Just saw this posted up a few mins ago.

If your order has been in production longer than expected or delivery dates getting bumped, this might be why. Also could be why some of our orders are being pushed out, that are not in production yet. Awaiting further details & context about this…(pic is from Dearborn facility)…

Couldn't these just be mules coming in from testing? Maybe they are doing heavy quality checks on real world stress on the chassis.

could have been adjustments/repairs/updates to first run of raptors they did until they got the QC/QA up to par.

Ok. Sorry to be a D**k but please be careful where these are coming from. I know the source who posted this personally and the "delays incoming" was not part of the original message. This could be a simple part change, torque installation issue, who knows.. appreciate you posting up such stuff, but please don't cause mass panic. My source is looking into this and if there's dozens of raptors at DTP being fixed still next week he will look into it for me so I can relay to you all. You have to understand manufacturing, I toured DTP a long while ago, out of let's say 100 f150s every hour, there are dozens getting something tweaked ect as well to. Nothing is perfect it's all part of quality control tests during final line. This may not cause a single delay

LOL. Are you the only one with a "source." Maybe your source is cheating on you with the guy that posted the same pic.

No worries & no offense taken…to be fair, I did say that more info & clarification was needed…and didn’t imply that anything was definitive or confirmed…just that further investigation into the post was warranted. As in, stay tuned & let’s find out. If anyone has further input on it…great, by all means provide context & clarity! I appreciate the info.

To be fair the person who posted that on FB did say delays incoming but wouldn’t say why because he/she wanted to confirm. The whole chips in the frame thing was just a joke that someone posted.
