Take it for what its worth. I do not know how credible this is but my dealer said Ford will only be shipping customer orders to start. Still holding stock orders on all 2024’s. This is how it should be and should have been right from the start. If true those waiting better hope their orders were entered as “Retail” customer orders with your name associated to the order and not stock orders the dealer will just sell to you.
I placed an order in January for a 24 37 package - but - my name isn’t anywhere on the order. I have a deal sheet at MSRP plus tax tag title and doc fee. My build date is March 27th according to my rep but they told me in January the raptor would be at least 6 months out. What are the chances they will honor the deal sheet I signed? I have no way of tracking the order myself and have to call/text my rep for updates.

Anyone notice that the wheels on the 24’ 37 Package changed on the ford website from the same as the R wheels to the beadlock that was available as an option on the base model Raptor from 21-23? I might have to pass if they deliver different wheels than what I ordered and just keep my 22.

Did your truck come with these wheels? The website is showing different wheels when you do the 37pp build
You’re about to get a bunch of “read previous post” because this was discussed a few weeks ago. The wheels never changed they are the ones displayed on the 24 reveal… the website just had 23 wheels on there still with a big caption stating “image not shown to production” and “may change”

To your point… just referencing 2/21 timeframe and post 804-ish… he can go back and look at video of the stored 24 Raptors… good views of wheels, trim, colors, etc. @atlantaraptorx

I ordered a 24 37pp in January, i spent a lot of time reviewing the website as I did my build. However, I didn’t base my choices on a video reveal from last summer. I based my choices on the information provided on the website. The wheels on my 22 37 pp are nicer - IMO - than the 24 37pp. The 24 37pp wheels look like the optional wheels only available on the base model of previous years and a downgrade from what I was expecting.

Its makes sense that is how they would ship and I hope thats accurate. Do you know if that his been the case for past years? Or historically did they ship altogether?
Actually in past years stock orders shipped first and pissed off all customers who ordered seeing dealers get trucks to sell with huge ADM’s. But retail orders did ship shortly after. My dad and I both received our 2021’s in September of 2021 to the same small dealer on the same day. Pretty crazy considering how hard it was to get trucks at that time. My 2023 came in my the end of January of 2023. 2024 it seems Ford is punishing the dealers for charging ADM’s and not moving the inventory months ago.

My dealer also said Ford has been making them take Lightings to get Ford Performance vehicles. I know this is true. My small dealer has had 3-4 Lightnings. They have trouble selling that many at a in my area. They always seem to have a steady flow of Raptors though.

I’ve bought all my new Fords from them as well as my dad. A handful of Gen 3 Raptors. I trade them back in to them which they like. They sell MSRP to local customers and had been charging ADM’s to out of areas buyers. I have been bugging them for an R since before you could order. Order entered on day one. They got 1 R last year I think they sold to a broker for big money. Number two R for them is mine and going down the line today.

Lots of XL, STX and XLT dealer stock has already shipped and on lots.
I don’t see any actual 2024 trucks on the lot when I search Car Gurus? All “in transit “. That doesn’t mean anything. Can you provide link to “lots” of these trucks?
