Got my VIN and delivery date today!

My ETA remains steady at 02 Jan '17

Works for me. My tiny dealer just has the single allocation. Granted I'm screwed if she decides to ask for more $. But I'm content in that if she does that, I walk and go buy something else. Granted it won't be a Raptor, but i'll have the peace of mind to know that I didn't pay over MSRP to pad the pockets of a car dealer.

I never once contemplated placing my order without getting a signed document that included the out the door price and all of the options. I also very willingly gave a $1000 deposit as consideration to make the contract legally binding. My dealership would have no legs to stand on if they tried to back out of the deal now. It would cost them dearly!!!! Others may want to try the same approach to avoid getting played. I feel bad that others are getting ****** around.

Paper doesn't buy you much, I've had it happen countless times with signed documents, GM approval, deposits, etc

They give your deposit back and go radio silent, if you want to do anything beyond that you have to take them to court, by then the car in question is long gone

You are 100% correct in that you might have to take them to court, but just the threat of doing such, or a letter from an attorney, will typically get you what you want because they know they are legally bound. At least you have options in your favor. It is the customers decision as to whether or not they want to exercise them.

I ordered 3rd week of January, no beadlocks. Facebook girls have my order but not pulled. Anyone else from this time frame starting to get scheduled?

I'm pretty sure they are holding my truck as punishment for "leaking" the HP/TQ #'s before they wanted them out. : )

From Ford Chat today: "We're still waiting for your Raptor to be released from the plant to ship out. Hopefully it will be soon! The ETA hasn't updated yet. Let's check again next week!"

If you have a vin is there a site that breaks it down for you? Im sure this was covered here somewhere but I can't seem to find it

 

[ronniegilbert]

Yes. There are many sites that will do that. Just google the topic and you will find it.
