Got great news yesterday!

[RaptorOBX]

I didn't tell my wife and let her believe that the blue loaner F150 I drove home while they prepped the Raptor was my new truck. She doesn't care and I don't have to get her approval thankfully.

It's easier to ask for forgiveness than it is to get permission!

Plug your VIN into the end of this URL and you will see your window sticker >> http://www.windowsticker.forddirect.com/windowsticker.pdf?vin=1FTFW1RG1LFB27064

Save the PDF. Once you take delivery, the online window sticker will no longer be available.

Dealer sent me a text with my VIN and said truck shipped out of Michigan on 6/5. I didn't think I was ever going to get this truck. I still have not told my wife I ordered it, guess she'll know soon enough LOL

Congrats, you will really enjoy it. Not sure if you will enjoy your wife though!

It will all be good. Worst case scenario, I will have to buy her one or something else like a Cayenne. I have been driving a beat up 2002 Taurus for years and she has been constantly telling me she hates that car and wishes I would get something nicer. I hope this meets the criteria of "something nicer"

Same. Drove an 01 Taurus until I got the Gen1 last year. Game changer. Women love Raptors - especially as a passenger, or if you’re lucky, as a driver.

She’ll change her tune after a few weeks in it if she isn’t down from the get go. One thing that’s true: either they love it or hate it, but if they like it, once they get a taste they will never want to give it up!

As long as we have the money and more, I’ll tell her what I’m shopping for and show her pics when I find it. She even jokes that most people ask, but doesn’t care. She’s naturally frugal but also not really educated on investing and stuff, and I make like 80% of our income and savings/investments as well. Anymore I buy her cars for her with minimal input. She would just drive an automatic Corolla if I left it up to her. I got her a CPO MDX for a kid hauler for our 10th anniv. Bought my Raptor two years later.

It's all good, we bought a farm to build a new house that's about 30 miles away from our current home. Every time we go out there we drive past a Ford dealership that has had an agate black raptor that she knows I like and she always tells me to go buy the truck already. I told her I built the entrance drive to the house with driving a raptor in mind. Here's a pic of her where she drove our work truck into the ditch on the entrance road while on Facebook live. I of course took a pic of her before I pulled her out with the D5 and she gave me the one finger salute.

How long ago did you order it?

 

[Lupa]

About February 20th. The dealer called me with a build date of March 18th and they closed the factory on March 20th.
