We'll get more information as more trucks get shipped, but the first stock order we saw hit the dealership took a week. If these were normal times then I could see them taking longer to pool vehicles together to ship more efficiently, or it could be they wanted to get those stock orders in dealers hands asap. But I really don't want to believe it's going to take over a month after production. There's not a lot of Raptors just sitting on the lot at DTP so they must be moving them quick
5-10 it seems as any one given time, 4-5 seemed to be sitting waiting to be shipped, and another 2-5 sitting either getting repairs on some small things or just sitting in that lot for offsite 3rd party stuff- spray in, covers ect. so correct on that, i really do not think itll take over 14 days to be delivered. Apparently from my spy session friday, most of those have been moved/gone already and its only been 3 days!

FYI - Spray-in is done on site and part of the production.

I knew it was onsite I thought but wasn't sure if it's done right there at the plant assembly line or done on another building on the property so kinda onsite but scheduled later ect. But thanks for confirming
Not to side-track but didn't the spray-in look better than previous iterations? I feel like a lot of people complained about the quality of the spray in the last few years but newer pictures/videos it seems pretty fine to me

My build date is also 9/6 (Leadfoot 37/loaded) Dealer expects delivery by the end of September or first week in October. This is a dealer order I was offered the first priority because of being a long time customer. I will be trading my 17 802A. I am still apprehensive about this because I will be leaving Eibach and Deaver +3 and a Warn Winch on it.
Cut your losses with the Eibachs & Deavers. However, can you remove the winch & reuse on new truck?

Congrats on your order. Everything I've seen and heard so far, estimating 1-3 weeks is a safe bet depending on location and if it's being delivered via convoy (truck) or rail if your multiple states away from Dearborn. The online tracker will give out a estimated delivery date (4-6 weeks on average after build)but from the few so far delivered seems to be 1-2 weeks depending. We had an f150 built on 7-21-21 and it showed up on Monday 3 days ago here in Indiana.
I ordered on the very first day 6/11 just got a build date 10/4 so here’s hoping it’s here within a month of the build date. I was at the rouge plant last week and saw a number of Raptors coming down the line. PS don’t miss the show, quite impressive
3rd Raptor trying to trade it in under 100k miles since sept 2019!!

Brother, I hope you're right cause I am sitting at 12 days post build date. Also watching 9 other VIN's with build dates 07/26-07/29 and only 1 is showing "built" status. These VIN's are also showing "Est delivery" dates from 08/15 to mid September.

Will the system always update when trucks get loaded on delivery trucks or rail cars?

Once loaded they should update for sure. That's why I'm thinking there either sitting around which is doubtful or the tracker is having issues which I think is the case. I know for a fact there were 5-6 sitting around when I was kinda close to there LOL. I know for a fact I never saw any being built Friday late shift.....

This is what I was talking about a few weeks ago. The first run of dealer stock could be sitting for a while to be shipped. Back in 2017 same thing happened. Guys had dealer stock orders and were stoked that they were getting their trucks built while retail orders we not being built. There were a few guys that ended up getting their dealer order after some retail orders that were built after. Just saying first isnt always quicker due to qc holds and first runs.

I understand, but my order is a retail order as well as least one of the other trucks I have been following.
