Thank God!

Thank God!

Hahaha, you have no idea. I pick up Thursday or Friday most likely. Im currently working on the "GoGo" girls for the bar drink occasion at my cabin....if no dudes make it, the outdoor hot tub will be overflowing with estrogen.

PS-I CANNOT SLEEP!! Imagine waiting nearly 5 months on paper from Oct-Feb, your truck finally arrives unharmed from transit, its PDI'd + Bed-Tred + F1 Bakflip ALL ALREADY HANDLED + It's already detailed/gas'd up---yet Im 1K miles away and have to wait another 2-3 days! Considering Ive wanted a Tux Sab since Spring '09 when I first saw one in a So-Cal showroom (with a 10K premium on a 5.4L!!!) I can wait 2-3 more days especially knowing its waiting for me as I type this message. "It's always darkest just before the dawn."

Congrats! Does this mean we don't get to read anymore of your fun rants?

You got a nice truck Quicksand. ... It was actually dropped off early this morning (or late last night) before we opened.

The Monday after Thanksgiving I was at the dealer when two 2012 SCrews rolled in on a hauler. Got the driver talking and he said "those things are quick!"

He'd dropped a Raptor after business hours, before, and took it for a little "test ride" in the lot.

Who knows if the shipping guy beat it up. Let him, as that is as close as the mooch will ever get to owning a Raptor. Sucks for him.

My dealer (Customer service manager of all people) WILL NOT provide me with the odometer reading on my Raptor as requested and promised. I guess that is an over the top request, what do you guys think....considering I needed it to confirm my freakn plane ticket!!?

Side note, are you guys seeing the BS Im going through by now?? Never fair when you have about 25 people at the dealer vs 1 guy.

My "rants"?? This is a public forum aka made for ranting/sharing. If you dont like it, leave.

I thought about it this morning and my dealer has "sicked" just about every swinging ****/slit they had on me since this deal started. Heck, look back a few posts in this thread and you will see the ***** at my dealer (who gave me more info than my salesman yesterday when my truck arrived btw) yet even he wont respond to my request in this thread about will my Raptor be stored out of the weather (snow/rain) until I arrive?? If you already paid 50K+ for a new truck (1st Raptor pmt begins next week and I dont have it!!) yet no one would respond or provide info....TRUST ME, YOU WOULD BE ******* PISSED, ESPECIALLY AFTER WAITING 4-5 MONTHS AND YOUR TRUCK FINALLY ARRIVED! Why is my frustration so hard to understand, give me a break!

It's their way or the highway and me as an honest good paying customer hold about as much weight as fart molocule floating in space. ZERO.

No consideration has been made by my dealer to grasp the fact that Im 1K miles away and havent stepped 1 foot in my dealer since 1997!!! Obviously Im going to have a few more basic verbal requests as a result. In this economy, I would bake the customer a damn cake if it meant keeping him/her happy. What is wrong with America, oh wait, go to my dealership and you will know.....


ONLY 2 MORE LONGGGG DAYS till I get my truck!!

Odometer will probably show between 10 to 25 miles, I'd guess. Your Raptor will be fine if it's outdoors for a few days.

Some thing's you might want to check:

*Passenger side front part of the frame ( behind the tow hook ) look for a scuff through the coating; saw it on a couple 2011s.

**Wiring harness tape with loose ends.

***Door seals that missed a yellow fastner.
