Sounds like a run on Raptors finally. Lol. I actually live about a 100 miles from the factory and Im going take the tour again on my build day and see whats going on down there. Ive been stalking the place since last June so I know the area and all their hiding places very well now.

I’m joining this group. Basic back story, I was part of the 10/11 group of MY21 dudes…Great crew! I ordered my 22 Raptor in November but ended up buying an amazing STOCK MY21 LFG from a local dealership at 5k ADM.I waited and watched from “in production”, “built”, “shipped” and stuck in the rail yard for over two weeks. I got it a month a ago!! An amazing and perfect truck!! Tinted the windows, put on a bed cover…new antenna!! Best vehicle I ever owned hands down…until I totaled it last Monday. I can’t believe I did it…swerving to miss a deer in the rain and fog and ended up in a ditch hitting a culvert at about 45 mpg. Anyway…I was gonna buy my original 22 and sell it immediately…NOT ANY MORE!!! I’m back in the system and I know this process well. I’m not even thinking about another vehicle because my GEN 3 Rap was a boss…period!! Sigh…so I’m in production as of today…let’s see how things move this time around. Cheers and good luck to all of you…these trucks are worth the wait!!!

Damn that’s quite the ride. Glad you’re ok, and I’d hate to be going through this process again

Hey, your Raptor saved you! I would buy again too! Glad you are okay!
Did you still nail the deer? Any pics of the aftermath? Safety features all work like the should have?

Coincidentally, my Raptor called the cops…she showed up and said, “your truck called me@…and then said…”I thought these things were supposed to jump over ditches” lol lol…grrrrrrrrrrr

I assume the airbags all deployed? Lost a brother in law in a Jeep accident similar situation. Airbags all failed and the seatbelt tensioner didn’t work, he was ejected…

Yessir…multiple airbags. Not a scratch, just a slight bruise on my stomach from the seatbelt. Sorry for your loss bro…
