In production for 2 months is this normal?

Getting a factory bedliner? If so, it may be causing the hold up. My friend just ran in to that. He canceled the bedliner and it got built. They allowed the delete because it's a major issue right now. Ask your dealership what's going on and if that's the cause, don't let them tell you there's nothing they can do.

No Bedline sir just the high package stock wheels. I’m going in to check today they usually don’t give much info, this forum is way more informative.

Patience is required, Grasshopper. It will get there. There seems to be an obligatory 2 month parking period for new Raptors. Mine sat from end of December until beginning of March.

Is that while it’s in production or after it’s been built?

Well that’s how ford works. They never have updates they gave me an update once it got built but it was over a month with nothing. If it’s in production it won’t be canceled,

I don’t mind waiting just not left in the dark. What’s one more month it’s already been 10 lol. Afraid it won’t be built or cancelled after 2023.

If you have a VIN, it WILL be built. Ford will leave you in the dark, for the most part.

I really can't remember what they officially listed as while sitting. Doesn't really matter. I do know after it was called "built", it sat in the rail yard a few weeks waiting for a truck to dealership.

Man, I hate to say it, but its best to just forget about it until it shows up. If you try to stay out of the dark, you'll only infuriate yourself.

You can see my signature for what I would consider to be worst case scenario. Honestly, just expect it to take forever and your life will be so much better! It really truly is worth the wait, man!

Good luck!

So you waited a little over 2 months what date did it say built in the timeline?

I got the email saying it was built on 9/18. I have a factory bed liner.

 

[Gator85]

that’s crazy. When you got it delivered was there anything wrong with it? Like dull paint or plastics from sitting out there for so long? Just wondering since mine was sitting for over a month and is now waiting on shipping.

Nothing wrong. Paint was corrected, ceramic coating, and PPF before I picked up. I don't get why you think the paint and plastics would be messed up in 2 months. It's been outside for the last 7 months and nothing is dull yet. You may get rust spots on paint if it comes by rail. There is a thread about that.

Can you send me the link to the thread? I was looking for it thanks.
