is a higher invoice than the 24 I have ordered. Seems like everyone puts the moonroof on units and that's a deal breaker for me

Still showing dealer eta week 2/16 though so who knows lolView attachment 442975
I just spoke with the GM of the dealer I am getting mine from and he said this happened with he 2023 f250s as well. His rep is saying that this is all quality control but he feels as if there may be a part that they are waiting on but it can't be anything major because they are still producing more 2024s. Looks like we are in it for the long haul.

Are the seats the same as 2023 in the regular Raptor? I noticed on the tracker on the interior photos that those cloth areas on the seats appear to be leather now which I hope is true
