impatiantly waiting newbie

hi guys

Been researching for over a year and finally got the green light on my new 2013 raptor. hurricane Sandy was the final nudge on totaling out my suburban.

I just place my order today from a dealer here in NY. Owner is a friend of a longtime client and friend, so I'm confident it will get here as soon as it can.....although nothing would be make me happier than it being on the lot, but here on the east coast everyone is trying to get 2k over msrp claiming they are similar to pink unicorns and very rare.

if not for this hookup locally i would have used matt over great lakes ford in michigan. great pricing and a super guy.

Any ways....cant wait to start modding it already. look forward to chatting with some of you.

wheels and tires 1st....(how big can I go without any suspension mods?)

I figure ill wait till about 15k miles to make sure engine is ok, then sw headers to tips true dual exhaust.

after a year or so Im thinking full suspension upgrade....we shall see whos at the top of their game by then.

Good luck waiting till 15k miles before the exhaust upgrade...SW sounds great and you'll want it early! Welcome by the way....

I hope you got a great price. There's a dealer in Rochester that does Invoice.

Anyhow, Congrats!

Ordering a Raptor extends your life a few months. You'll think time has stopped as the weeks creep by.
