Wow! Unexpected but exciting, VIN is now issued and a build date of 11/14. So I'm guessing it will be here before the end of the year?

Congratulations. If I remember correctly, you ordered from Mac Haik in Georgetown, TX? If so, I was curious to find out what number you when you placed your order. I've got an order in through Mac Haik as well and I'm number 5 in theri allocation. My order has been accepted by Ford, but no build date or VIN yet as of today.

Yes, correct. At the time I was second, they told me an employee had built one on the computer but had not put a down payment. So I'm not sure if that order held or not?
I thought they originally told me they had an initial allocation of 4 but I may be wrong.
Congratulations on the order! What did you get? I did SCREW Avalanche with pretty much everything except, tailgate applique, graphics, heated steering wheel, maybe one or two I missed?

July 30th here. From what I understand Ford is pulling them manually. The order submission date looks to be irrelevant right now. Obviously it has to be a "clean" order, and your place in the dealer allocation line matters too, but other than that im not sure on the science. Not sure how dealer selection is determined.

I can tell you Ive only herd of one SCAB VIN on here. The rest have been SCREWS. All we can do is wait.


The earliest build dates I've seen is beginning of October I doubt the truck will sit for that long. So I would say a late November build date is considered second batch but maybe I'm wrong

Didn't order banks open in late August? How did your dealer submit in July? Did you have the dealers first allocation?

Once they start rolling these trucks off the line I'm thinking we just need an (ok to buy) from ford and we will start seeing shipping dates


Molten Orange from NW Indiana




Stoked to see two more SCAB build with VINs. I too agree the order placed date doesn't hold as much weight as i had thought it would. With build dates already into mid November, cutting it close to get before new year for us folks still waiting. For those deeper down the line, looks unlikely.

we had 3 orders:

SCREW (#1 of 7 allocations at bigger urban dealer) - Ordered 7/20 / Pulled 8/18

SCAB (#2 at same dealer as above) - Ordered 7/20, no updates

SCAB (#1 at small dealer, only allocation) - Ordered 8/16, no updates

Removed cf on all orders early on...

Order scheduled with CF.....

I just received my VIN and build date of 10/31 from Ford Service..... I had considered pulling the CF option off, but left it in there and the order just pulled. Hopefully that means that they are starting to get more capacity of CF. Ordered 7/22.... here is my config:

SCREW
White
802A
Technology pkg
moonroof
carbon fiber
tailgate step
forged wheels
heated steering wheel
heated 2nd row

Similar to yours but with fewer options....so Avalanche Gray Screw with the 802A package at MSRP. I've been without a truck for many years and can't wait to get the truck...unless of course the wait kills me first.

What the Heck! I ordered on 7/25 and the order is still sitting there. I selected a large dealer who sells tons of trucks and specialty vehicles like the GT. Was told when I completed my order that I was the first Raptor order and 1st on the list for 6 allocations. Can’t believe that this dealer has no orders with a built date yet. Starting to think I’m getting passed up intentionally so the dealer can put some Raptors on the floor with a higher price, is that possible?
Anyone that ordered in July still waiting? I ordered a white screw with all options.

I ordered on 7/20. Dealer told me the truck will be built in November when their first allocation is given. The zone reps seem to be handing out allocations monthly. Some dealers get one or 2+ others get none. Your dealers zone rep can tell you if your name has been submitted for an allocation. Sometimes they will conf you in with the zone rep.
