I gotta say this is going to be my first ford product purchased...and it looks like a utter ******* shit show at this point.

This is not a shit show from Ford. The Raptor is not available yet.

It is as simple as that.

You have a bunch of fanbois saying they know someone who knows someone who overheard another person say they ordered a Raptor. On another forum.

So many people are upset over this very small issue. You may think its bad now, just wait until you try to buy that $67k Raptor this year for $67k!

I'm not a troll...I want to order a truck. I've talked to 2 owners of dealerships that have had them in their families for decades. They tell me they can't put the orders in. People say they have proof and I have sent that along and was told those are not submitted orders. Both have had extensive talks with their reps, in different regions, and neither rep knows anything about the Raptor orders been accepted.

So again, instead of talking a bunch of shit, why don't you be of use and provide me with the proof so I can get a truck ordered.

Similar thing here. I have bought 2 brand new fords in the past but every dealer I talk to has no idea what to do and has no information on the ordering process. Nothing is available in their systems.

Instead of just proof please tell us how your dealer processed the order. What they went into or where they looked so we can give the information to our dealers. One dealer texted his regional rep and asked if I could wait for him to respond. He responded about 20 minutes later with there is no way to put in anything in the system.

I disagree. What I think is really causing the problem is that ******* spokesperson for Ford saying "Yes you can submit orders". And then the dealerships saying nope, or we have no Idea whats going on with order allocations.

I'm on the list at 2 dealerships. I'm number 1 at the 1st dealership, and like number 3 at another. 1st one has no ******* clue about whats going on and claims they haven't received anything in the way of option packages or pricing.

The 2nd doesn't have the pricing guide but does have the options guide. They just don't know their order allocation yet so aren't doing anything past that. Its aggravating to say the least at this point.

The 2009 Nissan GTR was less of a pain in the ass to get info and ordered than this.

Well then I guess your dealers are just a bunch of big meanies. Maybe you should go to dealer 2 and tell them you are #1 at another dealer and that they have no ******* clue on how to run a dealership. Put your cards on the table. Tell them you know on the internet Raptors are being sold left and right.

I have no doubt the dealership will quickly get in line and order that Raptor right away once they know they are dealing with someone in the know.

I am #1 on a waiting list a my dealer at invoice. My dealer called me yesterday and asked I wanted to put in my order and I told him to skip me as I have a 2016 Focus RS arriving in 3 months.

Anyway, I will ask him today if they submitted an order for the 2nd guy in line.
