Interesting Raptor News

Huh? Ford Parts Suppliers get Snow Days! It can't be true...

 

[Ms. MI Raptor]

FWIW, my truck was built in March. It's currently on a truck in Dearborn heading north by the end of this week. It was supposed to be February production but I got bumped to March.

I also know of a 2014 Ruby Red Screw on a lot right now...if anyone would like to snatch it up. I'm sure it's an MSRP kinda deal tho since 1) it's on the lot and 2) no guarantee on availability.

Mine was built yesterday. Confirmed by Ford Service & SVT.
And it's almost the middle of March, just saying...

<---- Truck was built in March as well.

there is a new ford rep that just joined. Named crystal. Maybe she can give some insight on this

my original dealer stopped communicating with me entirely. I placed my order in January


Im thinking word had made it back to dealers that the raptor is now a high commodity, and any orders placed at invoice are NOT in the dealers best interest, thus leading to stories and excuses.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if a lot of your custom-ordered raptors end up on the lot at 5k over MSRP

Based on what I'm reading, my dealer is full of shit! No surprise there. It has been a fear that my truck will be delivered and sold out from underneath of me, without me even knowing about it. If that happens, I will be so pissed! Also, if that happens, I have no problem with putting my story out there for everyone to read and it will included dealership name & location, as well as the salesman's name. I'm a firm believer that word-of-mouth can make or break a business. Perhaps I'm getting ahead of myself, but I hope it doesn't come to that.

Do you have anything stating a build date? I'm not question you...I'm just trying to gather some ammunition for when my dealer wants to play his BS card.

I should've asked this question to everyone at one time, but do you have anything stating your build date? Just looking to gather info in case I have to use it.

I don't have an order number yet and I don't know the dealer's code. I ordered on 2/27. Shouldn't I have that info by now?

 

[Humvee21]

Were you provided a DORA when you ordered? Or at least a VOC?

 

[nh rapta owner]

If u ordered on 2/27 i wouldnt get to worked up yet most of us have been waiting months with no idea when things are going to happen.
